Default Does Liquid wax hurt your paint?

I used to date a girl that worked for an automobil claims service. Many of these people delt with cars all day long. She said that the guys who worked there told her that liquid waxes in the long run, hurt your paint job. Not all the time but it can do to some chemical that is in it to keep it in liquid form that the pastes don't have. So they would recommend that you use paste type wax only.

Anybody else heard of this?

Waxes in any form are a sealer. It protects the paint. The difference between a liquid and a paste wax is the liquid which in most cases is nothing more than water.

I haven't heard of that happening. Maybe if you get debris mixed in with the wax or applicator, but then again the same could happen with paste.

Only way it will hurt the paint is if you put it on and not buff it off. Butsome dumbbell who will do just that. Read the warning labels on products and you will get the idea..[sm=chattypair.gif]
