Wax On! Wax Off!

I completed another pre-winter chore today! A chore that honestly I loath, waxing my car.  Actually, I really dislike any sort of car detailing, inside and outside, just don't enjoy it.

However, that being said, the waxing of my car heading into winter is a requirement for me. I want to protect it as best I can from the ice, salt and the New England weather but also I find it helps to repel, to some degree, snow and makes it easier to clean off the snow too.




DONE and look at her shine!  The marks shown along the side, below, is just a reflection.  She looks good!


Let it snow!

** UPDATE**

It's Sunday morning and it's been raining off an on.  Just look how the water just beads off the new wax job, so nice -

Wax On, Wax Off!

I took advantage of the outstanding warm weather we had yesterday and took care of yet another Fall project!  One that I really don't like doing, which might explain why I procrastinated and waiting as long as I did to get it done - wash and waxed my car!

As much as I loath doing this task, I like to have it completed before the snow flies and the roads are covered with salt.  Plus it's a great feeling when it's finally done.


You can see the effects of what a nice coat of wax does to help protect the vehicle.  With this mornings rain, you can see how nicely the water beads up and rolls right off!  The snow does similar, plus the wax makes cleaning the snow off the car that much easier too.


On to the next chore...
