How to Wax a New Car
Waxing a car isn’t a particularly complicated process, it just takes a while.
General Tips for Waxing a New Car
Make sure you set aside a couple hours in your day to get it just right. Also, it’s best if you do it in a shady area like a garage for a few reasons. First, the sun might cause the wax to dry too quickly, especially if you attempt waxing on a hot day, and it’ll be harder to buff the wax off when you’re finished.
Second, any rain will make the wax start to run onto surfaces you didn’t intend to wax (you should only wax painted surfaces, not windows, mirrors, or lights) and you’ll have to clean up the mess.
Finally, you’ll likely be more comfortable spending a couple hours in a shady garage than out in the elements, so it’s best to wax your car indoors.
How to Hand Wax Your New Car
Now, onto the process itself:
Wash the Car
There’s no point in detailing a car that’s covered in debris. Plus, you want to remove contaminants and avoid making scratches on your car’s paint, which can happen if you apply the wax while there’s still dirt on the car’s surface.
All you need for this step is a sponge, a bucket of water and car washing detergent. Once you’ve washed the car, make sure you dry it just as thoroughly, taking special care to mop up any areas where water can pool.
Clean the Paint
Now, you want to remove any contaminants or debris that might remain. There are a couple ways to do this. One way is to rub a special surface prep pad over all of the car’s painted areas.
Another option is to use WD-40. Simply spray it over any spots with debris and it should clean the surface without harming the paint. Just be sure to use soap and water to clean off any spots you sprayed the WD-40 on and let them dry.

Is It Painful To Get A Bikini Wax?
High-quality wax and an experienced esthetician can make the process that much more comfortable. So be sure to attend licensed salons with positive reviews, and request an experienced esthetician for your first time.
As far as aftercare goes, being gentle is the biggest factor to consider. Avoid wearing tight or textured (i.e. lacy) underwear for the first few days and instead opt for comfortable, cotton undergarments that allow your skin to breathe. You'll also want to give the area some gentle exfoliation and moisture.
Breakouts, ingrown hairs, and bumps may also appear after your bikini wax, but the good news is that the proper pre- and post-wax routines can help to prevent them from occurring. For instance, exfoliating the bikini area before your wax and cleansing it afterward will help to reduce the risks of side effects.
