Dad failed if … You can't wax your car

Men's Fitness,  August, 2004  by Nate Millado

Step 1: Prep

Even the Karate Kid knew the value of a good shine. Thoroughly wash, rinse, and dry your car. Then park it in a shady spot.

Step 2: Wax On

Apply a quarter-sized clump of carnauba wax onto a damp sponge. Rub the wax onto the car, using small circles.

Step 3: Wax Off

When the wax dries to a haze, use a soft towel to remove it in the order it was applied. Reapply after 90 days, especially for red, black, or white models--colors prone to UV-ray damage. Now even Mr. Miyagi will be pleased with your ride!
