Should I prep my paint before waxing?

Evaluating the condition of your finish will let you determine the steps needed to prepare it for waxing. Just because your paint has no major scratches or other obvious signs of damage doesn't mean its surfaces are as flawlessly smooth as when they were new. There are many kinds of subtle surface defects that, if not corrected, can prevent you from restoring that perfect gloss.

There are two kinds of surface defects to look for. Those above the surface of the paint include: road film, bugs, tar, tree sap mist, dirt, dust and fresh bird droppings. Those below the surface include scratches, swirl marks, oxidation, stains and etching from acid rain, old bird droppings and other deposits.
