Just get my new car. The dealer mentioned that it's already waxed before delivery. But to me it feel like it still easily get dirty. I'm owning a white car. How do you maintain it? Using wax??

Currently I had to wipe every evening when I reach home. You guys did the same thing? Please share how you maintain on white cars.

Wax doesn't means your car won't get dirty easily... In fact, somehow prolly after rain, even worst especially in our hot weather... The melted wax and the acid rain makes a perfect combo in staining your car.

Sounds nice. Where you get this? I never see this in supermarket. By the way, I was thinking of turtle wax. Good or not?? I'm planning to send my car for a wash and wax myself in my condo parking.

try to avoid turtle wax. They are really not that great. Though I still have their TUrtle Wax Ice Liquid Synthetic Polish.
