It won't need waxing by then. It would need a new paint.
This will be my first time. When I bought the car, I was given a slae pitch for Perma Plate that would protect the paint if there are bird dropping, etc.
The dealer offered 7 year warranty and reduced the price and so I took it, only to be told when they handed out the bottle when I picked up the car, that I was supposed to follow up by applying it every 6 mons.
Can you believe they wanted $700. I didn't show any interest - I knew places where I coudl egt it waxed - and so they came down to $260, which was still a rip off but I thought for 7 years warranty, it wasn't a bad invetment since it woudl save me trips to car detail places where I woudl have to sit and wait. That was Aug 2005. Since then I have grown up quite a bit and I have become mean sometimes by necessity :)
Withing a week afgter I got the car, the debris form a truck came flying to my frong when this idiot guy cut in front of me, changing the lane. It turned oput that they were dirt formed into little rocks. They broke apart upon hitting my car and the damage was not ntoicebale. I think that wax helped prevented scratched.
Soon afetr that, there was bird dropping, a bunch of them, at a grocery store where I never get any.
I am not doing to make it look good. I do it for preventive maintence of the paint.
I am the last person who cares about how a car look as long as it is function well but most of the world judges you based on how your car looks. I don't even care about that. I am just for maintenance though it's been more than 12 mons since I bought the car. I was supposed to do the first follow up in six mons. After this, I'll probably do once sometime next year, if I do it at all.
