Car Waxing
Hand car waxing to protect paint, boost gloss and help repel dirt between washes. We prep the surface, apply quality wax by hand and buff for a smooth, slick finish. Works well after tint or PPF installs and is available by appointment for Gilroy and nearby areas.
Why Hand Waxing Matters
South Bay sun, agricultural dust from Gilroy's farms, and freeway debris constantly attack your paint. A quality hand wax creates a sacrificial barrier that takes the abuse instead of your clear coat. The result: your finish stays glossier longer, water beads and rolls off easily, and light swirls become less visible.
We've been waxing vehicles since 1993, and we know which products perform best in California's climate. Carnauba delivers deep warmth on dark colors, while synthetic sealants offer longer durability for daily drivers. We'll recommend the right choice for your paint type and driving habits.
Our Process & Turnaround
Every wax starts with a thorough wash to remove surface contamination—dirt trapped under wax causes scratches, not protection. We then dry by hand with microfiber towels and inspect the paint. Wax is applied panel by panel in thin, even coats, allowed to haze, then buffed to a slick, reflective finish.
Most vehicles take 1–2 hours. Drop off in the morning at our Holloway Road shop and pick up the same afternoon. We recommend waxing every 2–3 months to maintain protection—many local customers schedule quarterly visits for consistent results.
