2024.1.21 Sunday and Sunday: DIY waxing after washing the car

 September 4, 2024
Today in Beijing, it is about minus 7 degrees Celsius during the day. I went to Rongke Office Building B1 to wash my car and then waxed it myself. Last time I called in mid-to-late September 2023. Let’s call it once before the Spring Festival in 2024. In early February, we will have to travel long distances back to our hometown in Jilin for the New Year. This waxing is a little special. It is the first waxing after being cut on the right side in a field on September 24, 2023. Pay special attention to the painted areas when waxing.↓

↑ It was cold and there were few cars in the basement. After washing the car, I chatted with the car wash clerk for more than 20 minutes, and then found a place to wax it DIY. On weekends, there are few people working overtime in the office building, and the parking spaces are relatively rich. Under the white light, the paint on the Q5 after being waxed is still okay.

↑ On the right side, it was cut in my hometown on September 24. The door of the car was replaced, and the leaf panels were also replaced. I feel that the repair is okay. I wrote a post at that time: www.xcar.com.cn/bbs/viewthread.php? tid=99468901

↑ One more…

↑ The car from March 2015 is currently less than 110,000 kilometers. It’s normal for me to run out of oil. I don’t drive it much at ordinary times, so I always use the manual old B6 to travel.

↑ The focus is on the right side. The repair is okay, but it can’t be seen. I hope there will be no color difference in the future.

↑ There is still a right side, and the effect of 4S painting is okay.

↑ Looking closer to the right, there is no color difference at present.

↑ Feel again, the entire lacquer on the right side is okay.

↑ Looking at the right from behind, it’s okay.

↑ Then go out of Rongke basement and go to the parking place where Laomai B6 is parked. It was sunny in Beijing today. Under natural light, I took a few more pictures, and I felt that the white color was still natural.

↑ I didn’t spray tire wax in Rongke basement because I was worried about contaminating people’s ground. In this place, it was okay to spray tire wax because it was outdoor ground.

↑ Looking at the painted right side under natural light, it’s okay.

↑ The left side of this side is the original car paint. It is no different from the new one by visual inspection. I hope it will be consistent.

↑ After waxing, take the photo behind the Rongke basement.

↑ The next time we will wax it, it should be after March 2024, and we are going to drive it back to our hometown on February 5 and 6, 2024. Today is the fourth day of 49, and it is very cold in the north. The Spring Festival is February 10th, it should be June 9th, and it should not be any colder. The coldest time of the year should be over by the Spring Festival.
