Can I wax the car after the Protection Film had been applied?

[Black Eagle]

I want to wax my car, but since I never had the protection film before,I don't know if it will create a difference on the color when the film get removed.

Please Advice!

Thanks

Well you should ask your film installer. Generally speaking not a problem (I have looked into this quite a bit) however some films should not be waxed and must instead be treated with a spray on plastic polish/wax to avoid scratching and discoloration. As to the portions that are not protected by film you should, of course, keep waxing with a quality wax. When you remove the film (in 2-4 years) you may very well see some difference but a lot will depend on sun exposure.

Thanks!
Yes, I have the Film cleaner.
I wasn't thinking on waking the film, but I was worried that after removing it will look to different

You need to also wax the film. It will help when cleaning off bugs.

Ask your film installer first. Some films cannot be waxed.
