Painted bumpers: wax?

Should painted bumpers that match the truck paint be waxed? I am guessing they are painted and should be waxed (same as a shell)?

 

Absolutely. Just use the right kind of wax in case there are parts of your bumper that might get stained.

I wax almost everything on my truck...paint, chrome, plastic, rubber trim, glass. Everything except the windshield & the bedliner.

Is that as universally applicable to different mediums as Turtle Wax Ice?

I saw you commenting on Turtle Wax Ice in another thread, how would you compare that product to Turtle Wax Ice?

Thanks

 

Yep. Have at it!

 

Are you sure that was me? I don't think I've used Turtle Wax Ice.

In addition to a bunch of paste waxes, I've tried:

• Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax (good stuff)
• SYSTEM ONE Spray Wax (good stuff, no longer made under that brand name; now is S51)
• Duragloss Aquawax (good stuff)
• Eagle One Spray Wax (pretty good stuff)
• Mother's Reflections Spray Wax (didn't like it because it was hard to remove)
• Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax 2.0 (didn't like it because it stained my trim).

Plus of course CSI Wax, which is what we sell.

I can tell you that the Duragloss, Meguiar's UQW, CSI and S1 all can be applied to everything.
