sun on cars

[Only4U]

how bad does sunlight affect the way the paint shines/looks? i was just wondering, my car sits in the sun all day long, only because it stays away from other likely candidates for putting dents in my car (other cars). i'm wondering if the risk of getting the car dinged is worth getting it out of the sun? thx.

I would imagine a good coat of wax (Zaino) should protect it pretty well.

don't know about the paint, but if you have t-tops, the sun will affect the rubber seals and other stuff like that. Also, if you windows aren't tinted that dark, you might get some interior fading after time has passed. Not to mention a cracked dash

yeah i would think a good coat of wax every once in a while would help alot. plus your car is white isn't it? i would think that color would show signs of sun damage less. might want to buy a sunshade so the dash doens't fade, i think that's a much bigger concern than the paint
