He said he didn't know you needed to do that to cars and that he sometimes adds that "wax stuff" at the automatic car washes and figured that was good enough. Another nurse, who is a woman, said "yea, I'm not sure my husband has ever waxed our cars either."

Do people really think that shit they spray on at the car wash and then immediately rinse off actually protects anything?
Today's clearcoat paints don't really require the care that those in the past did in order to look good, so most people don't wax their cars at all anymore. The spray on shit at the car wash will help the water bead off a bit but other than that it doesn't do much.
