Default Satin Paint

HD says not to put wax on satin paint for obvious reasons. But I like the added protection wax offers paint.

Curious if anyone has a satin paint that they help protect better with some product. Anyone?

HD just says just keep it clean, which may be all there is.

Thanks

I clean my denim black paint with lemon pledge. Wax wont hurt the finish as it is clear coated. It ads a little shine to the black and deepens the color a bit.

Yes many suggest not using wax. Depends on if it is clear coated or not. HD denim paints or cleared with an egg shell flat clear. It's not going to harm your paint as long as it contains no abrasives.
