You should always check the condition of your paintwork prior to waxing, remove any scratches or scuffs by polishing the paint work. If you cannot remove any scratches or scuff marks it may be best to call in a car detailer to perform a paint correction to remove any defects.  Also check the feel of the paint work, if it is rough then it would be best to Clay Bar the car to remove any contamination to ensure the wax bonds to the paint work. After you have corrected any paint defects and clayed the car down to remove contamination it should feel as smooth as glass.

It is always best to wipe the car down with Isopropyl Alcohol to ensure the paint work is free from any residue or contamination that could get between the wax and the paint preventing it to bond.
