Car Polish / Wax Does this affect fuel economy?
Hi all, I've been making my way through this forum soaking up as many tips / experience as one can but I can't see any mention of car wax / polish re fuel economy, does or would a well waxed car (once a year at least) over one that is not at all have any affect on fuel economy?

So yes, clean is better. However if I cover my car in clay and put dimples in it I'll do even better.
