Alright, I'll bite. His paint is over 10 years old now. What is it it's "breathing"? What's the reaction going on that a wax will inhibit? Will keeping the car in a vacuum cause the same problem? Or a plastic bubble full of nitrogen?

And do you feel a car will stand the test of time better with no protective products applied to it as opposed to one that is frequently waxed? For example, me and my neighbor buy the same car and park it outside for 10 years. I wax mine once a week with some turtle wax or whatever from the grocery store. He does nothing. You think in 10 years his finish will be in better shape than mine?
