If I wax my car will it give it a little darker color? I cant remember if it does or not. Or is there anything I can use to get my cars color a little darker also has to have the shine. Its dark gray by the way

Even if it doesn't you should wax it once a month anyway to protect the paint.

Chances are it will appear darker once it has been waxed because the wax will fill in small scratches and swirl marks and make them less noticeable. Swirl marks will reflect light and can make paint appear to be a lighter shade.

Yeah if i lived in the south or west i would wax it once a month, but this cold weather who wants to wax lol.

I know, I haven't waxed my car in 3 months. I feel ashamed.

The wax won't change the tint or hue of the color you already have. The wax will, however, make the paint look deeper.

+1 and Polish for a deeper effect.

Correct. The polish will remove scratches and spiderwebbing that make the paint look dull. In combination with the wax you would apply after the polishing step, you should have a very clear finish with deep reflection, especially on a dark colored car like yours.
