How to protect car paint from sun?

I have a white Ford SUV, I live in Tampa FL and it gets up in the triple digits with a very intense sun.
My car is parked in an open driveway with no shade. I always keep wax on it.
How else can I protect it from the sun?

I put my Mustang under a cover. Wax is a great way to protect from the UV rays,. It creates a barrier. As long as you take good care of the finish no matter how long it sits outside it will remain great for years to come.

  • How to protect fuel pump wiring?

Will it prevent any explosion? is heat shrink adequate to protect soldered wires from gaoline inside the tank?
