What is Swissvax?
Swissvax detailing products are made in Switzerland, and have a reputation for quality and precision. Swissvax are true car enthusiasts and collectors for over three generations. Unlike ordinary polishes Swissvax waxes do not contain any abrasives. Swissvax waxes are available for every type of car paint finish. They are equally effective on old laquers as on modern water-based paints.

We all know that the environment is full of chemicals which are harmful to paintwork, from salt on the road in winter to corrosive and oxidising compounds deposited in the rain. Another culprit is the automated car wash, certain brushes of which, whilst making your car superficially clean, leave behind tiny swirl marks and scratches. We correct the paint surface with all the necessary steps to bring it back to its best possible condition – only then do we apply Swissvax carnauba wax which extends the life of your paintwork by protecting it from UV radiation, road salt, industrial fall out, etching, acid rain and just about anything else harmful.

Full treatment of your car can take from as little as one day to up to three days depending on its condition. In addition to the paintwork correction and protection, a full Swissvax detail includes a full interior valet. Caring for your car after treatment is easy and you will find that it soon returns to showroom shine on washing.

By protecting your paintwork and the cosmetic appearance of your car, you are protecting your investment. As Iain has completed the authorised Swissvax training he is able to use the products correctly and achieve the best possible results for you.
