Swissvax?
Hi, I was just wondering if anybody had used this detailing products and if they are any good. They seem really professional.

They are extremely good. But with that being said 90% of all paint is in the prep. That being said, a $1,000 wax won't do crap on a car that has never been polished?
I use Dodo Juice wax. It's not cheap at $70 a tub (8oz). I run Hard Candy and top it with Rainforest Rub. Hope this helps |

I had my car detailed once with Swissvax Scuderia and the finish was brilliant. Looked hard as glass and so glossy.
This was on carbon black and it basically hid all the metallic flakes and made it look very black instead of metallic blue/black shine. Like I said it was amazing - but if you have a colour that you want the metallic element to pop I dont think this is the wax to use.

If you want the metallic to pop, use Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint sealant.
But as already been said, it al depends on your prep. So start foaming, claying, polishing and glazing your cars... |

My car was recently done professionally and finished with Swissvax. Very pleased with the results. However, there are so many good products out there I don't think you can go wrong and save a few bucks at the same time. As mentioned; prep is key to the final results.
