Shine instead of dullness – How to free your car from road salt & winter residues
Winter leaves its marks: dirty roads, aggressive road salt and stubborn deposits take their toll on your car. The paint looks dull, the rims appear matt, and even the once flawless shine seems gone. But don’t worry – with the right care, your vehicle will soon shine again in full brilliance!
Why is thorough cleaning after winter so important?
Road salt is your car’s enemy. It clings stubbornly to paint, rims and underbody – and can lead to corrosion over time. But with the right cleaning technique and high-quality care products, you can prevent damage and maintain your car’s value.
Step by step: How to clean your car properly
1. Pre-wash – Remove the first layer of dirt!
Before starting the actual car wash, a thorough pre-wash is essential. A pressure washer and a pH-neutral pre-cleaner from Swissvax effectively remove coarse dirt and salt residues.
2. Hand wash – Gentle but thorough
Now it’s time for manual washing. Use a high-quality car shampoo such as Swissvax Car Bath, which cleans the paint without stripping its protective layer. A soft sponge ensures scratches don’t stand a chance.
3. Wheel cleaning – The grand finale for shiny rims
Rims are often heavily covered with brake dust and road salt. A special Swissvax wheel cleaner removes dirt without attacking the surface.
4. Polishing & waxing – The protective shield for your paint
After cleaning, it’s time for the finishing touch: a high-quality polish makes the paint shine, while a Swissvax wax sealant provides long-lasting protection. The result? A mirror-smooth, deep-gloss finish.
Invest in shine and value retention
Regular, thorough car care pays off – not only visually but also financially. With the right products and a little time, you can restore your vehicle’s brilliance after winter. Treat your car to the care it deserves!
