Matt Paint Care – Perfect Protection for an Exclusive Finish
Matt paint gives vehicles a subtle elegance and a unique satin-matt look. However, this aesthetic is delicate and requires specially tailored care. Conventional products can damage the paint by adding unwanted gloss or through abrasive ingredients. Fingerprints, water spots, and light scratches are particularly noticeable on matt surfaces and cannot simply be polished out like on glossy finishes. The right care with appropriate products is essential to maintain the original appearance of matt paint.
The Challenge – Preserving Matt Paint in Its Original Form
Matt paints and matt wraps are sensitive to standard care methods and products. Conventional polishes and waxes that aim for gloss can destroy the matt effect. Abrasive ingredients in cleaners or sponges often leave unwanted gloss or micro-scratches that damage the surface.
The Solution – Swissvax Opaque Series for Matt Paint and Matt Wraps
The Swissvax Opaque series offers a complete care line specially designed for matt paints and wraps. These products gently clean, effectively protect, and preserve the matt look. From pre-cleaning to car washing to sealing, the Opaque series provides everything to maintain the unique look of matt finishes without adding gloss or causing damage.
Care Guide for Matt Paint
1. Car Wash – Thorough Cleaning Without Adding Gloss
A gentle car wash preserves the matt look and removes dirt thoroughly without harming the surface. The Car Bath Opaque cleans the paint without adding gloss enhancers. The Waschpudel Fine and the Micro-Dry Cloth ensure gentle cleaning and streak-free drying.
2. Paint Preparation – The Crucial First Step
Pre-cleaning removes dirt, oils, and contaminants that could affect subsequent steps. The Pre-Cleaner Opaque dissolves stubborn dirt, while the Micro-Absorb Cloth is ideal for gentle cleaning.
3. Sealing – Long-Lasting Protection for Matt Paint
After cleaning, sealing is essential to protect the matt paint or wrap. The Opaque Wax preserves the matt beauty while providing protection against environmental influences. The Micro-Fluffy Cloth and the Sponge Applicator assist in even and gentle application.
