Swissvax Detailing

____________________________________________________________________

A unique car care system

____________________________________________________________________________

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. The system consists of 2 components: A cleaning wax oil and a wax. Swissvax is very easy to apply and will not leave any white residue or build up along seams or in crevices.

An ordinary "polish" simply polishes a paint surface shiny while the lower layers of paint get dryand "starve". Swissvax restores valuable oils of the original paint finish. These essential oils, such as cinnamon, avocado and vanilla, used as carriers for the wax, give these products their wonderful aromas and create a swirl-free gloss. In fact it is this exclusive formula which creates a glow that goes beyond normal perceptions of "shiny".

Where it all began

The old chemist shop was the laboratory as well as the production site for the first jars of "Antiwachs" - a formula developed for precious antiques and laquers. The concours carnauba waxes for automobiles were originally only produced for the private use of Hans Anwander, grandfather and founder of the company.

Wax Manufacturers since 1930


The Anwander's family passion for colours, lacquers and waxes stretches over three generations. The original formulas have been refined and modified over the years. The Swiss factory today is dedicated to continously improve the product range and develop new formuations in response to customer needs, environmental concerns and technological changes.

Hand made in Switzerland

Each Swissvax container is still blended and poured by hand. The rare, natural ingedients used in Swissvax do not allow an industrial production. There are no compromises when it comes to our pursuit of the ultimate wax and car care system. We invite you to try Swissvax on your vehicle and see why our products are famous amongst car enthusiasts all over Europe.

At Gia's Detailing of Long Island we are an exclusive, trained Long Island factory representitive that can professionally apply this product to your vehicle!

 

Swiss Vax Products


At Gia's Detail, they use a variety of waxes, polishes, cleansers and other treatments to achieve superior results.

100% natural


The waxes that the team at Gia's uses have the highest Carnauba content of any wax on the market. And are all 100% natural products without the use of harsh chemicals or abrasives. In effect, it coats a car's paintwork in a smooth and glossy, yet tough and protective, water-repellent film, and even brings a shine to white and silver. A layer of 'Crystal Rock Wax' can last up to 6-12 months on your car and can be "topped up" with additional layers for even more protection. Although time consuming to apply (just ask the staff at Gia's!), it's easy to live with. Just use luke warm water a special sponge, micro fiber drying towel and pH neutral shampoo (wax friendly) in between treatments.

100% protection

Environmentally friendly water-based paint now used on all new vehicles is softer and more vulnerable than older finishes, so providing protection for your car is more vital. High content Carnauba waxes bonds to paintwork, forming a hard film (Carnauba is actually harder than concrete in its natural state) that diffuses UV and infrared radiation, protects it against airborne contaminants and can even help prevent stone chips.

100% waterproof


When exposed to water, Carnauba swells and closes its pores. This leads to the beading and sheeting of water this is characteristic of a car that has been treated with a high content Carnauba wax. The more layers applied the more waterproof it is.
