Matte Paint Care – Perfect Protection for an Exclusive Finish
Matte paint gives vehicles a subtle elegance and a distinctive satin look. However, this aesthetic is delicate and requires specially formulated care. Conventional products can damage the paint by creating shine or containing abrasive ingredients. Fingerprints, water spots, and light scratches are particularly noticeable on matte surfaces and cannot be polished away as easily as on glossy paint. Using the right care products is essential to preserve the original matte finish.
The Challenge – Preserving Matte Paint in Its Original Form
Matte paints and matte films are sensitive to standard care methods and products. Conventional polishes and waxes designed to enhance gloss can ruin the matte effect. Abrasive ingredients in cleaners or sponges often leave unwanted shine or micro-scratches that damage the surface.
The Solution – Swissvax Opaque Series for Matte Paint and Films
The Swissvax Opaque Series offers a complete care line specifically designed for matte paints and wraps. These products gently clean, effectively protect, and preserve the matte look. From pre-cleaning to washing and sealing, the Opaque Series provides everything needed to maintain the unique look of matte finishes without causing shine or damage.
Matte Paint Care Guide
1. Washing – Thorough Cleaning Without Shine
A gentle wash preserves the matte look and removes dirt without compromising the surface. Car Bath Opaque cleans the paint without gloss enhancers. The Waschpudel Fine and Micro-Dry Cloth ensure gentle cleaning and streak-free drying.
2. Paint Preparation – The Crucial First Step
Pre-cleaning thoroughly removes dirt, oils, and contaminants that could interfere with the next steps. Pre-Cleaner Opaque dissolves stubborn dirt, while the Micro-Absorb Cloth is ideal for gentle cleaning.
3. Sealing – Long-Term Protection for Matte Paint
After cleaning, sealing is essential to protect matte paint or wraps. Opaque Wax maintains the matte beauty while offering protection against environmental influences. The Micro-Fluffy Cloth and Sponge Applicator ensure even and gentle application.
