Swiss Vax

[Trier Germany]

Any members try/used this wax before?

like/dislike?

Is it worth the $$$$$.


What would you recommend for space gray?

I love it. I have concorso and I would say it's the best you can get for the money. I have a dark silver metallic on my car (honda s2000) and concorso looks AMAZING on it, and it really makes the metallic pop. I would go with concorso.

Just did it last week. I used Blau Weiss and so far I like it. Durability is still to be determined but I just washed this morning and damn it looks good!

I used Onyx on mine last week and it looks incredible. But I will be trying the Blau Weiss and the cleaner treatment as recommended by 808MGuy and other detailers in this forum

Yes, be sure to use the cleaner fluid prior to waxing. It makes a big difference.

FWIW, I had one coat of Concorso on my Chicane Silver (much like space grey--but more blue metallic flake, and a little darker) last 2 months before I just decided to add another layer.

you shouldn't add another layer of wax after the car has been on the same coat of wax for a while... contaminants actually get stuck to the wax layer, and then when you wax the paint without first stripping the old coat, you are just sealing in the contamination.

so next time you would want to strip the old coat by either washing with a strong wash such as CG citrus wash n clear or using Cleaner Fluid before waxing

OP, Swissvax makes some of the best waxes available on the market. my favorite two waxes are Mystery, and Rubbish Boy's Original Edition. both verydifferent products, but they are both VERY good. Rubbish Boy's Original Edition is a major underdog that doesn't get the recognition it deserves.

If the car is showing no signs of surface contamination, and I washed it properly, why would I not want to add another layer for durabilities sake?

I didn't just decide one night I was going to add another layer of wax and not properly prep the car
