Protective films, known as Paint Protection Films (PPF), are becoming increasingly popular for vehicles and offer several advantages depending on usage and owner preferences. Especially in the front area of the vehicle, protective films significantly reduce paint damage caused by stones or other impacts while driving. Self-healing films have now also been developed, similar to self-healing paint, which can self-correct small scratches through heat. These films are available in transparent, glossy, colored, or matte versions.
One downside of the films: the level of gloss and thus the way the vehicle reflects light and expresses its form can change, even though many films have their own inherent shine.
PPF protective films also require care and maintenance to retain their properties and to prevent them from becoming brittle, cracked, and ultimately unusable. Lifespans of up to seven years, as promised by some manufacturers, can only be achieved if proper care of the films is ensured.
One important factor is the sun. UV rays significantly affect both paint and films. Contaminants and scratches also impact PPF films on vehicles.
SWISSVAX products are ideal for maintaining and caring for PPF protective films. Due to the low content of aggressive chemical substances, SWISSVAX products do not harm PPF wraps.
With the SWISSVAX PPF Wax, the Swiss manufacturer has developed a wax perfectly tailored to the needs of protective films. With the PPF Wax and the PPF Collection, SWISSVAX offers the perfect care for partially wrapped and fully polished vehicles. The SWISSVAX Opaque Series was specially developed for matte-painted and matte-wrapped vehicles.
The high-quality SWISSVAX waxes provide strong gloss, hydrophobicity, and "nourish" the film to maintain its elasticity. The wax layer also acts like a type of sunscreen against harmful UV rays and additionally protects the PPF protective film. A true innovation: with SWISSVAX Keramiq9, films can even be protected with a water-based ceramic coating – with or without SWISSVAX wax. The water-repellent effect is further enhanced and lasts up to 12 months on the vehicle.
With SWISSVAX Cleaner Fluids, films and paint can be polished to restore high gloss and remove scratches. The self-healing properties of the films are not affected by polishing with SWISSVAX, waxing, or applying SWISSVAX Keramiq9, which is another advantage for the car owner.
