Why rims and tyres need their own care
Rims are the most heavily used parts of your vehicle: brake dust, road salt, tar and dirt attack the surface on every drive. Without regular cleaning and sealing, these deposits eat into the surface – especially on aluminium and powder-coated rims.
Swissvax offers coordinated products for every type of rim: Wheel Spray Forte as an intensive cleaner, Autobahn PTFE wheel wax for long-lasting protection against re-soiling, and Pneu tyre shine for the perfect finish. For classics with whitewall tyres: Pneu White restores the pure-white appearance.
Wheel cleaning, sealing and tyre care
Tyre and rim care step by step
Step 1 – Clean the rims: spray Wheel Spray Forte onto the rims and spread with the Wheel Brush. For the rim barrel use the Speed Master Combo or Wheel Woolies – both sets reach the most difficult spots.
Step 2 – Rinse off and dry: as soon as the wheel cleaner turns violet, rinse off with clean water and wipe off with the Micro-Wash yellow. Then dry with the Ultra-Dry drying towel.
Step 3 – Seal the rims: to prevent rapid re-soiling – especially in winter – apply a thin layer of Autobahn PTFE wheel wax and buff off with the Micro-Polish blue. The PTFE formulation ensures that brake dust and dirt simply rinse off.
Step 4 – Tyre shine: spray on Pneu or apply more precisely with the Pneu Brush. The tyre shine nourishes the rubber and makes the visual difference.
Whitewall tyres: first clean with Pneu White and Pneu White Pads, then apply Pneu tyre shine – also suitable for whitewall tyres.
