After commuting years.
City cars are short-journey cars. Moisture rarely dries out, and upholstery and carpet hold on to what has been carried in over the years.

Professional car care for Zurich at the AVP workshop in nearby Glattbrugg: interior care, polishing, coatings and assisted handover by arrangement.
Zurich
Professional car care for Zurich, close to the city.
AVP's workshop in Glattbrugg is positioned for Zurich clients who need more than a quick city-centre wash. Paint inspection, controlled correction and coating work benefit from dedicated space, lighting and curing conditions.
For regular care or business vehicles, we can also discuss assisted handover and recurring service arrangements.
Services around Zurich
Care planned around condition and journey.
Zurich clients use AVP for complete interior and exterior care, measured polishing and protection systems chosen for urban use, parking and mileage.
After the car park.
Scuffs on door edges and bumpers are the commonest damage in the city. We check the depth before deciding.
View scratch removalAgainst brake dust.
Dense traffic means frequent braking. On wheels that shows as a stubborn, hot-bonded deposit.
View wheel cleaningAgainst wash marks.
Weekly trips through the wash leave a fine network of scratches after a few years. That can be taken back under control.
View gloss polishingHow we work
How your car gets to us from Zurich.
Three routes, depending on the job and how much time you have. We settle which one fits beforehand by phone.
Twenty minutes
Via the A1 or through Oerlikon you reach us in Glattbrugg from most city districts in around twenty minutes.
Collection and delivery
For multi-stage work we collect the vehicle in the city and return it cared for. Sensible when several days are needed anyway.
CarSpa on site
For single jobs we come to you with the CarSpa, including to your workplace. For polishing and coating the workshop remains the right place.
The right moment
When each appointment pays off.
In the city every kind of work has a sensible window. Hitting it means fewer appointments and lower cost over the years.
After the salt, before the pollen
Spring is the key appointment for a city car. Salt residue belongs off the underbody and out of the wheel arches before it works on for a whole summer. Polishing and protection follow, while the trees are still bare.
Protection against sun and sap
Parking on the street means the highest load in summer: bird droppings, sap and UV on unprotected surfaces. An existing coating buys time here, because nothing etches straight into the clear coat.
The interior before the wet season
From autumn moisture gets into the car and does not leave again until spring. Interior cleaning and drying therefore make sense in October, not in January once the smell has set in.
Region
Also for the surrounding communities.
The same routes apply to the communities around the city. Where exactly you are mainly changes whether collection and delivery is worthwhile.
From the Limmat valley, Dietikon is reachable in roughly the same time as the city centre. North of the city Wallisellen, Dübendorf and Regensdorf are practically on our doorstep, as are Kloten and Opfikon.
For vehicles from the left lake shore and the Oberland we usually plan the appointment so that one journey is enough. Which level of care suits your vehicle is set out in the care packages, Smaragd to Diamant.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions from Zurich.
Answers on reaching Glattbrugg, assisted service and choosing a useful protection level.
Is collection and return available within Zurich?
It can be arranged for suitable appointments depending on location, schedule and scope. We confirm the logistics and cost before the booking is final.
Which care package suits my vehicle?
If you are unsure, a short consultation is the right place to start. We assess the vehicle's use, condition, interior and paintwork, then recommend a package or combination that genuinely fits. You decide on the next step afterwards. The four levels are compared under the care packages.
Do I need to know exactly which service I need?
No. Tell us about the vehicle, its condition and your goal. We will advise whether cleaning, polishing, paint protection, ceramic coating or a service workflow makes sense.
How binding are prices marked "from CHF"?
These prices provide guidance. The exact scope depends on vehicle size, condition, materials, soiling and the desired result. We agree the work clearly before starting.
Can scratches, stains or odours be removed completely?
That depends on their depth, material, cause and condition. Many marks can be removed or improved substantially. We explain what is realistic and material-safe before work begins. How deep a scratch sits decides the route, see scratch removal.
Technical car care for Zurich
Treat the conditions affecting vehicles from Zurich.
Vehicles from Zurich are particularly exposed to urban fine dust, tight parking, construction particles and intensive use. These influences are considered separately during the condition assessment so cleaning, paint correction and protection match the actual surface condition.
Mineral residue and bonded particles are removed separately before polishing. Only then are swirls, micro-scratches and dull areas corrected with suitably abrasive polishes, avoiding unnecessary clear-coat removal.
Suitable protection makes cleaning easier and reduces renewed contamination. Product choice and layer structure reflect humidity, UV exposure, parking conditions and the planned maintenance routine.
Suitable glass can receive hydrophobic protection. Cabin dust and contamination are reduced by vacuuming, material-appropriate deep cleaning and controlled drying; displays, piano black and soft-touch plastics require particularly clean tools and matched products.
