Abstract:
Wax-based composition for protecting and polishing paint, plastic and metal surfaces, or as a mold release, to remain free of clinging dust, comprising a first hydrocarbon wax having a relatively higher HLB value, a second hydrocarbon wax having a relatively lower HLB value, the first and second waxes being combined into a wax blend having an intermediate HLB value based on the proportions of each wax, a solvent for the blend, the solvent having a given HLB value, the HLB value of the wax-solvent mixture being predetermined by the wax blend HLB value and the concentration and HLB value of the solvent, and a small but effective amount of a quaternary compound having an anti-static persistence at the predetermined HLB value to maintain the surfaces protected, polished and free of clinging dust.
