What
makes Jax Wax Car Care Products better than
other products available at stores?
All Jax Wax Car
Care products have been designed and developed for use by Professional
Detailers whose livelihood depend on products that Work the First
Time, and must be Fast and Easy to use.
Consequently they
are designed to be of higher strength and potency, more versatile
in their applications, and lower cost per application and per unit
of measure.
For example, products like Shine All are designed to be mixed with water
to create anywhere from a very high shine, to a satin, or a matte finish
depending on your application and preferences. If
you try to change to appearance of most retail products, you might as
well throw them in the trash.
This versatility
coupled with low unit costs make our products superior to many other
Car Care products offered in traditional Retail Markets.

Do you manufacture all of your own products?
Our products
are manufactured at our parent company’s plant in Columbus,
Ohio. We do not manufacture accessories such as applicators, spray
bottles, and the like. We only resell products that we sell to the
Professional Detail trade and we have found to be of excellent quality.

Why
are you selling Jax Wax Car Care products on a web site?
Throughout the
course of selling products to the Professional Detailing Trade, demand
from individuals has gotten so great that we needed to create a formal
distribution pipeline to satisfy demand.
We regularly get
calls from people all over the United States wanting our products
shipped to them, which has grown purely from word of mouth. The Internet
allows us to satisfy that demand in a seamless manner, which is also
the most convenient way for customers with out regard to their location
or time zone.

Why
does water bead up better on a well waxed car?
Water is a polar
molecule, composed of two hydrogen atoms bonded to a single oxygen
atom. Water molecules like to stick to one another, like small magnets.
This is called cohesion.
Water molecules
also can be attracted to other substances, such as metal or dirt,
especially if they have some static charge on them. This is called
adhesion.
Lastly, some substances are not at all attracted to water, and even
repel it. These include oils, fats and waxes; all of which are called
non-polar substances.
When water falls
on an unwaxed car, the forces of adhesion are almost as strong as
the forces of cohesion, and the water spreads out. Furthermore, if
the painted surface is not perfectly smooth, water can be channeled
for some distance along tiny ridges and valleys. This is particularly
true if there is dirt on the car. The dirt itself may be charged,
and attract water even more. These tiny flaws may not be readily visible
without a magnifying glass, but you can sense a rough surface when
you run your hand over it. On such a rough surface, drops of water
appear flat and wide and often uneven.
Car wax, when
applied properly to a clean car, fills in the larger scratches and
layers the whole car. The chemical structure of the wax prevents water
from penetrating to the surface of the car. Because the wax itself
is hydrophobic (literally "fears water"), the forces of adhesion are
much less than the forces of cohesion. So, water is more likely to
stick to itself, and water beads up higher and rounder than on an
unwaxed car.
