Abstract
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In the last ten (10) years with the introduction of automatic car
washing equipment, it has enabled people to keep their motor
vehicles' clean with little effort.
Long gone are the days of washing a motor vehicle by hand, shimmy
drying the motor vehicle, applying an automotive wax to the car and
then cleaning the windows.
The old method of washing a car resulted in no wax products being
applied to the windows.
When a motor vehicle goes through an automatic car wash, the car
body including windows are soaked with softening containments and
detergents in the first run, followed by another run of water washing
the car body surface and windows.
A subsequent run then occurs when detergent is scattered over the
body of the car including the windows. Then a subsequent run occurs
by washing the motor vehicle body and windows with water to
remove and liberate the detergent, dirt and grime.
Then a subsequent runs occurs, which performs a splattered wax
treatment to the car body and windows of the motor vehicle. Then a
subsequent run occurs, which applies water to remove some of the
splatter wax, which has been applied to the motor vehicle body and
windows.
Then a final run occurs when the car is dried by air, removing excess
water, however leaving residue of the splatter wax on the motor
vehicle body and windows.
The automotive splatter wax applied to the car body and windows,
will add an extra layer of protection to maintain the paint protection
and to maintain the motor vehicle shine from dirty rain water. Motor
vehicle liquid splatter waxes as applied in car washing will protect
the car for about one (1) week, after the wash.
However, a side effect is the splatter wax is applied to the motor
vehicle windscreen.
The actual splatter wax which is applied to the motor vehicle will
result in water beading on the motor vehicle windscreen, because
car wax is hydrophobic, meaning that it does its best to avoid
absorbing water.
However, automatic motor washing will result in a wax build up on
the motor vehicle's windshield. Too much automotive splatter wax
on the motor vehicles' windshield will affect the driver's vision and
also damage the wipers, when they come into contact with the
automotive splatter wax application.
If the automotive liquid splatter car wax application is not removed,
the use of wipers will cause the wax on the windscreen to spread
wider and build up on certain sections of the motor vehicle's
windscreen. This will affect the driver's vision by the creation of
smudges and streaks.
If a person uses an ammonia based windscreen cleaning product, it
could possibly damage the window tint on modern day motor
vehicles.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention resides in the recognition that motor vehicle
splatter waxing will result in a build-up of wax on the motor vehicle's
windscreen and thereby affecting the driver's vision and also
damaging the motor vehicle's wipers.
The present invention, which consists of a 100 millilitres (ml) of
Isopropyl alcohol, together with 200 ml's of vinegar, 200 ml's of pure
water and 10 ml's of a dishwashing detergent (the product), will
remove the motor vehicle splatter liquid wax from the motor
vehicle's windscreen.
Isopropyl alcohol dissolves a wide range of non-polar compounds. It
also evaporates quickly, leaving zero oil traces. Isopropyl alcohol is a
degreaser and has cleaning properties. Isopropyl alcohol will
breakdown the motor vehicle wash splatter wax, which has been left
on the motor vehicle's windscreen and allow it to be removed.
The vinegar provides an acidic composition, which acts quickly to
break down the film such as dirt and grime that frequently
accumulates on motor vehicle windscreens.
Tap water, which contains dissolved solids and if used in this
composition, would result in streaks and smudges being left on the
motor vehicle windscreen. Therefore an element of this invention
uses pure water to minimize smudges and streaks on the motor
vehicles' windscreen.
The use of Isopropyl alcohol, vinegar and distilled water acting
together agitates and softens the wax, dirt and grime on the motor
vehicle's windscreen and effectively removes the automotive
splatter wax, dirt and grime from the motor vehicle's windscreen.
The liquid automotive wash wax remover ("the product") is sprayed
onto the motor vehicle's windscreen by the use of a small spray
bottle, which contains 500 ml's of the product.
The product would be applied using a prior art, "Melamine" which
provides a cleaning efficacy using a layer of hardened thermo setting
melamine foam (a formaldehyde- melamine- sodium - bisulphite
copolymer, manufactured by BASF under the name "Basotect" for its
superior scrubbing properties).
The use of melamine foam is used to soak up the automotive car
wash wax removed when the product is applied in a circular motion.
The use of the liquid car wash wax remover and the melamine foam
causes the melamine to act like a super fine sandpaper. The abrasive
foam and the liquid automotive remover product will loosen up the
wax particulars, dirt and grime on the motor vehicle windscreen and
open the micro structure of the foam as it removes the wax, dirt and
grime into the foam and traps the wax, dirt and grime in the foam.
Melamine foam is safe for the use on motor vehicle windscreens.
Melamine foam has been recognised as having useful cleaning
properties when wetted with water and rubbed against certain
surfaces to be cleaned.
The present invention provides for a cleaning wipe for use in cleaning
automotive windscreens after proceeding through a car wash where
a splatter wax is applied to the automotive body and windscreen and
the melamine foam, together with Isopropyl alcohol, vinegar and
pure water will remove the splatter wax from the automotive
windscreen.
The National Institutes of Health lists melamine foam as non-toxic.
The melamine foam will only be suitable for a few applications of the
liquid car wash wax remover as it tends to break down and
disintegrate with repeated uses.
A roll of paper towels is then used as an absorbent to soak up the
excess liquid automotive wash wax removed off the motor vehicles
windscreen to allow a motor vehicle windscreen to be free of waxes,
dirt and grime, and will allow the driver to have clear vision of the
road and surrounding areas.
The windscreen rubber wipers should also be cleaned with the
melamine foam with the liquid car wash wax remover trapped inside
it in order to allow the wipers to be wiped clean of wax, dirt and
grime and allow clear vision when precipitation falls onto the motor
vehicle windscreen.
A disposable product consisting of a sachet of 100 ml of the product,
Isopropyl alcohol, vinegar and pure water, together with a narrow
piece of melamine, will be available from a product dispenser at the
car wash bays.
The sachet will be able to be opened and applied to the motor
vehicles' windscreen and then the melamine foam will be used to
apply the product to the windscreen in a circular motion, with the
product loosening up the motor vehicle splatter wax, breaking down
the dirt and grime, and the melamine foam will soak up the wax, dirt
and grime, and then using the wiper blades to clear any excess
product and also cleaning the wiper blades from any wax, dirt or
grime.
