UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
AssIeNon or ONE-HALF T0 PENNSYLVANIA.
AUTOMOBILE, FURNITURE, AND WOODWORK POLISH.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I,.Essni HARDY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Uniontown, in the county of Fayette and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Automobile, Furniture, and Woodwork Polishes, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide an improved polish, particularly adapted for 1 furniture and woodwork surfaces. 7
Another object of the invention is to provide a polish that is capable of being applied with greater ease than those generally appearing upon the market; one which insures a better and more durable lustre; one which accomplishes every advantage obtainable with the use of other known polishes when using even a less amount, which in effect shows it to be more economical; one which has no detrimental effect whatsoever upon the finest varnishes or other surface finishes; one which will withstand the usual injurious effect of rain and other water; and one which dries fullyafter a short period without leaving a sticky or gummy surface.
With these objects in view, the invention comprises a combination of ingredients, in accordance with a preferable formula hereinafter specified in detail, but which quantities can be varied quite substantially, without destroying all of the advantages which are characteristic of the recipe given below.
In describing the making of the improved polish a quantity of about a gallon will be considered. Six eggs, including both the whites and yolks, are thoroughly beaten together and four (4) ounces of distilled water added thereto. To this is added three (3) ounces of vinegar and two (2) ounces of kerosene, and the combination stirred thoroughly to intimately assimilate the different elements thus far brought together.
Then to the mixture is added two (2) ounces of wood-alcohol, while the mass is still being stirred evenly, and finally three (3) quarts of light engine oil, preferably of Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 24, 1922.
Application filed November 17, 1919. Serial No. 338,736.
a grade equal or similar-to Mobile E, after which the mixture can be bottled and securely corked. The oil referred to as Mobile E is a very light engine oil, having a viscosity of 200 at 104 Fahrenheit, specific gravity .920, a cold test of zero, and a flash test of 365 Fahrenheit.
In applying this improved polish, all surfaces should be thoroughly washed or otherwise cleaned, when the polish can be applied by moistening a cheese-cloth. or other soft material, with the same, and spreading thinly. Then. a dry cheese-cloth, or similar material, should be used to rub the surface absolutely dry.
Unlike most polishes, the one herein described does not require that a part only of an automobile should be finished first, before proceeding to the other parts thereof in turn, as this polish will render the same results whether rubbed immediately after application, or considerably later. Also, it has been found best to apply the mixture quite thinly to the surface to be polished, and as there is a tendency while standing for some of the ingredients to separate because of their wide difference in specific gravity, it is very preferable that the compound be well shaken .before using.
Wliile the improved polish has been described in its preferred formula as consist ing of certain definite ingredients, it is to be understood, that ordinary water will servef though distilled water is most satisfactory. Likewise, the kerosene represents only one of themineral. oils, which might to a certain extent serve as well that form of alcohol, commonly known as wood-alcohol is pre ferred, though other forms might be used in lieu of the preferred; and the most efficient of the hydrocarbon oils has been specified as being a light engine oil, though others could obviously be used with varying degrees of success.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to protect by Letters Patent of the United States is 1. A polish, comprising the combination of six eggs, four ounces of water, three ounces of vinegar, two ounces of kerosene,
7 2 ounces of wood-alcohol, and three quarts of light engine 011.
2. A polish, comprising theeombina tion of eggs, water, vinegar, kerosene, wood-alcoho], and engine oil. A V
3. A polish, COIl'lPllSlngtllQ oombinz tlon V of eggs, Water, an acld, a mineral oil, alcohol,
and alight engine oil substantially Such as and. oil.
would be characterized by a viscosity of 200 at 104 F., specific gravity of .920, a cold test of zero, and a flash test of 365 F.
4:. A polish, comprising the combination of eggs, Water, vinegar kerosene aloohol,
In testiinon whereof Ilmve affixed my signature. V V
