Described herein are compositions and methods for use in automotive care. The present disclosure includes compositions directed to, for example, a wheel cleaner.

A car washing system comprises a filtering unit, a pure water pipeline, a waste water pipeline, a washing pipeline, an optional first branch line, and a second branch line. The filtering unit comprises an RO filter membrane, a filtering pipeline and a booster pump. One end of the filtering pipeline is connected to the inlet of the RO filter membrane. The booster pump is set in the filtering pipeline. The pure water pipeline is connected between a pure water outlet of the RO filter membrane and one end of the washing pipeline. The joint of the pure water pipeline and the washing pipeline is provided with a high-pressure pump. One end of the waste water pipeline is connected with waste water outlet of the RO filtering membrane, and the other end is a discharge end. The second branch line is connected between the waste water pipeline and the washing pipeline.

A nonflammable aerosol composition for washing various types of car/vehicle is of low toxicity, which has little environmental impact in terms of depletion of the ozone layer and so forth, which has a washability as good as or better than conventional products such as has been unattained by aqueous products or high-flash-point products, which permits achievement of appropriate drying characteristics, and which, while preventing erosion of rubbers and resins, causes dirt components to be moistened and washed off and away therefrom by the detergent composition, and which permits accommodation of mechanization by virtue of its being capable of being sprayed thereonto from a roughly constant distance therefrom, said aerosol composition for washing is made to contain (Z)-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene and gas propellant which is N.sub.2, compressed air, CO.sub.2, argon, or a mixture of two or more thereof.

The present invention is a chain cleaning device with a track that guides a chain through a cleaning chamber. The cleaning chamber forms air flow pathways along the sides of the chain. Discharge ports in the chamber ceiling direct a high velocity working air flow spanning the width of the chamber at the upper surfaces of the chain to generate high velocity swirling air flows that progress through the interior openings of the chain and through the pathways along the outer sides of the chain. The compact nature of the cleaning chamber and the close proximity of its walls to the chain maintain the high velocity working and swirling air flows against the various differently oriented surfaces of the chain to remove dirt, grease, grit and grime from the multi-surface chain, including the nooks and crannies where chain plates, pins and rollers come together.

A portable blower assembly includes a cylinder that has an exhaust port integrated into the cylinder. A handle extends around the cylinder and the handle can be gripped by a user for directing the exhaust port toward a vehicle. A blower is rotatably integrated into the cylinder to urge air outwardly through the exhaust port thereby facilitating the air to be directed onto the vehicle for drying the vehicle when the blower is turned on. A heater is integrated into the cylinder such that the heater is in thermal communication with an interior of the cylinder. The heater is positioned between the blower and the exhaust port to heat the air is blown by the blower for enhancing drying the vehicle.

A liquid cleaning and watering system for living plants rests on a surface covered by a non-porous material. A plate layer covering the non-porous layer has two or more layers, each layer having runners arranged in a grid. The grid of each successive layer is offset at an angle with respect to the grid of a previous layer. An upper layer covers the plate layer and has a plurality of holes for the passage of liquids into the liquid cleaning system. As the living plants are watered or cleaned, excess liquids containing water and oils that were excreted by the living plants enter the liquid cleaning system through the holes, the liquid traverses the grid layers, flowing towards a drain. Contaminants within the liquid collect within the grid of the layers of the plate layer for later disposal.

A method for applying a wax formulation to a vehicle. A water hose is connected at one end to a water source and at the other end it is connected to a siphon-sprayer having a wax formulation in its container. The wax formulation includes water and wax emulsions. The water is turned on and flows from the water source through the water hose and then through the siphon-sprayer. The wax formulation is siphoned up from the siphon-sprayer to form a wax formulation and water mixture that is then sprayed onto the vehicle. After application of the wax formulation and water mixture, no further step of buffing or wiping is required. In a preferred embodiment, the wax emulsion is a cationically charged wax emulsion.

Devices, methods and systems are provided for preserving the surface of vehicles. The system includes a mobile housing such as a pull behind trailer that contains a purified water storage tank, a clothes washer and drier, a water heater, a multimedia filtration system, a Reverse Osmosis (RO) System, a discharge pump, and a booster pressure pump. Smaller satellite tank trailers may be serviced by larger system described herein to allow simultaneous washings. A high concentration SiO2 ceramic coating is applied with SiO2 concentration ranging between 49.9% and 64.1%.

The present disclosure relates to an automobile including a steam washer mounted thereon capable of removing water remaining in the steam washer within a short period of time through the use of an air compressing tank and a compressed air feeding pump for feeding compressed air stored in the air compressing tank to a water chamber of a steam generator and a water tank.
