MaxWax provides excellent protection to metal substrates exposed to harsh outdoor conditions. Leaves a firm, waxy film that is easily removed by alkaline cleaners or solvents for quicker results.
MaxWax is a tough, synthetic wax-based, resilient corrosion inhibitor barrier coating that provides long-term protection for metal surfaces. It forms a smooth, even coating for maximum protection even in the harshest environments and underwater.
MaxWax dries faster than other wax-based corrosion inhibitors, and it will not harden, crack or lose resiliency even in sub-zero temperatures It can withstand temperatures exceeding 200°C / 392°F. Its ultra-thin viscosity allows penetration between and around close fitting components to prevent moisture, gasses or chemicals from causing rust or corrosion.
MaxWax is acid resistant. VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) Technology MaxWax emits a time release Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) for added benefit when applied in confined areas. The VCI forms an invisible coating that protects items not covered by the wax, such as tools in a toolbox, engines in an engine compartment, and electrical switches and components in an electrical box or cabinet.

FIRST AID
General Advice: May cause irritation to skin and eyes; avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
Wash thoroughly after handling.
Use with adequate ventilation.
Avoid breathing mist or vapor; inhalation overexposure may cause irritation, dizziness and drowsiness.
Extremely flammable aerosol; keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, hot surfaces and open flame.
Inhalation: Remove from exposure area to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact: Wipe excess from skin; remove contaminated clothing. Wash from skin with mild soap and water.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with plenty of water for 15 minutes while holding eyelids open. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
Ingestion: Give water, DO NOT induce vomiting. No treatment necessary unless large quantities are ingested, then seek medical advice.
