This versatile product is perfect for a wide range of applications, ensuring exceptional results every time.

Key uses include:

  • Keep Dead Bugs Off Your Car Grille: It’s bad enough that your grill and bonnet get splattered with bugs every time you drive down the road, and it’s not easy to clean bugs off your car. Just spray some Aquanol on the grill and bonnet before going for a drive and most of the critters will slide right off. The few bugs left will be easy to wipe off later without damaging your car’s finish.
  • Renew Faded Plastic Furniture: Bring colour and shine back to faded plastic patio furniture. Simply spray Aquanol directly on the surface and wipe with a clean, dry cloth. You’ll be surprised at the results.
  • Remove 'Paint Rub' From Another Car: Picture this: you return to your parked car to find that while you were gone, another vehicle got a bit too close for comfort. Luckily there’s no dent, but now your car has a blotch of “paint rub” from the other car on it. To remove paint-rub stains on your car and restore its original finish, spray the affected area with Aquanol, wait a few seconds, then wipe with a clean cloth.
  • Keep Wooden Tool Handles Splinter Free: No tools can last forever, but you can prolong the life of your wood-handled tools if you keep them from splintering. Just rub a generous amount of Aquanol into the wood. It shields the wood from moisture and other corrosive elements and keeps it smooth and splinter-free for the life of the tool.
  • Prevent Snow Buildup on Windows: Does the weather forecast predict a big winter snowstorm? You can’t stop the snow from falling, but you can prevent it from building up on your house’s windows with a little bit of Aquanol. Just spray Aquanol over the outside of your windows before the snow starts and the snow won’t stick.
  • Keep Wasps from Building Nests: Don’t let wasps ruin your spring and summer fun. Their favourite place to build nests is under eaves, so next spring mist some Aquanol under all the eaves of your house. It will block the wasps from building their nests there.
  • Fix Squeaky Hinges: Nothing can be more irritating than a squeaky hinge on a door. Apply some Aquanol, rotate it back and forth, and the squeak should vanish.
  • Remove Chewing Gum: Spray Aquanol on the gum and remove. Wipe surface with cleaning agent and cloth.
  • Get rid of Sticky Fingers: Next time you’re working on a project and accidentally get some super glue stuck to your fingers, just spray the area with Aquanol. The sticky glue will come off when you rub your hands together.
  • Remove a Paint Smudge: When you find a paint smudge on your car — say from a rogue shopping trolley in the car park — spray the area with Aquanol and wipe with a clean cloth. It will remove the smudge.
  • Loosen a Zip: That stubborn jacket zip doesn’t stand a chance against Aquanol. Just spray some directly on the zip and pull up and down the teeth a few times. Be careful not to spray any on the material.
  • Remove Floor Scuff Marks: If mopping doesn’t remove scuff marks from the floor, try spraying some Aquanol on the marks and then wipe them away. The lubricant shouldn’t harm the floor, but test in an inconspicuous place beforehand.
  • Get Rid of Sticky Residue: Remove the residue left behind by stickers, tape and labels. Just spray with Aquanol, wait about a minute then wipe the residue away with a cloth.
  • Clean Oil Spots: If there’s an ugly oil spot on your garage floor or the driveway, give the spot a good coat with Aquanol then hose it down. The spot should disappear once the water dries.
  • Remove Grease: Instead of leaving grease all over the bathroom sink, spray your hands with Aquanol as soon as you’re finished working on your car. Rub them together, then wipe with a paper towel and follow with some soap and water.
