Patent number: 4880557Abstract: A spray lustering-cleansing agent is produced by preparing a basic material substantially comprising 5.0 to 60 wt % of silicone oil obtained by emulsifying silicone oil with water in the presence of an emulsifier, 0.1 to 10.0 wt % of an emulsifier, and water and charging a spray can with the basic material in combination with a foam regulating agent and a propellant. A single spray is enough for the lustering-cleansing agent to clean a dirty tire and, at the same time, impart luster to the surface. Additional incorporation of a water-soluble organic base in the agent enables this agent to manifest an improved foaming property and consequently an improved lustering-cleansing effect.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 1988Date of Patent: November 14, 1989Assignee: Taiho Industries Co., Ltd.Inventors: Sosaburo Ohara, Atsushi Ikeda, Seigo Shinohara, Tetsuo Kijima
