XOLEUM
Advanced lubricant technology for high performance petrol and diesel engines.
XOLEUM is a range of semi-synthetic and fully synthetic motor oils to meet the latest API and CEA requirements. XOLEUM also incorporates a range of low ash/low SAPS (sulphated ash, phosphorus & sulphur) fully synthetic engine oils to meet the requirements of the latest generation vehicles with exhaust after treatment devices. Low SAPS engines can form ash on combustion, which can lead to the DPF becoming clogged up by soot, damaging the filter and impairing engine and emissions performance. So it is essential that low SAPS engine oils are used for diesel and petrol vehicles with exhaust treatment systems. The XOLEUM programme has the very latest specs including: 0w/20 for the Japanese petrol and diesel engines 5/w20 for the latest eco boost engines.
WD40
In 1953, in a small lab in San Diego, California, the fledgeling Rocket Chemical Company and its staff of three set out to create a line of rust-prevention solvents and degreasers for use in the aerospace industry.
It took them 40 attempts to get their water displacing formula to work, but on the 40th attempt, they got it right in a big way. WD-40 was born. WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, 40th formula. That’s the name straight out of the lab book used by the chemist who developed the product.
The first company to use WD-40 commercially was Convair, an aerospace contractor, to protect the outer skin of the Atlas Missile from rust and corrosion. The product worked so well that several employees snuck cans of WD-40 out of the plant in their lunchboxes to use at home.
A few years later, Rocket Chemical Company founder and president Norm Larsen experimented with putting WD-40 into aerosol cans, reasoning consumers might also find a use for the product in their home workshops and garages.

SEXWAX
In the early 1970’s, Zog was shaping boards and running a small surf shop in Goleta, California. As fate would have, a chemist named Nate Skinner worked in a building next to Zog’s shop. Zog and Nate got to talking and decided that with Nate’s scientific training and Zog’s surfing background, they were the perfect pair to develop a unique, high-performance surfboard wax.
Over the course of the next year, Nate created and modified various wax prototypes, which Zog tested and evaluated under actual surfing conditions. Eventually they arrived at a formula that met their specifications.
When the first batch of Sex Wax was ready for market, Zog loaded up his Ford pickup truck and hit the road on a sales run. For the next few days, he stopped at every surf shop he could find from Santa Cruz to San Diego, trying to interest owners in purchasing a case of wax. At first, many retailers were reluctant to stock a new wax with a “suggestive” label and no track record. A few, however, were intrigued by the catchy name and decided to give it a try.
Slowly, by word of mouth, praise for the new wax spread up and down the California coast, and demand for the product grew steadily. Convenience stores and surf shops that had originally declined to carry Sex Wax, now called and asked to be included on the list of businesses Zog visited on his monthly sales runs. Soon, surfers from the East Coast, Gulf States, Hawaii and Japan wanted stores and shops in their areas to stock Zog’s wax, and within a few short years, Sex Wax reached a world-wide market.
