BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a car wax that imparts a glossy and water-repellent coating film, and particularly relates to a car wax that can improve workability when waxing and can use the wax efficiently.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when waxing a painted surface of an automobile, the wax is applied by spreading the wax on the painted surface while removing the wax with a cloth or sponge from a wax container held in one hand. However, the work posture is not stable, and efficient and quick work tends to be difficult. In addition, since the wax is taken out and applied in small quantities many times during the work, it is difficult to apply a uniform wax to the entire coated surface, and partial uncoating occurs or excess wax is applied. It often takes time to wipe off after-treatment when the solidification occurs. In addition, the wax that has soaked in the sponge adheres between your hands and nails during the work and cannot be easily washed off even if you wash it. Waxing requires a great deal of time and labor and is a waste of your hands. It was a win. Furthermore, the conventional solid wax in a can has a drawback that if the lid is forgotten to be closed after use, the volatile component of the content evaporates and the content is hardened, so that it becomes difficult to use and cannot be used up to the end.

For this reason, conventionally, for example, waxes and water-absorbent resins are contained in a bag-like material such as a non-woven fabric or porous plastic, and waxing is performed by waxes that gradually exude on the application surface of the bag-like material. (JP-A-2-202971) or a roll-shaped paper infiltrated with an emulsion type wax composition, which is cut out from a container in predetermined areas and used (JP-A-5-4563). , Have also been proposed.

However, in the former case, since waxing is carried out while the wax is exuding from the bag-like material, the workability is not so good and the fingers are liable to get dirty. On the other hand, in the latter case, in addition to the above-mentioned drawbacks, wax is impregnated with paper impregnated with wax, so that the impregnated amount is limited and the paper must be frequently replaced during operation.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to make waxing on a painted surface of an automobile easy and efficient, to make the wax coating state uniform, to prevent the hand from being stained by the wax, and to always keep an appropriate amount. It is an object of the present invention to provide a wax that can be completely waxed with the above wax.

[0006]

Means for Solving the Problems] The object of the present invention is wax
10-25 % by weight of wax , based on the composition
Components, 10 to 20 % by weight of a silicone compound,
0.01 to 5 % by weight of fluorine compound, 50 to 70 % by weight
The wax component and the silicone
And a fluorine compound in the organic solvent.
The wax composition thus obtained is impregnated into a porous oil-absorbent sheet, and an oil-resistant seal paper is releasably adhered to one surface of the oil-absorbent sheet via an adhesive layer (hereinafter, referred to as a sheet-like wax for automobiles (hereinafter referred to as a wax). It is solved by a sheet wax).

[0007]

When the sheet wax of the present invention is used,
Peel off the sealing paper from the back surface of the porous oil-absorbent sheet such as oil-resistant sponge impregnated with the wax composition, and attach a work base such as sponge to the exposed adhesive layer such as double-sided adhesive tape, Waxing is performed by lightly pressing the front side of the sheet against the painted surface of the vehicle body while gripping this portion.

In this case, the wax composition in which the porous portion of the sheet is uniformly impregnated is uniformly supplied from the entire surface of the sheet to the coated surface by pressing the entire sheet from the work base side. As a result, a wax film is always formed on the entire coated surface with a substantially constant coating amount,
Waxing is completed quickly because the work proceeds smoothly and quickly. Further, since the coating amount is almost uniform as described above, there is no uncoated portion or an excessive coating film portion, and the labor of the wiping operation performed for smoothing the coating film at the end of waxing is significantly simplified.

Further, since the waxing operation is carried out without directly touching the sheet portion impregnated with the wax composition, the hands and nails are not soiled by the wax, and one sheet is used for one unit. Since the work is completed, unlike the conventional canned wax, the contents do not become unusable due to time change such as solidification and oxidation during storage.

In the present invention, since the oil-resistant seal paper is attached to one surface of the oil-absorbent sheet via the adhesive layer such as the double-sided adhesive tape, the sheet of the sheet can be removed by removing the seal paper as described above. The coated surface of the pressure sensitive adhesive is exposed on one surface, and a sponge plate or the like as a work base is temporarily attached to the exposed surface, so that this portion is gripped and waxing is easily performed.

In this case, as the adhesive layer and the oil-resistant seal paper to be combined with this, the constitution of a commercially available double-sided adhesive tape in which a release paper is temporarily attached to one adhesive surface and wound in a roll is used as it is. can do. By using a so-called silicone release paper with a silicone release treatment on the surface as the release paper, the release paper itself becomes oil resistant, and the oil content from the sheet wax during storage oozes out to the backside of the release paper for handling. In that case, there is no risk of soiling the hands, and there is no risk of the release paper falling off from the sheet during the impregnation of the wax composition, for example, during the production of the wax sheet described below.

The combination of the wax impregnated sheet and the release paper is enclosed in a unit of oil-proof plastic film such as high-density polyethylene or polyethylene with aluminum vapor-deposited on its inner surface, and its opening is heat-sealed. It is preferable to keep it closed. In such an embodiment, the surroundings are not contaminated by the components of the sheet-like wax during storage, and the used sheet can be easily treated. Further, since the wax composition is hermetically sealed in the package, the wax composition is not likely to be solidified and deteriorated by the outside air and the outside moisture, and can be always used in a good state.

In the present invention, it is particularly preferable that one sheet of wax is unpacked and taken out from the film package, and the entire coated surface is waxed without excess or deficiency. For that purpose, the wax in ordinary waxing is used. The amount of the wax composition impregnated into the oil-absorbent sheet is determined in consideration of the coating amount per unit area and the effective use amount. In this case, the impregnated amount varies depending on the properties and shape of the oil-absorbent sheet, the dimensions, the components of the wax composition itself and the temperature at the time of use, but the applied amount per 1 m ² is about 3.5 g / m ^2. For example, the range of 10 to 50 g, and in the case of general passenger cars, the range of 15 to 30 g is preferable.

Examples of the porous oil-absorbent sheet impregnated with the wax composition include oil-resistant sponge and non-woven fabric. In order to store the above-mentioned amount of the composition in a sufficient and controllable manner, the oil-resistant property is set. It is preferable to use a sponge, and in order to impregnate one sheet with the above-mentioned content, the size and shape of the sheet should be 2 to 30 mm, preferably 3 to 10 mm.
mm, length 80 to 200 mm, preferably 100 to 150 mm,
The width is 30 to 100 mm, preferably about 50 to 80 mm.

The organic solvent used in the wax composition of the present invention is a solvent used for known waxes such as hydrocarbons such as mineral spirit and white kerosene, esters, etc., and has a boiling point in the range of 150 to 200 ° C. Can be used alone or in combination, the amount used is 5
It is 0 to 70% by weight, preferably about 60 to 65%.
When it is 50% by weight or less, it becomes difficult to uniformly dissolve the components, and when it is 65% by weight or more, solidification as a product wax becomes insufficient.

As the wax component, natural waxes such as carnauba wax and candelilla wax, which are also known as binder components for car wax, paraffin wax and synthetic wax can be used alone or as a mixture, and the amount thereof is used. 10 to 25% by weight, preferably about 16 to 20% by weight in relation to the amount of the organic solvent used
Is.

As the silicone compound, a known material such as silicone oil added to improve workability and water repellency at the time of wiping this kind of wax composition can be used, and the amount thereof is the above-mentioned. The amount is 10 to 20% by weight, preferably 13 to 17% in consideration of the amount of the wax component of the organic solvent used.

Fluorine compounds are usually used for improving the water repellency and antifouling property of car waxes. For example, fluorohydrocarbons and perfluorohydrocarbons are added in an amount of 0.01 to 5% by weight depending on their properties. Used. Particularly, it is preferable to use the acrylic fluorine compound in the range of about 0.3 to 1% by weight.

When impregnating the oil-resistant sponge with the wax composition, the composition is heated and dissolved at 70 to 100 ° C., preferably 80 to 95 ° C. and the solution is impregnated with the oil-resistant sponge sheet, After pulling up, it is left to cool or cooled with cold air so that the solid wax is occluded in the oil resistant sponge.
