Carnauba Wax Benefits: About Carnauba Wax

Carnauba wax has long been revered as the best all-around product for vehicle finish maintenance, particularly in the realm of automotive polish. This reputation stems from Carnauba's high heat tolerance and its remarkable ability to bring a painted finish to a rich, deep luster. Additionally, its hardness contributes to a long-lasting finish, making Carnauba a staple in many industries, particularly the automotive industry, where these qualities are highly valued.

The hardest wax known to man, Carnauba wax, has a very strong grain structure, making it the hardest wax available for automotive polish. In addition to being incredibly durable, carnauba dries to a deep, natural shine that enhances vehicle finish maintenance. In contrast, bee’s wax, paraffin, and many synthetic waxes tend to cloud and occlude, preventing painted finishes from looking their best. 

The Copernicia Cerifera tree, which grows in parts of South America, produces the premium quality carnauba wax used by 1903 Spray on Polish. However, only the trees in the Northeastern rainforests of Brazil yield this exceptional wax. Carnauba wax is created by the leaves of the tropical carnauba tree to protect against the harsh conditions of the tropical rainforest—intense heat, strong equatorial sunlight, consistent moisture, and humidity. Much like these tropical leaves, surfaces coated with carnauba wax enjoy the same durable protection, perfect for maintaining a stunning vehicle finish.
