I actually have a full page newspaper add, (both sides of a opened newspaper), for this bottle of Turtle Wax from 1950. It's interesting in that the ink for the ad is both black and green. Something I would guess is kind of rare in a newspaper from 1950.

By the way, the bottle touts that the wax contains Brillium

A bit weird this!!! but I have just got in from giving my new car a good dose of "Johnsons Rally Wax" !!!!!

a) As you can see I'm a :newbie:!! - I'll introduce myself in the right forum asap!

b) I've just bought a beautiful M3 convertible Individual, and my desire to make the most of its rare Nachtblau paintwork has got me looking at DW, and trying to learn something about what is obviously a pretty cool world going on in here.

c) being a sunday I got into my garage and rooted through all my old gear to stumble on 2 tins of Johnsons Rally Wax!! - I used to work for SC Johnson in the early 90's and the staff shop used to sell tins for a pound. I had a 'stock' at one point, but only 2 left now! I've not used it for 10 years!!!!

d) the tin DOES have a picture of a red mk1 sierra cosworth on it!! - in red.

e) my M3 looks nice now!! :lol::lol:

f) if I get time, I'll take a couple of pics of the tin and the car and post them up if I can figure out how to do it!

All the best to you all on here! From what I've seen as a guest you're obviously a really great bunch...:thumb:
