How Does It Work?
Show Shine polish creates a durable, hydrophobic coating by chemically bonding to the paint surface at the molecular level.
Silicon dioxide alone is excellent at creating a durable, smooth, and water resistant surface, however it lacks the glossy fire of a natural wax. Carnauba wax has been trusted by vehicle enthusiasts for decades for it's brilliant gloss, but natural wax alone is soft and requires a relatively thick coating to be effective. This thick application can easily cause an unsightly yellowish buildup if not completely stripped between treatments, not to mention the white residue that can be left on seals and trim.
By combining natural carnauba wax with a proprietary graphene resin, our chemists have created a wax that can go on incredibly thin. The combination of all three of these components, along with an application lubricant, results in a thin surface layer that is not only brilliantly glossy, but is also made to be durable. The coating will last months in typical environmental conditions without buildup, without stripping between applications, and without the tell tale white residue.
Simply spray it on, and hand buff with the included microfiber towel. That's it!

What is graphene?
Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal, honeycomb-like structure that is one atom thick. It is known for being incredibly strong, flexible, and an excellent conductor of heat and electricity.
Graphene is used to enhance durability, add protective properties, and improve performance. Its key purposes include making coatings more resistant to corrosion, heat, and UV damage, creating a smoother, more hydrophobic surface that repels water and dirt, and providing antistatic and electromagnetic shielding. This leads to longer-lasting coatings and a need for less frequent polishing or repainting, which also reduces waste.
What are phthalates, and why are they bad?
Phthalates are used in many personal care products such as colognes, perfumes, air fresheners, soaps, and shampoos, and in the coatings of some medications.
Despite the short half-lives in human tissues, chronic exposure to phthalates will adversely influence the endocrine system and functioning of multiple organs, which has negative long-term impacts on the success of pregnancy, child growth and development, and reproductive systems in both young children and adolescents
Gemini Chemical will never use phthalates in any of our products.

Why aluminum?
Aluminum is 7% of the Earth's crust, but the environmental appeal of aluminum is due primarily to its recyclability. In fact, aluminum is at the top of the recycling chain because of its infinite recyclability without any degradation in its quality. That’s why more than two-thirds of all the aluminum ever produced remains in use today. In contrast, less than 10% of all plastics EVER produced has been recycled. Recycling aluminum requires only 5% of the energy when compared with the production of native aluminum.
Not a single beach on the planet is littered with discarded aluminum. For more information about plastic pollution, and how you can help, click below.
