Mothers® Product History
The Mothers® Polishes-Waxes-Cleaners was founded in 1971 as a family owned and operated business. Over the years, Mothers® has improved its core technology in correlation with changes in paint technologies and has always offered premium car care products that span most all markets. The people at Mothers® firmly believe that the time people spend cleaning their vehicles is an investment in the health and beauty of those vehicles and, because of this philosophy, they have dedicated decades to perfecting their science and bringing consumers the highest quality products. There is no shine like Mothers®.
Mothers® Products
Airborne contaminants, corrosive pollutants and harsh environmental conditions can all contribute to the premature aging of a car’s paint. Regular washing and waxing can easily make the difference between a long lasting, luminous glow, or a dull, dumpy finish. Proper vehicle maintenance involves cleaning paint and keeping it clean, which is a much smarter choice, in the long run, than trying to repair distressed, damaged paint. Mothers® offers a unique and wide product line that includes everything needed to clean, polish and care for vehicles.
The Mothers® product line is divided into four distinct categories: Reflections®, FX, Power Products and California Gold/Mothers Original. Each unique product category helps discerning consumers decide what types of products best suit their vehicles as well as their individual outcome intentions.
