A method having at least one subscriber subscribing to topics from one or more data sources. The data sources available and the number of subscriptions for each data source are registered in a table in real time. Upon detecting either subscription activity by the subscribers or availability of data on a data source, a matching routine compares the subscriptions registered for the available data source and enables the sending of messages from the available data source to subscriber/s.

An auto finish-treating composition universally useful on paint, metal, vinyl and other plastic finishes comprises micronized wax dispersed in a water/organic solvent emulsion also containing silicone liquid emulsified in both the organic and aqueous phases.

The glazing agent contains at least one member selected from a group consisting of a petroleum solvent, silicone oil and wax and at least one member selected from a group consisting of a lower alcohol, oil-soluble ionic surfactant and silicone resin. The glazing agent is excellent in detergency of a stain, or lime deposit, particularly on a coating surface of the vehicle body, as well as in water repelency and its continuity.

A buffing composition for imparting very fine finishes to automobile surfaces. The buffing composition contains no silicone-containing materials and comprises alumina abrasive and a synthetic wax dispersed in a liquid medium. The liquid medium can be a solvent, water, a hydrocarbon oil, or mixtures thereof. The buffing composition can optionally contain other additives or modifiers such as wetting agents, thickeners, stabilizers, preservatives, emulsifiers, dyes, pigments and perfumes.

A wax polish comprises a wax, e.g. beeswax, turpentine and/or white spirit, and alum. The polish may also comprise a vegetable or mineral oil, acetic acid, resin and/or blue stone.

An aqueous floor-care, self-shine emulsion composition having a pH of 5 to 9 containing a natural or synthetic wax and an alcohol selected from benzyl alcohol, 2-phenylethanol, 2-phenoxyethanol and mixtures thereof.

This invention relates to an abrasive-containing surface-finish composition, comprising: an effective amount of abrasive particulates to enhance the non-slip characteristics of said composition, said abrasive particulates having an average particle size of up to about 100 microns. The surface finish-composition can be water-based or oil-based. In one embodiment the surface-finish composition further comprises water, at least one acrylic polymer and at least one synthetic wax. Optional ingredient...

Wax-based composition for protecting and polishing paint, plastic and metal surfaces, or as a mold release, to remain free of clinging dust, comprising a first hydrocarbon wax having a relatively higher HLB value, a second hydrocarbon wax having a relatively lower HLB value, the first and second waxes being combined into a wax blend having an intermediate HLB value based on the proportions of each wax, a solvent for the blend, the solvent having a given HLB value, the HLB value of the wax-solven...

A paste-like composition for abrasively cleaning and polishing hard surfaces which comprises silica, stearic acid, mineral seal oil, and petroleum distillate. The composition can be applied with a cleaning cloth, buffing pad or the like which has been impregnated with it. When used to polish metals, wood, plastic, fiberglass, painted surfaces or the like, the composition gives a characteristically brilliant shine.

Stable aqueous polyolefin wax dispersions contain A) from 5 to 65% by weight of polyethylene wax or polypropylene wax having a mean particle size of from 1 to 50 .mu.m and an acid number of less than 5 mg of KOH/g of wax and B) from 0.5 to 20% by weight of glyceride of predominantly ethylenically monounsaturated or polyunsaturated C.sub.16 -C.sub.22 -monocarboxylic acids which may additionally contain hydroxyl groups, which glyceride has been reacted with from 1 to 50 mol of a 1,2-alkylene oxide...
