Benjamin Hirsch had a dream to become a chemist, but when the Great Depression forced him to drop out of school, he became a magician to support his family. His passion for cars and chemistry came together when he started making batches of liquid car polish in his bathtub, while his wife, Marie, filled the bottles. With just a small investment of $500 and a store front on Chicago Avenue, Hirsch created the world's first liquid car polish, plastone. Being the entrepreneur that he was, Hirsch would sell his wax by polishing a fender of a parked car, wait for the owner to return, and then point out the benefits. When making a sales call to Beloit, Wisconsin in 1953, he came across a turtle's hard shell and the protection that his wax offered. From that day on, Hirsch's dream would become reality in Turtle Wax. After decades of success, Turtle Wax remains a family owned company, keeping true to their innovative spirit, tradition, and quality products. Made in USA.
