At BAF, a full time research and development staff of experienced chemists devote themselves to producing "state of the art" car care products. We have control over quality and price because we make all of our own products. By manufacturing the complete PROŽ line, we can deliver the most consistent quality of professional car care products available today. It is no surprise that more professionals use PROŽ Products than any others.

In fact, it was PROŽ Products that was trusted to wax the most expensive car in the world in 1986 (1931 Bugatti Royale - $6.5 million). In addition, it was PROŽ Products that were rated #1 in the industry by Professional Carwashing & Detailing Magazine in 1989. In this survey, professional detailers were asked to list their most frequently used product brand in five categories (compounds, polishes/waxes, dressings, shampoos and cleaners/solvents). Over 600 different car care products from numerous manufacturers were mentioned in each category. The results were the same in the 1991 Detailing Survey.

When you purchase PROŽ Products, you receive instant protection because everything we offer conforms to U.S. Federal and Safety Packaging Specifications.
