About Us
Your car’s changed a lot over the last century, but we’ve still got the solutions to your problems. Douglas Holt first started developing products to keep his own car running, and 100 years later we’re still working hard to keep your car on the road, getting rid of those clunks, leaks and squeaks. During the war, Douglas Holt spent time working for Austin Motor Company where he learnt about motor cars and mechanics. After the war, keen to use his knowledge and earn his own money, he opened a small shop selling car parts.
Early cars experienced many problems as people got used to the technology. Many cars suffered cracked cylinder heads due to people not using anti-freeze, leading to leaks. To solve this problem, Douglas Holt launched Wondarweld to allow people to seal leaks in their cars easily. Wondarweld is still sold today. Holt continued to innovate, and new products were created thanks to problems with his own car. Gun Gum was one such product, invented after Holt’s own exhaust needed repairing. Gun Gum is one of Holts’ most successful products, still available today.
1990 saw the launch of Bradex, another solution to a frustrating problem for drivers. Bradex is used when your car won’t start, to get you on the road. This useful product is still available today as Bradex Easy Start. In 2018 we launched our Headlight Restoration Kit, a quick and easy to use kit which removes scratches and oxidation for clearer, brighter headlights.
