An English word, but in German it sounds almost the same, though differently spelled.

AIR ?
'Air' and 'Luft' even don't sound similar, do they? :scratch:

It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

OIL?
Not Oil, but that's the closest so far. (product-wise not phonetically)

FAT?
Not FAT but close again. The word I've been looking for is more a sales product while fat or oil are ingredients...

ImpishGrin

So, it's some kind of grease/lubricant?

That's what my source reveals:

quote:
Die Firma Auto-Wax in Berlin-Charlottenburg bot 1961-1962 Sportwagen mit Kunststoffkarosserie an, die auf einer um 10 cm verkürzten Bodengruppe der Giulietta von Alfa Romeo basierten. Der Wax bzw. Wax-Alfa wurde als Coupé und als Cabriolets angeboten. Einige dieser Sportwagen nahmen am Berliner Avus-Rennen teil, gefahren von Herbert Schultze und Wilhelm Heckel. In der gleichen Firma wurden auch einige Kunststoff-Karosserien nach Entwürfen des Designers Luigi Colani angefertigt.


~ Auto-Wax in Berlin-Charlottenburg offered plastic-bodied sports cars from 1961-62 which were based on a 10 cm shortened AR Giulietta chassis. Coupé and cabriolet were sold under the name "Wax" or Wax Alfa". Some of these started at Berlin's Avus race piloted by Herbert Schultze and Wilhelm Heckel.
Wax also built plastic bodies designed by Luigi Colani.

One point for Tom_I.
