With almost everything these days being disposable and made from plastic I decided to find some old containers and make use of these for our entertainment. I love to 'tinker' and the idea of fixing something and keeping it going for just a little longer makes me smile. So to use some of these old examples of 'tin' cans in the aid of fun hopefully will bring a smile to your face, at least it'll bring a 'smilie' to your profile.

Happy travelling.

CO Waxshine

Established in 1923, CO Products Limited manufactures and distributes a range of oils and waxes used to clean, polish and protect furniture, floors and many other surfaces.

Founded by Minnie Bardsley in a small wooden building, the company still operates from the same site close to Wellington Hospital in Newtown.

The first product produced was the classic CO Polishing Oil, followed soon after by our natural wax polish, CO Waxshine. Both products are still manufactured today using Minnie’s original recipe.
