Abstract:
1. A sprayable water-based composition for enhancing shine or gloss in an elastomeric surface, the composition being in the form of an aqueous dispersion comprising: (a) from about 0.1% to about 20% by weight of at least one polydiorganosiloxane fluid; (b) from about 0.02 to about 2.0% by weight of an alkali-swellable acrylic homopolymer crosslinked with a polyalkenyl polyether or an alkali-swellable acrylic copolymer crosslinked with a polyalkenyl polyether; (c) from about 85% to about 98% by weight of water; (d) one or more solvents wherein the composition only contains solvents which have a refractive index of about 1.4 to about 1.5; and (e) from about 0.10 to about 1.0% of a silicone wetting agent for reducing surface tension when dissolved in water or a water solution.
