Always Focused on Car Enthusiasts: The History of Collinite from 1936 to Today
In 1936, the namesake Charles H. Collins founded the company. Mr. Collins was a sales representative for Gabriel Snubber Distribution, a company for auto parts and chemical products, in the 1920s. As a salesman with a strong sense of customer satisfaction, Collins began developing his own formula for industrial cleaners and waxes. He sold his products locally after losing his job at Gabriel Snubber Distribution during the Great Depression.
Over the decades, Charles developed Collinite with his son Chuck. Customer satisfaction has always been and remains the focus of all products. Expensive advertising, elaborate packaging, and exaggerated shows are not found at Collinite.
In 1983, Chuck Collins was looking for a successor and chose the teacher and photographer Mike Tylor. This was an extraordinary step, as Mike was not a businessman. However, he quickly proved to be the perfect fit, as Mike was able to generate enthusiasm for Collinite products and made Collinite known worldwide through "word of mouth".
Collinite Today: The Detailing Family Business
Since 2013, Collinite has been run by the sons of Mike Taylor, Mark and Patrick. The brothers have divided their tasks: Mark is responsible for sales while Patrick handles production and product development. The minimalist web presence shows that Collinite has not lost any of its old charm and remains a family business in the detailing industry. One can see the brothers with their young children, already with the next generation, in their arms on the phone and in the production and warehouse halls.
