Started in 1859, when a 22 year-old chemist from
Brooklyn, New York named Robert A. Chesebrough,
went to Pennsylvania to investigate an oil well. The oil
industry was in its infancy, and Chesebrough, like
many, was hoping to profit from it.
While Chesebrough was there, he discovered a gooey
substance known as 'Rod Wax' that was causing the oil
rig workers problems, as it stuck to the drilling rigs,
causing them to seize up.
This has led to the birth of a famous brand. Name it.

โThe origin of the word _______ is the Latin bulga, a little

The word turned up in English in the fifteenth century,
having travelled via the French bougette, a diminutive
