Eaton Automotive Chemical Company has been packaging and distributing automotive products since 1932.

The company was founded by Hudson Eaton and is now owned and managed by second and third generations of the Eaton family.

Originally started as a wholesale oil distributor selling to trucking companies, construction companies and new car dealers the company expanded into automotive chemical products after WWII. Specializing in maintenance and cleaning products, its customer base expanded to include wholesale automotive distributors and warehouses.

In the sixties, the company entered the retail aftermarket, selling its Bodyguard brand of corrosion and appearance products to new and used car dealers. Throughout the seventies and early eighties, the company expanded throughout the U.S., Canada, and several foreign countries.

By the early eighties, the company counted nearly two thousand new car dealers as customers, selling over a half million contracts annually.

In the mid eighties, the Bodyguard division was sold to a group of Investors in Columbus, Ohio and Eaton Oil Co. was retained by the Eaton family, continued to manufacture and distribute appearance and maintenance products.

In 1999, the company made the decision to re-enter the retail aftermarket, selling its "Show & Shine Protection System" to new and used car dealer customers. Initially starting in Florida and the Northeast United States, the company intends to expand nationwide within the next five years.

The company has its packaging plant Canton, Ohio and sales offices in Ohio and Florida.
