                  WYNN'S INTERNATIONAL, INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS
                          OF DUTCH AUCTION TENDER OFFER


     ORANGE, Calif., April 23, 1997--Wynn's International, Inc. (NYSE:WN)
announced today the preliminary results of its Dutch Auction self-tender offer.
Based on a preliminary count by the depositary for the tender offer, the Company
said that it expects to purchase 1,100,000 shares of its Common Stock, $1.00 par
value per share, from its stockholders at a price of $24.25 per share in
accordance with the terms of the tender offer.  The tender offer expired at
12:00 Midnight (Eastern time) on Tuesday, April 22, 1997.

     Under the terms of the tender offer, which commenced on March 26, 1997, the
Company had offered to purchase for cash up to 1,100,000 shares, or
approximately 8.0%, of its issued and outstanding Common Stock at a purchase
price, net to the seller in cash, not greater than $25.00 nor less than $22.00
per share.  Because approximately 1,597,843 shares were tendered at or below the
price of $24.25 per share (including 321,503 shares tendered pursuant to
guaranteed delivery procedures), the number of shares actually purchased from
each tendering stockholder will be prorated based on the proration method
described in the Company's Offer to Purchase.  The preliminary proration factor
is approximately 69%.  The exact number of shares to be purchased and the final
proration factor will be determined upon final review of the validity of all
tender documentation, which is expected to be completed in approximately one
week.

     Payment for shares properly tendered and accepted will be made as promptly
as practicable following the determination of the final results of the tender
offer.



                                                                      ---- more

     The Company will return to tendering stockholders all shares not

excess of $24.25, shares not purchased because of proration and shares that 
were conditionally tendered and not accepted for purchase.  The Company 
anticipates that payment for shares properly tendered and accepted will be 
mailed to tendering stockholders on or after April 29, 1997, and that shares 
that were tendered but not accepted for purchase will be returned to 
tendering stockholders on or after May 5, 1997.

                                                                       ---- more
