FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ORANGE, CALIFORNIA, April 23, 1998 - Wynn's International, Inc. (NYSE:WN)
reported today that on April 20, 1998, Local 692 of the International
Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers went on strike against the two
Lebanon, Tennessee facilities of Wynn's-Precision, Inc. (Precision), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The strike followed unsuccessful
negotiations between Precision and the Union to extend the expiring collective
bargaining agreement for the Lebanon facilities.
Precision's Lebanon facilities are continuing with limited production
using existing non-union employees. Precision's six other major production
facilities are unaffected by the strike. Certain work has been transferred
to other Precision facilities.

James Carroll, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, said,
"The Company is presently unable to predict what impact, if any, the strike will
have on the financial results of the Company. The effect of the strike will
depend on its duration and the ability of Precision's Lebanon facilities to
continue production during the strike using other available existing and
replacement employees."
