Jay Leno’s career as a car guy is expanding beyond his well-known vehicle collection and national TV show.

Jay Leno’s Garage -- Advanced Vehicle Care launched Friday, Nov. 25, with a seven-piece vehicle care kit.

The kit, which retails for $59.99 online only, includes a wash, cream wax, quick detailer, tire and trim dressing, wax and dressing applicator pads and a microfiber towel.

The lineup is to expand to include waxes, soaps, cleaners, protectants, dressings and accessories, according to a press release.

Leno and his detailing team worked with product engineers and chemists to develop vehicle care formulas and partnered with AP51, a detailing supply and chemical development company in Burbank, Calif., for the products.

“When you fix something with your hands, it gives you a sense of accomplishment,” Leno said in a statement. “A sense of self-worth. Then, when you actually get to drive and enjoy the fruits of your labor, the work becomes worth it.”

Leno, who became a household name from hosting “The Tonight Show,” has remained on national TV with “Jay Leno’s Garage” on CNBC. The show features various vehicles, often including Leno’s own collection.
