"Einige Reinigungsmittelhersteller bieten Spezialprodukte an, welche eine Pflegekomponente enthalten. Diese bilden nach der Reinigung einen feinen Film auf der gereinigten Oberfläche, welche mit einem trockenen Tuch nachpoliert werden sollte."
From a text about some sort of vending machine. This is from a section about cleaning the machine (and specifically, wiping finger marks off it).
I'm not sure exactly what is meant by "Pflegekomponene". Care component? Cosmetic component? At any rate, I cannot find a translation for it in any dictionary. TIA for your help.

polish
This sounds like the polish component of a 'clean and polish' product. I'd suggest a rewording along the lines of 'some manufacturers... offer combined "clean and polish" products...'
