Company Press Release

Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc. Declares Dividend

Announces Program for Open Market Purchase of Company Shares for Its ESOP

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 11, 1998--Mr. Jerome J. Goldstein, Chairman of the Board of Scott's Liquid
Gold-Inc., announced that, based upon the Company's 1997 performance, the Company's Board of Directors has declared a
dividend of ten cents ($0.10) a share on its common stock to holders of record on February 24, 1998.

The dividend is expected to be paid on March 2, 1998. The Company has made no decision regarding future dividends.

Mr. Goldstein stated that the ten cent dividend is equal to approximately 28% of the Company's after tax operating income of
$0.36 a share for 1997 vs. $0.13 per share for 1996. During 1997, in addition to the $0.36 a share, the Company had
non-recurring income of $0.24 a share, for a total net income of $.60 a share in 1997 compared to a loss of $0.09 a share in
1996.

Mr. Goldstein noted that Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc. has produced an operating profit in each year over the last decade. The
Company's performance over the last ten years was the major contributor to the growth of shareholder's equity which, at
December 31, 1997, amounted to about $21,875,000, equal to $2.17 a share. The Company has paid a 10 cent dividend for
three of the last 4 years.

Mr. Goldstein also stated that, as a result of Board action, the Company intends to purchase up to 30,000 shares of its
common stock in the open market. He said that the Board of Directors views the Company's stock as a good investment and
that the Company intends to use the reacquired stock for contributions to its Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

Separately, the Company noted that dividends to be received by the Company's Employee Stock Ownership Plan, which will
amount to approximately $107,000, are expected to be used by the Plan to purchase additional shares of the Company's
common stock on the open market.

The Company is a manufacturer of household chemicals and skin care products.

Hi Bill : was SGD's buy-back a pleasant surprise ?

SGD's direct purchase was welcome , but what do you think about having SGD's Employee Fund use its 2/24/98 dividend to buy added shares ?

Ten (10) years of consecutive earnings , 3 dividend years in the last 4 years --- only missing achievement is sales increases year over year , which SGD is addressing .

Any idea how SGD's 1Q98 sales are going ?

Thanks,
Jim K.
