A request to the former floor trader "You know who you are"

Dear "Someone, somewhere in Canada"

I've just reread your PM to me - and the part under:

"READ THIS NEXT FEW LINES CAREFULLY"

where you describe the SV-35A efficacy is just TOO JUICY to leave hidden from everyone on planet Earth!! Here's a field test conducted today!!! We don't have many first hand field reports - very few really.

Come on now - you're on board - you've have seen SV-35(A) in action with your own eyes - that makes you a player here!!! If we all decide not to share our information [with the occasional error - corrected when requested :-) ] then what's the use of posting anything?

I hope to see a PM from you tomorrow AM saying that it's OK to post those few lines :-) I won't say who you are - or where you're from - just the brief report - and cc it to Gino who can also vouche for it's authenticity.

David in Ontario

OK, I bit. I ordered 5-gallons of SV-35A today, I am expecting it to arrive early next week. When I first spoke to Napier this morning, the person (accountant) who answered the phone confirmed that sales of SV-35 are indeed increasing month-over-month.

I called Lorne Klipper (Napier's Product Manager) to ask his recommendations on which SV-35 product would best suit my intended applications. Also I asked about a few other things (retail consumer packaging in aerosols) and he seemed to indicate there would likely be news this month but things lately 'are keeping the lawyers busy'. He was of course referring to tying up loose ends with the Aquasol merger, product distribution, etc.

Lorne is also very optimistic about Napier's products and prospects, we both agreed that the aerosol packaging should prove to be a major success. I also asked about the shelf life of SV-35. Difficult to determine when the product has existed for only a few months, but Lorne said that it should be good for at least a year when properly stored.

I am presently restoring a car and have a variety of coatings which I would like to use and test SV-35 on including paint, sealant, undercoating, adhesive, and maybe even plastic filler (bondo). My Dad's neighbor is also restoring a car but is using a methylene-chloride based paint stripper in areas (the stuff evaporates quickly and dissolves paint effectively but emits toxic fumes and leaves a mess of the paint). The neighbor is skeptical how SV-35 works but we will see his reaction after a side-by-side comparison test of SV-35 vs. his toxic gunk. If SV-35 works effectively after being applied once then it may very well be cheaper than the MC-based stuff which often requires multiple applications. And of course SV-35 is safer, non-toxic / biodegradable, and also allows a 'cleaner' paint removal. Oh yeah, and my Mom wants to re-finish an old milk can too. Dad thinks the old milk can is galvanized, so sand blasting is definitely out of the question.

PS, I also learned that SV-35 ingredients are so benign that the product does not need to be regulated under the Transportation of Dangerous Goods act, shipping is greatly simplified! Other MC-based strippers certainly are regulated, and even many (most, or maybe all) of the other 'friendlier' stripper products contain acid (which is also regulated).
