SG Ken finds Teflon hard to handle. Those Teflon glides keep slipping out of his hands.

On a more serious note.
Most consumers think of Teflon in a frying pan not on carpets. Now SCOTCHGARD is a different story. 3M have spent millions on Scotchgard advertising. Why not capitalize on it??? It's a tv pre-sold product.

You don't need to sell it.

Simply suggest it.

Now if you are protecting fine furniture always use a solvent base as opposed to water base. May cost more but Safer, Safer, Safer.

Ken:  How is it safer. For the person applying it?? For the homeowner inhaleing it?  Are you informing the homeowner before hand??  We also use  a solvernt based protrctor,  But don't tell me it is safer.  Becaues I will Have to tell you, you are full of sh**.Guitar

You are wacking the wrong guy doug. I said safer, safer, safer. Give Ken a break for a moment or so. But I agree the solvent protector may be safer for the fabric and dyes. But not necessarily the people's pets and indoor quality.

I concur that solvent base is safer on fine funiture cause it will dry faster. The faster it drys the safer for all.
