Speaking of Bob, he is having a big clearance sale right now. Alot of Four Star items on sale along with some Poorboys and Clearkote products on sale. Also on sale are some of the Lake Country Foam Curved Edge Variable Contact Pads that some people like so much. I may have to try those now that I have a rotary. Some people on here say those pads greatly eliminate hazing. Worth giving them a try since they are on sale.

As much as I like Bob and his business, its funny they feature that in the magazine and not chemical guys (considering thats who makes it).



His service is excellent, and I much prefer ordering from him over autogeek (I've spent thousands at autogeek and they wouldn't give me one free sample when I asked, so I stopped ordering from them completely), but I like to buy my products as close to the original manufacturer as possible.



Not that I don't think its a good product, CG makes great products and bob has great service :)

Ugh, sometimes I wonder.....:secret



Great job Bob @ Danase!
 
Bob, good marketing congratulations. Let us know how the sales of that product go after the spotlight in the magazine.



CG? Why bring that into this? CG didn't get the product into the magazine, Bob did.
 
Thanks everyone!



All I can say about the CG comments is this is one of the reasons I don't come to autopia much anymore. I just shake my head when I read comments like that. I don't think you guys realize how many products you eat, wear, and use in a day that was not made by who's name is on the product.

I totally agree with you Bob.



The world revolves around Marketing, while a few manufacturers produce the products, they are then set up for packaging and then brand labeling. Then it is up to the private labelers to mass market their own product to the public.



Great job on the advertisement. Hope it goes well for you.:2thumbs:

Are you serious??



So because a product is purchased from a distributor the end seller doesn't have the right to advertise.... Are you loco???



You obviously have no idea how the industry (or most for that matter) function..



Congrats Bob.. you deserve all the success this add can afford you.. don't let the ignorant keep you away,.

Scum-bag Crate & Barrel is giving me a headache over a $7,100 couch. I found out who the manufacturer of the couch is by grabbing a book from behind one of the check-out deks, McCreary of North Carolina, and contacted them to collect some information.



This is re-labeling. Crate & Barrel is just a retail store. They buy other peoples products, call them their own, then mark them up to the sky and sell them. Do you hear people shouting in the streets about this? Well, since they are F-ing me, you will now. I am preparing a You Tube video.

Well that sucks to hear that.



The world revolves around retail/marketing while a very small portion produces the product, especially if it is made in the USA.



Back 15 years ago, I worked for this sheet metal company and we produced many products for different companies. I was building all the metal parts for a big popular name brand computer company. When I went to the company, I was shocked to see how much of their products were all independent contracted. You would think a company that big would have manufactured all of their hardware, but nope.



We also produced light fixtures for name brand light companies and we would install everything and ship it to them. They then would inspect them and label them and re-package everything.



Why is this?



Simply the overhead. You have millions of dollars worth of machines, larger payroll, more insurance, more taxes, higher workers comp., larger facility, and the rest of the bills go up too to manufacture the product.



The wax market is still too small. If they were to invent, manufacture, market, and to do it all, they would have to sell a bottle for 100's to thousands to make a profit. Especially in this weak economy.



Take Zymol for example. They have to sell their waxes for a high profit in order to stay in business. If you are paying $2000 for a wax, that means they spent under $100 to produce it. If you don't believe me, then ask some manufacturers.
 
The funny thing is, it is not just the small companies. Johnson and Johnson does not make many of their own products. Basically their researchers come up with a product and then the put the contract to manufacture the product out for bid. When I worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers, J&J was a client I did a little work with. When I was working at J&J's Consumer Products Division, I talked with a guy whose job was to do surprise quality control visits to the companies who won bids. Before hand, I just assumed J&J made most of what the sold. In reality they only invent/develop their products, then hire someone else to produce.
 
WOW!! Talk about a spin on a thread that is supposed to congratulate or compliment someone for a decent accomplishment. We should have the “CG relabel debateâ€� within the other thread with the “CG Relabelâ€� name. Let us give Bob his dues. He has great customer service, decent shipping rates, good prices, a varied selection and his products (no matter who puts the product in the bottle) are top notch. Period…

That is enough for me.



Congrats Bob. I may order myself a bottle to try out.
 
Sorry, I feel I hijacked the purpose of this thread, so I deleted it.

Again, great job of putting your name out there Bob. I'm sure it will pay off.
 
Bob is a great guy and I am psyched that he is featured.



I am a hobbyist detailer and have bought products from AG and Danase, I haven't had a bad experience with AG, but I had a great experience when ordering from Danase.



Now granted I don't order alot and my orders small, but when the wrong product shipped, Bob personal ensured that the right product was shipped out promptly..... and honest mistake, but his customer service and his desire to make his customers happy was above and beyond.



Next time I need something, you know who I will be ordering from....
