Really familiar brand names?

Reading the post about hook & loop fasteners and the references to a few other popular brand names made me curious as to how many we could come up with.
A few to start, including some from that thread.

Velcro for hook & loop fastener
Crescent wrench for any adjustable wrench
Channel Lock for slip joint pliers
Frigidaire for a refrigerator

There has to be a bunch more, but I'm drawing a complete blank right now.

Another one might be Armor All ... that get's thrown around a lot for interior and exterior dressings.

Xerox for making copies.
 
Just to consolidate a few.

Velcro for hook & loop fastener
Crescent wrench for any adjustable wrench
Channel Lock for slip joint pliers
Frigidaire for a refrigerator
Vise Grip pliers
Band Aid Bandages
Kleenex for bathroom tissues
Vaseline petroleum jelly
Prestone anti-freeze
WD-40 for spray lubricant
Q-Tips for cotton swabs
Coke for Colas
 
Chapstick for any lip moisturizer.

(I remember when Kelvinator was the word synonymous with refrigerator. It came in Kelvinator white only.)

Funny, 'cause I was thinking the same thing yesterday when I read that thread. Aside from the ones already mentioned the only one that comes to mind is Jello.
