             On The Road Again, Going to Places I Have Never Been.....
Jan 2008



 
 
We had about six weeks at our home in Surprise, AZ  recently so It was nice to have some roots for awhile, get some golf in and spend time with friends. We went to Fairmount, BC to spend Christmas with the kids and grandkids.  We had a great time with the families.  It was a little scary getting up on skis again after all these years.  We didn't break or bend anything so that was a bonus.  I got it all figured out about those ski hills.  They put a bar and a fireplace at the bottom of the hill as a reward!  When you get down the hill you get your reward. 

We hope your holiday season was one full of family, fun and great blessings.  But now it is time, as the song says, to get "On the road again".  We are back heading down the road looking forward to places we have never been, seeing faces we have never seen and recognizing many that have come our way before.  We look forward to seeing you somewhere down the road again.  Happy and safe travels.

NEW PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT! Bugs 'r Off

Bugs 'r Off
This month we are introducing a product that we have been thinking of and working on for the last few years.  I have found it very frustrating when you try to get bugs off the windshield, mirrors and 
front of the rig.   The windshield used to drive me bonkers!  It seemed I would have to wash it 2 or 3 times to try and get it clean and then there were still bug streaks after I had finished.  The only way I could do a good job was to get out my ladder, which wasn't always convenient, like on the side of the road or at Flying J.  If it was hot, and I was looking up into the sun, I found it very difficult to do a proper job.  Sometimes, after I thought I had done a great job on the windshield, and headed down the road again, I would find a mess in front of my eyes, particularly when driving into the sun.  Have you experienced similar frustrations?

I tried various products with mixed results and then started working on our own formulation with a chemist I met.  The results have been very gratifying.  I like the product so much that I thought you would too.  We are introducing Bugs 'r Off in January 2008.

The 16 oz pre-mix bottle comes complete with a sprayer and is ready to use.  The 8 oz concentrate makes an additional four 16 oz bottles.  You can buy it individually or as a package.  Buying the two together provides the best bang for the buck.  I am sure you will find that this is the best bug wash you have ever used!

When working on the windshield, I find it best to work on one side at a time.  If I spray both sides of the windshield, I usually find that the other side has dried on before I get there.   Spray Bugs 'r Off on and let sit for about 45-60 seconds before wiping off with a wet sponge, cloth or squeegee.  If the bugs are fresh that is probably all you will have to do.  If they have baked on, you might have to reapply the spray to melt down the bugs.  If the windshield is hot, spray some water on it to cool it off  before applying the  Bugs  'r  Off.  This will stop it from drying up before it has had a chance to get the job done.

It also works pretty well in the windshield washer reservoir.  It doesn't get a chance to soak in so it's not as effective as when you are parked and can use it in the usual way.  However, it's much better than just bug smear.  It does help with your vision and thus safety.

You will find it works great on your mirrors, chrome and the front of the rig as well.  You can also use it on the inside of the windshield to clear up that annoying haze.   For even better results use our Microfiber.  It is without a doubt Shower Headthe BEST Microfiber on the market bar none!  There are three different cloths in the package, two of which I use on the outside of the rig.  The scrubber and glass cloths.  The scrubber cloth is great to wipe the RV with after your first swipe with your squeegee or in those had to get at spots.  The glass cloth is used for finishing up the windshield, mirrors and chrome.  You will be truly amazed at how well it works in finishing the windshield, mirrors or chrome.  Bugs 'r Off and the glass cloth also work great on the film that builds up on the inside of the windshield.

For those of you who who haven't tried out our Microfiber, this is a great time to do so.  It is like a miracle cloth.  The third cloth is the dust cloth.  It sucks up the dirt and encapsulates it into the cloth.  It doesn't recycle the dust around the rig.  I particularly like it on the dash of the rig and car and around the dials and gauges.  One wipe and the dust is gone.  Women love these cloths inside.  They make cleaning so much quicker, easier and more effective.

The scrubber does a great job doing anything where you need a scrubber.  In the kitchen sink, washing the rig or the kitchen floor and anything that needs to be cleaned.  Judy absolutely loves the glass cloth for doing windows and mirrors in the rig as she says it saves her so much time and the job is done right the first time.  No looking at different angles for streaks.  This cloth doesn't just gloss over the film that builds up, it actually removes it.  Mirrors & windows stay cleaner longer.

Most people buy multiple packages for the house and the rig.  One for 'his' jobs outside and one for 'hers' inside and another for the house.  There is nothing out there in the market that even comes close to the quality of these particular cloths.  Try them.  I know you'll love them.
 
Now is the time to order Bugs 'r Off so you have it when you need it.  While you are at it you may as well order some Microfiber.  If you wait until bug season you will probably be down the road somewhere without it.  You will then have to get it shipped to you somewhere which is never convenient.
Highways Magazine Features Flag Pole Holder

Shower HeadThe December issue of Highways Magazine featured our Flag Pole Holder.  The Flag Pole Holder is the only adjustable holder in the market.  It can hold up to a 2" pole at the base and 1 1/2" pole further up.  It is a two piece mount that has a cup at the base and an adjustable mount with a gate that allows you to use a small flag pole or one that is up to 1 1/2".  In the  picture you can see how the gate opens and locks securely.  There is an adjustable rubber tipped bolt that adjusts to Shower Headfit different size flagpoles.  The holder is made of Lexan and stainless steel. It is virtually indestructible.   My pole is 22' high and will handle two flags and even in windy conditions it is so easy to put up or take down.  One of the great things, besides the ease of putting your flag up, is there is no noise, squeaking bungies or rattling at night to keep you awake. 
"Frustration Free RVing CD"
The response to the CD we introduced last month has been really great so I thought I'd run it again this month for those of you who didn't have a chance to read about it.
 
We have been doing RV seminars for years all over the country.  More than 25,000 people have CD Case & CDattended these seminars and many more have come up and said they were sorry they had missed it as they had heard such great things about it.  "Do you have any information we can get?" is often the question asked.  Many seminar attendees asked the same question as they said they couldn't possibly remember everything that was talked about in the seminar.  As a result we have put together a CD that you can view on your computer that has more than 100 stress reducing RVing ideas.  There are also a lot of video segments on the CD that further explain and demonstrate the solutions to challenges you may encounter.  The CD is more than 70 minutes in length. There is a lot of valuable information packed onto this CD.  This is also a great gift idea for some of your RVing friends as well as yourself.  The CD is normally priced at $12.95 but will be on sale at an introductory price of $9.95. 

For those of you who bought the CD in December, please write in and let us know what your thoughts were.  We will be updating the CD from time to time to improve it and keep it current.  Please email me at kwilton@coilnwrap.com
Thank you for taking time to read our newsletter.  We hope you find it helpful & informative.  It is our goal to make your RV lifestyle safer, easier and less frustrating.
 
Sincerely,
 

Ken & Judy Wilton
