<HTML>"Doesn't smell" like etc, etc!!

Come on, any decent chemist can add a fragrance to most products, or a dye, and turn it to the marketing guys, which will then create a "hype" expectancy of the targeted user market.

We do it all the time, in our plant.

A "marketing" company comes to us and asks for a product, we pull up a formula, then they tell us what color, what fragance/smell they want to use and we make it.

The product is not one bit difference in actual performance values, just it has the "sensory" marketing values they want to use.

<HTML>Grumpy ...could the quick detailers have more active ingrediants than others...I have used some that seemed to be water downed in strength than the Super Source Activator...and will this have an effect on how much gloss is achieved...your thoughts on this as far as gloss enhancers and activators go!</HTML>

<HTML>The CAS#'s or MSDS should provide an indication of what they are using.

Many are little more than a percentage of dimetal silicone, emulsified into a water/alcohol mixture.

Some of the better ones use polydimethalsiloxane's in the mixture, lasts a bit longer.

<HTML>Some company's use IPA to reduce foaming of a product, others use it as a "cleaning" agent.

Want to see how good it is to clean a "non-clear" paint job that is oxidized?

Take a towel, wet it with IPA and hold it for a few seconds on a "non-clear" painted surface that is "oxidized", then wipe it and look at the cloth.

Most of the time, you will see the oxidized paint come off on the towel, not all of it, but enough to get my point.

A "Malco" none clear, that has a couple of years on it will show this easily.

<HTML>Sorry, Melissa,

I meant to type "Macco", cheap paint job.

Plus, now that I had to come back to the thread, IPA, is a "drying" agent, as well as a "solvent", so it has many purposes in a formulation.
