...We have secretly replaced the coffee in this 5-star restaurant with Film-Guard. Lets see what the customers think....

...I drained all the Century intermittents and Simplex oil sumps and filled them all up with Film-Guard! Now all the projectors have image steadiness that beats DLP projection!!

...Sprayed a little Film-Guard into the guts of the lone Eprad Starscope we still have and Voila! I bet this place passes THX cert with flying colors!

...Spiked the popping oil with Film-Guard, now we cant pop enough corn fast enough to meet demand!

...Slipped a little Film-Guard to the contractors building our newest project... and its now months ahead of schedule!!

Mr. Popeil, are you listening?

Ian,

I had a little fender-bender the other day. Just a few scratches and a minor dent. I figured I'd squirt a little FilmGuard on it... It didn't work. I think my car has that dealer add-on "Poly-Coat"... Sort of like Photo Guard for cars?

Film-Guard fixed my car, but unfortunatly it turned into a 1994 Dodge Caravan and put $6,000 on my credit card.

By the way, if any one has a Norge badge from an old refridgerator, I'd like to put it on my white, Dodge, Caravan.

Hey Ian,
We had a Norge when I was a kid. That thing never died(unlike the Caravan I owned in "87".....3 transmissions and two transaxles later I finally put it out of its misery. Took it out in a nearby field and pumped 6 rounds into its radiator!! You should do the same too yours!!
I can remember the family Norge clear as day and I bet if I could locate it I could spray a little filmguard on it and it would still look and run like new. Unfortunately that Norge badge is way way too good for your Caravan or any other.....sorry! And by the way,Filmguard is non compatable with any Chrysler product. By tommrrow morning the paint will fall off and your engine will emit clouds of smoke. Brad has not really found out why this happens yet.

(On a more practical note)

My theatre recently inherited two Kelmar film cleaners from an old theatre (that didn't use FilmGuard) that just closed. The take-up shafts were all full of crud and the rubber swell pieces were so dried and stiff that is was nearly impossible to rewind the cleaning media, so I took them apart and cleaned all the pieces with (you guessed it) FilmGuard. They now work like they are brand new.

Hey! Don't rag on Chrysler!

Gimme' a Macintosh and I'll put it in my Neon and throw a bottle of FilmGuard in the tank and I'll be good to go another 7 years and 70,000 miles!
