PennGrade

School
was in session at the PennGrade Oil booth,
where the crowd was eager to learn about what makes a great
oil. By the way, those of you who were fans of Brad Penn
Oil should be happy to know that this is the same product,
just with a new look. PennGrade1 oil features
tenacious cling which is important for us bracket racers
whose motors might sit for a week or two. www.penngrade1.com.

The
Permatex booth featured Jay Blake's Alcohol funny car
which is now being driven by Phil Burkhart, Jr. The cool
new product was their Fast Orange Grease X mechanics'
laundry detergent.
According
to Permatex, " Professional mechanics and do-it-yourselfers
regularly complain about the difficulty of removing stains
and odors from their clothes. An additional problem they
face is the residue of grease that can be left in the
washing machine after washing heavily grease-stained clothes.
This grease residue can end up on clothes washed in the
next cycle. Fast Orange Grease X eliminates these problems
because it is designed to effectively clean clothing that
has been soiled by automotive grease, oil, tar, greasy
dirt, and automotive fluids. It features a built in pre-treater
that can remove up to 99 percent of automotive stains
and odors. In addition, its proprietary soil release/anti-static
agent actually helps repel future soils and keeps the
washing machine clear of residual grease."
I
was given a sample and will be trying this on my Dickies
coveralls which have taken in a good amount of trans fluid
over the years, and you know how stubborn those odors are.

We
all know Pit Pal Products; they offer hundreds
of innovative storage solutions to save time and space in
your garage, trailer or at the track. Some of their products
include holders for big red cups (always a necessary accessory
for after racing) and holders for safety items like first-aid
kits (which you might need after having too many big red
cups). But the coolest and most important product they had
at the show was the Guardian Angel Magnet Mount Lights.
These excellent safety lights can be worn on your clothing
by using the magnet mount, or can be mounted on a vehicle
or bike. The LED lights rate up to 930 lumens per LED and
can be seen up to 2 miles away. The unit also includes a
white LED work light. www.pitpalproducts.com.

Another
company we all know is POR-15, but you
might not know that POR stands for Paint Over Rust! I painted
the interior floor of the Dodge many years ago with POR-15
black paint and it sealed it forever. That's NHRA Division
1 racer Jason Anagnostis, POR-15's VP and General Manager,
and he was showing us the wide variety of POR-15 products
including Strip Gel, High Temp paints, Detail paints that
were used on that master cylinder to give each piece the
look of a different metal, and metal prep products. www.por15.com.
