SPECIALS and NEW ITEMS!
SPOT GLOBAL MESSAGING SYSTEM

SPOT - GlobalStar Is the world's first affordable way to have global messaging. The SPOT unit is the size of a Hand Held Radio and provides messaging and emergency locating capability where VHF Radios and Cell Phones do not operate.
SPOT has three functions: Check-In, Track and Emergency Alert.
Check-In: In the event of a non-life threatening emergency, you can use this function to notify your SPOTteam – the friends and family you have chosen as your contacts – that you need assistance or that you have arrived safely at your destination.
Tracking Progress - Also known as SPOTcastingSM, this feature allows friends and family to follow your progress in real time using your password, or to save waypoints so you can review your entire route at a later date.
Emergency Alert - Use this function in the event of a life threatening or other critical emergency to notify emergency services of your location and that you need assistance. The GEOS International Emergency Response Center alerts the appropriate agencies worldwide – for example contacting 9-1-1 responders in North America and 1-1-2 responders in Europe.
SPOT Units (Hardware) and SPOT Services are sold separately. Service requires end user registration and activation.
Annual services range in price from $99.00 to $159.00 and are only available from GlobalStar - SPOT LLC.

CYCLO MODEL 5/DUAL HEAD POLISHER
The Cyclo Orbital Polisher is designed to simulate hand polishing.
VIDEO:  Swirl Free Finish on Black Paint

VIDEO: Headlight Restoration

The Cyclo Orbital Polisher has been polishing planes, automobiles, and RVs since 1953, when they received patents on their orbital polishing mechanisms. That same year, the company received approval from the US government to polish the military’s aircraft and missiles. The Cyclo Polisher is still used today to polish the Air Force One fleet. With a resume like that, we just had to see what the Cyclo is all about. The Cyclo Polisher is the only dual-head polisher on the market. Both heads move in an orbital motion, counter-clockwise. The idea is to simulate hand polishing but at a much faster rate. Going over a scratch or swirl with both heads ensures that you are attacking it from all sides, so to speak. No matter what angle you look at the paint, you will not see the former blemish. It’s the fool-proof polisher! see page 44 for more!

$315.95!


Wx/Block and Wx/Seal are specially formulated to protect Sailplane Finishes. The surface protection contains maximum levels of UV inhibition, along with gloss enhancing and anti-static surfacing agents SPECIALLY designed for gel coat finishes. Wx/Block was designed to help maintain a high level of gel coat integrity by reducing the effects of environmental exposure. Wx/Block is completely safe for all gel coats, polyester based finished (Prestec or Duratec) or urethane paint finishes.
The Wx/Block block system is extremely easy to apply, just wipe on and hand buff for an outstanding gloss finish. Wx/Block is also perfect for daily clean-up and bug removal.


Wx/Block and Wx/Seal is an easy to use 2 part system. First, Wx/Seal is applied as a surface sealing and  cleaning compound, which conditions the surface. All Gel coats contain microscopic porosity. The Wx/Seal cleans residual dirt and wax from the surface and seals these porosity's actually helping the Wx/Block adhere to the surface. Wx/Seal may be applied by hand or if you prefer by machine. Finally, Wx/Block is applied by hand which contains the UV Blocking and Anti-Static agents which help to protect the finish. These agents also produce lower surface tension than standard waxes and reduce the severity of bug sticks and dust accumulation.
