IOSSO BIO-BASED METAL POLISH
Most metal polishes contain acids and strong chemicals that make using them unpleasant, which can mean you don’t do the job as often as you need to. Iosso’s Bio-Based Metal Polish makes the task easier by being gentle on the skin and easy on the environment. Bio-Based Metal Polish meets strict California Air Resources Board requirements and is a USDA-certified biobased product. While gentle, it’s extremely effective. It quickly removes oxidation, tarnish, water spots, and surface rust from all types of metal, including stainless steel, aluminum, bronze, brass, and copper, and is equally efficient on hard plastics, porcelains, tile, and painted surfaces. Heat bluing around chromed exhaust pipes is also quickly wiped away. The finished surface is left with a gleaming shine and a protective finish. Made in the USA, Bio-Based Metal Polish is simple to use. A dab of concentrated paste rubbed onto the surface with a soft cloth and then buffed by hand or machine provides a long-lasting shine. The polish comes in a one-pound container or a five-pound bucket.

SAMSON WARPSPEED 3 SD
Samson rope company recently released its new WarpSpeed 3 SD line, which brings SamsonDry hydrophobic technology to Samson’s recreational marine portfolio. WarpSpeed 3 SD builds on the popular WarpSpeed II double-braid rope, maintaining its flexibility and excellent handling while incorporating a hydrophobic coating. Unlike traditional sailing lines that can absorb up to 45% of their weight in water, the SamsonDry coating reduces this to less than 5%, meeting UIAA standards. This results in a lighter, quicker, and more manageable rope. Additionally, WarpSpeed 3 SD is spliceable and compatible with hardware, and exhibits an elastic elongation of just 1.1% at 10% of its breaking strength load. Available in 5/16”, 3/8”, 7/16”, ½,” and 9/16”, in beige with blue tracers and beige with red tracers.
