No more seal n glide.
So I went and ordered a 100ml pack of seal n glide the other day. Got a reply back that holmenkol had discontinued producing their marine products
without explanation. He has 1000ml packs, but for $350 I'm not in need of the stuff that badly. I asked for a refund as he said he could. The next day
he came back that he had one last pack left, and was able to ship if I still wanted. Of course I took it, but I really wonder why production was
stopped. Anyway, I felt like it would be good to pass the info on, in case there was anyone or a group of people who wanted to get some, they may have
to act fast. With the large packs available one might be able to get a group to split the cost so everyone could get what they needed.

I find it very puzzling. I just ordered the stuff to do the speed 2 to help with the water absorbtion. Next I'm ordering an infinity 2.0 for it when
its fully available. Giving it the full treatment so its good for the winter season. I missed a ton of riding last winter due to work and -40
conditions. Got lots of riding to make up this winter. was gonna do the scorpion, but surprisingly enough its still pretty pristine and crunchy.

I just ordered some a little over a week ago and got this in an e-mail last Monday:
"Our vendor has notified us this order is expected to be
complete for shipping around 09/06. If this should arrive
earlier than the expected date we will ship immediately. If
the shipment should have any further delay we will notify
you as soon as possible.
Laurie "

The guys at foilzone have experimented with NikWax Tekwash, dilute urethane etc etc ... NikWax seemed the best bang for buck/time ...

Funny Shaggs, my Scorpion has spent most of its life in snow storms and white outs yet still crisp.. Got to like that.
Leg getting better slowly, guess I'll have to borrow Rev's buggy...lol
