I am the owner of formula113 and would like to offer free samples of carwax and detail spray. They are 2 ounce bottles and is more then enough to do an entire car. We have been selling these products for more then 7 years.


We are offering free samples of formula113 and the beadx detailer for a limited time.
You can find out more about these products over at the
www.camaroz28.com

Or you can go to my website click on my home page link.

 

What is your webpage?

 

I see no problem so the post stays. This is a detailing product and detailing is the purpose of this board. Let?s keep the less than positive comments to ourselves.

 

.... Anyway, aside from all that garbage.

What does one have to do to receive sample's of this stuff?

 

Yea i would hate to see that day too. But the fact of the matter is that he my have a better product then mequiers or zaino bros and we will never know if he doesn't advertise and that is the only way you will get your own business to be profitable is by advertising wherever you can and to who ever your best market is!!

 

Please go to WWW.FORMULA113.COM

Its not just about ,making money naturally I will take all I can get. Its about showing you guys a great product .


All you guys have to do is e mail your address to me at
speedywax@aol.com
Make sure you include your Phone # for my records, No I don't sell mailing lists.

Enjoy the samples, I will tell you guys more about the product afer I receive a number requests for samples

 

YOU'VE GOT MAIL

 

I love giving out samples, look at what happend when I sent them to Jay Leno. All I did was send a starter kit to the show.
About 3 weeks later I get a phone call, I look at the caller ID and I see it is a 310 area code, thats California.

Hello advanced car care, can I help you?(leno) can I speak to Michael(me) Speaking, who's this( Leno) Jay Leno(me) GET5 THE F*CK OUT OF HERE!!! WHO'S THIS??!!!!!.(Leno) WAIT A MINUTE, DIDN'T YOU SEND ME THAT PURPLE STUFF, BEADX, FORMULA113.
(me) OH SHEET!! IT IS JAY LENO, I THOUGHT YOU WERE ONE OF MY FRIENDS BREAKING MY *****!! I had him rolling on the phone.

He said to me that he receives 10,000 pieces of mail a week then I get the good stuff like the yours. My guys were using maguires on my collection,THEY ARE DONE WITH THAT.

We talked for about 20 minutes and I told him I was going to SEMA in Vegas, He said well when your done come to Burbank, I have some back stage passes. The rest is history.


I went, naturally. It was much fun, being with Leno, He called me down out of the crowd before they starting filming.


Since then I met many actors, you know most of them are nuts about there cars like us.

YOU NEVER KNOW WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN WHEN YOU SEND OUT SAMPLES.


To guy who bashed me about the free advertising, do you really think its free, every sample pack I send out has to be paid for by me. If a 100 people resond here guess what, I have to pay between 3 and 5 bucks per sample pack, plus the cost of the bottles and sprayers, and the shipping envelope etc...

FREE NO, EXPENSIVE YES.

I take the time to do this because I am damm sure I have one of the best wax and detailers on the market, and maybe the best period.

My customers have made me this way because of the way they rant and rave to me about how great the 113 and beadx are, and I am taking about collector car owners.

Yes I am in it for the money, but what other company is offering samples?

I am small company, I will shell out the cost of my latest(FREE ADVERTISING) I don't do print ads because they suck, what I do is better, I put it in your hands. More cost effective.

Last time I decided to do this it coat me over $2500 in shipping and product cost, SO MUCH FOR FREE.

yo got more mail

 

I kinda hope its not better than Zaino, cause I haven't even used any of my Zaino yet!

But I'll take a sample, you've got mail

 

Cant wait for my sample pack to come in.

 

Well, I'm an avid Meguiar's fan, but a free sample, I'll try it out, and see how it works. Any idea on how long it will take to get here?

 

I've got a good size fleet to use for testing. Send some......
Thank You in advance!!!

And YES that is good advertising if you have a good product to offer.
The Classified Board is for SELLING right, not FREE samples!

 

woohoo more mail for ya!

 

Mail...thats whut you got from me

 

I have received everyones request for samples. I am off to a car show in MD, called the big M. When I come home Sunday Night I will start to process all the e mail's.

Some will receive the samples right away and others may take a while, depending on were you are. The 113 is a 2 ounce bottle and so is the beadx. If your car is BLACK YOU WILL BE BACK, I promise.( THATS A GOOD ONE HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT ONE)

If your paint is weathered or custom, the 113 works miracles.
It works on everything. Zaino is a very different product then mine, the z is for paint that is in mint condition or good condition. and after all the layers zaino will last longer then the 113, but one coat of formula113 will KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF.

Use the BeadX like any other detailer, BUT! you can apply it in the sun and to a wet car before drying. Also is like rainx on glass with out the mess and wiper marks or chatter from the blade.

Here is a post from a old customer that did a comparison between the f113 and the z.

Ok I am through with 2 coats of z-5 and one z-2. I like the shine but I do think that the shine on the 113 is better BUT!!! I think there is a big difference on shine and a mirror effect. The zaino definately has a mirror effect on the paint. I can see myself much sharper and clearer in the paint than with anything else I have used including the 113. The zaino also beads water like nothing esle i have seen before. Here is my initial rating for all of the things that I can think of to compare between 113 and zaino!!! The reason i compare these two is because they are the best that I have found!!!!.everything is rated 1-10 and I am rating 2 coats of z-5 and one coat of z-2 with z-6 wipe inbetween each coat compared to one coat of f113 and beadx wipe afterward.
ZAINO F--113
Shine 6-- 10
Depth 9-- 9
Swirl/scratch cover 5-- 9
Mirror effect 10-- 5
Longevity 9-- 4
Price 3-- 7
Work/Time involved 2-- 9
Feel of paint 9-- 7
Water Bead 10-- 6
visible residue 9-- 10
---------------------z----113-----------------
TOTAL SCORES 72-- 76

QUICK DETAILER SHOOTOUT RESULTS

(void of product-specific comments and specific category scores)

TEST VEHICLES

Each quick detailer product was tested on two vehicles of different color and with slightly different surface car regimens:

2000 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab SE V6, Super Black. Regular surface care regimen includes 3M IHG, Klasse sealant and Blitz One Grand.

1999 Nissan Maxima SE, Lakeshore Blue. Regular surface care regimen includes M #7, #20, #26.


TEST METHOD

All products were applied in a covered garage under fluorescent and halogen lights. Each product applied on days when temperature was between 60-75 F. Relative humidity on test days ranged between 52% and 73%. Products were applied to the surface of each vehicle using the bottles in which the products arrived or were purchased. Spreading/removing/buffing of the product was accomplished using Miracle Towels.

Products were scored using the following criteria:

1. Cleaning properties: ability to remove "fresh" surface contaminants, such as water spots, bird droppings, bugs, sap, etc. 10 points possible.

2. Ease of use: products received a higher score if they did not smear, require significant buffing or otherwise leave a filmy haze. 10 points possible.

3. Shine: each product was evaluated on its ability to augment the reflectivity and depth of color of the painted surface. 10 points possible.

4. Longevity: this test was omitted as it seemed to prove irrelevant. Each car is washed on average once a week and quick detailed twice a week. Difficult to prove or disprove a products longevity. One note however, carnauba based detailers do seem to prolong the durability of a carnauba top layer of wax. Various bonus points available, 3 points max.

5. Glass test: this test was discontinued as most detailers created a terrible mess on glass that required significant work to remove and clean up. Only one product faired well on glass and receives bonus points for its performance in this category. Up to 2 bonus points available, awarded only to one product.

( BEADX WON THAT ONE FOR GLASS)
6. Value: various points awarded based on performance relative to price. Up to 2 bonus points available and awarded to select products.


ABBREVIATED RESULTS

(Category scores and product specific comments forthcoming). Additional thoughts regarding carnaubas vs. synthetics also forthcoming.

Pinnacle Crystal Mist 30 pts.
Eimann Fabrik Clear Pearl 29 pts.
BeadX 29 pts.
Zaino 25 pts.
Erazer 24 pts.
One Grand Show-Off 23 pts.
Wizards Mist 22 pts.
3M Gloss Enhancer 21 pts.
Eagle One Wipe 'N Shine 21 pts.
Liquitech Finish Fast 20 pts.
Meguiars Quick Detailer 20 pts.
Meguiars Final Inspection 20 pts.
American Shine Color Brite 11 pts.

Although I've been a "member" of this forum since November '99, you can see from my posts that I usually don't put in my $.02. This forum has provided me with a wealth of knowledge and I usually log on atleast 4-5 times a week. Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoy this site and would pay the fee for membership (if there was one). For all it's valuable information and insight with corvettes, a negative side I see all to often is the bashing that is given to many members and vendors when they state their opinions that "go against the grain." Case in point, M. Prisco. Let's see; is there abrasives, or isn't there any, what is the true organic composition, this guy's a liar, yada yada yada. To all those that bashed this guy, did anyone try his product??????? Well let me tell you, I just did! I requested a "sample" and this guy sends me a WHOLE KIT (12oz wax, 22oz spray and even a cotton applicator)!!! I'm probably the most **** person when it comes to "attention to detail" and car care (e.g. I clean the wheel wells, the inner section of the wheels, the engine compartment, use a Q Tip on all the external crevices, won't drive in the rain or even if there is a remote chance, detail and I mean detail the car every week...get the picture)? My C5 is white and brand new (2K miles). I use Zaino, love it, and the car looks great! However, I should mention that the car looked great from the factory even before the Zaino but obviously, the Zaino helps. I didn't want to go through Dawn etc. on the vette since I figured I wouldn't be able to see much of a difference and white is so forgiving anyway. I wanted to give it a real test so I decided to use this stuff on my 1996 Black Jeep Cherokee. Anyway, one word....AWESOME!!! I used Dawn detergent, clayed the whole car, used the Formula 113 and then went over the car with the BeadX. Easy and I need to say it again, AWESOME. Can I say better than Zaino? Well, I never used the Zaino on the Jeep (I didn't want to put in all the effort and steps). I only did the Jeep because the stuff was free and I figured that if this guy Mike goes to all the trouble, atleast I can give it a honest shot. Bottom line, let's give these guys a chance!! Mike has a great product. Will I use it on my vette.......you bet! Do I care if this changes anyone's mind.....NO! This was a win-win situation for me. Free AND great product!!! How often does that happen in today's world? Anyway, thanks Mike and goodluck!

After using the Zaino I must admit that I did not think that there was anything else on the market that could compete with it. Well I must say that I really don't think that this is the case any longer. I was first introduced to Zaino by a very close friend of mine,Leonard Plaitano. I did not take his word on how well the product was until hearing so many good things about it on the C.forum along with seeing some of the endless results. Now I am the type of guy that have to see it to believe it. A couple of days ago my friend Leonard calls me and tells me to stop by his house, he has something to show me. Well when I arrived at his home he proceeds to meet me as I get out of my car and says how do you like my jeep? Well, I told him that I did not want to make him angry,but because I am a true friend of his I must keep it real. I told him that his jeep looks better than his vette. That's a old jeep too,compared to a 2000 vette that sits in the garage the majoity of the time.
If you are out there M. Prisco I would greatly appreciate if I could try a sample of your new product because Leonard would not share with me. Take care.



REMEMBER TO BE PATIENT, THE SAMPLES WILL COME ASAP, They will shipped next week around the middle of the week.



I will also be in York for the NSRA show next week end.


Almost forgot. THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME OFFER THE SAMPLES ON THIS FORUM. To the moderators, I would like advertise on the forum, or sponsor. Please let me know the rates.

I will be posting some directions or tips after I send out the samples.

1 more thing, We are always looking for dealers, there is no charges to be one. Many of my customers have become dealers, if you go to many cruise nights or car shows you can keep it in the trunk. Most of my steady or repeat customers tell me everyone wants to know what they are using.


Anyway have to roll, I will be in Churchville, MD for the BIGM car show. If anyone is close, you can get the samples from me at the show, and a demonstration.

I am taking my lap top, so I should be online tonight.

Thanks for your responce to my offer and I am sure there will be more by Monday.

 

Definitely got my attention! You also got mail from me

 

You've got mail.

 

Ya got nuther email.

 

You have definately got the right idea on advertising. I look at adds all the time and even though they say their products are the best (!!!everyone says that!!!) I still have to try the product before I believe an add. You are doing the right thing and is more cost effetive as you stated..I think you are on the road to a great following on your product.

You are a class act for doing what you are doing.

As to anyone that wants to bash get over yourself.

o and by the way you have mail

 

I've got a great test subject for F113. my 86's dull paint. we'll see what it can really do. i hope it can work wonders . you got mail.

 

Youve got mail!

I will be testing it up against zaino. My best freind swears by it on his 97 ss, whilst I lean more towards Gold class, since I do not have access to a garage to let the zaino sit over nite.

 

Dont listen to the bashers. I think that you are doing US a service by offering a product to try for free. Cant beat that with a stick! Thomas

P.S.......You got some more mail.

 

The request for free samples are being processed, they will be shipped via UPS. Please be patient they will come asap.

Thanks for your interest in the formula113 products.

regards
Michael
www.formula113.com

 

Many people who ordered the samples should receive them this week.

Thanks
Michael

 

SWEET. Wax on, wax off. I used Zanio 2 and 3 awhile back lets see how your stuff goes. Cant wait to try it.

 

I don't post to much here anymore because of the annoying 2-5 times to log in before i can post. But you got mail and a Custom Paint job that needs some polish. This will be the first coat. I also have my 88 that hasn't been washed since November I will use some on the hood to see if it orks, it is the original black from the factory, no rust but many swirl marks and a couple of light scratches. You sound like you have a awesome product and i hope it works on clear coats and custom paint. I haven't used Zaino but have used Mcguiers a couple of times on my 88 and it worked pretty good. you got mail. if this product is as good as everyone says it is I know about 12 people that will order from you all with new cars and nice paint that needs to look better

 

The formula113 is safe for all finishes. That black paint will POP when you are done applying the formula113.

Hope you have a good pair of sunglasses, your going to need them

 

I am also interested in seeing if this does what you say it will.

You have another email.

 

Does this work good for older paint jobs as well? I know zaino dioesnt work as good on older paint from experiance. By older I mean older then 5 yrs......

 

Can you and will you send it to Canada?If so,thanx

 

I would be interested to see how well it worked on my black paint that is swirl mark heaven. Will be sending you an email shortly. To bad you wont be at the June show in Carlisle

 

You've got mail... again!

 

You've got mail!

 

you've got one more email! thanks a lot!

:hail: :hail: :hail:

 

Michael Prisco is not telling any BS here. i have used this stuff for about less than a year. it is so awsome. it is just as good as zaino, if not better. i highly recomend this to all. i use the detalling spray w/ the clay bar and then some wax. i love this stuff. it give my car a glass like finish. it works awsome. it got all the swirl mark out from when i hand compounded my car. i really recomend to everyone. i used it on my dads truck. his paint is old and was really oxidized. after i was done it looked brand new (im not joking. it looked so good). i also did the same to my moms van. i really suggest you give this product a chance. i highly dought you'll be disappionted.

 

i can't wait for this sample to come in teh mail, but have some of those samples shipped yet? sorry for being impatient i'm just anxious to try it out

 

heavy chevy, that was a very nice thing to say. It made my day.

Thanks

 

are you still sending them out? if so , when's your next shipment going to be sent? thanks a lot for eveyrhting!

 

no problem man. i really think you have a great product.

 

UPS just dropped mine off today, Thanks Mike,

I'll post my results as soon as I use it.
Real soon hopefully.

 

YOU GOT EVEN MORE MAIL

 

you've got more mail

 

add another one to that ....

 

I used my sample today with good results, see my post about it.

 

sounds like a promising product, i'll be waiting for mine....

 

I got mine yesterday. I used the bead x. My only question was are you supposed to wipe it in or just let it soak in? The directions never said... It hasn't rained yet so I'll let you know how it goes when it rains. Thanks again for the sample!

 

You should spray a section at a time and then wipe in with a terry cloth towel. Don,t forget to apply the beadx to your windows, beadx is second to none on glass. You can also apply the beadx to a wet car before drying.

To all the other people who ordered samples, they will come it may take a week or 2 but they will come. We are having a supply and demand problem right now, we are correcting the problem asap. So hang tough.

I wasn't around to see all the good post's, I was admitted to the hospital for a bad case of phemonia. I am home now and feeling CRAZY, NO CIGS FOR A WEEK. Have to quit for good, had the scare of my life.

To all the people who smoke out there, QUIT BEFORE ITS TO LATE.

There is chance for me to be able to breath normally if I quit now.
Or be on oxygen for the rest of my life. ITS NOT WORTH IT. QUIT.


Sorry for getting off the subject.

Had to tell you guys.

 

you have mail, and wondering if you'll ship north of the border

 

It ussually a pain in the assss to ship to Canada. I can ship but find out the best way to ship so you don't get hit with the hammer


They have done the wax test and have tested 46 brands. Ijust ordered my copy, wonder how the 113 did.
