| 8 November 2006 Hello Tony, It was good to meet you last week in Dubai and I am looking foreword to seeing you in Singapore in a few weeks. I have looked over our records for the information about our polishing of our leading edges. And this is what I came up with. Your product (Xzilon) that we have been using for the past 2 years has made a big difference in the way our fleet of aircraft looks and the number of times we buff our leading edges with polishers. For example on our 747-200 (cargo), all the lip skins and leading edges are polished (This is like this on all our aircraft). Before we were polishing them 4 to 5 times a year with buffers and now 2 times a year. Before we would get light surface corrosion all the time but now we do not see any. I take care of many aircraft for the Royal Family of Dubai and they must be kept up to the Highest Standards at all times. Your product, Xzilon on our leading edges has help me do that with a lot less labour, time and material. I am looking foreword to applying your product Xzilon, to one of our 747-400, On the exterior paint in Singapore. Thank you, Michael E. Luney |
| November 6, 2006 Mr. Alan Deering Naples, Florida- We have 2 Bombardier Global Express customers who received the Xzilon treatment on their brightwork about three months ago. These customers typically fly to New York and Bermuda, and there has historically been a problem with corrosion on the inlets, as well as water spots on all the brightwork. Since the Xzilon applications, the corrosion has been non-existent, and the brightwork all looks amazing! The customers are extremely happy and impressed. We also recently worked on two Dassault Falcon jets here, and both operators say it's the best their brightwork has ever looked and held up. Cincinnati, Ohio- We performed the Xzilon treatment on the brightwork of a Citation Bravo customer, and a Falcon 50 customer. Both customers have seen a tremendous increase in the amount of time between brightwork polishing, and are ecstatic with the results. Greensboro, North Carolina- We have a customer who owns a Falcon 20, as well as a completely polished aluminum sport plane. Both are polished by us, and treated with Xzilon. Again, the customer has been amazed at the clarity of the brightwork, even after months of heavy flying have passed. Dallas, TX- We performed a paint prep and brightwork polishing on a Gulfstream IV that is owned by a very high profile individual in American politics. We then applied Xzilon to the whole aircraft. This job was done in May, and the maintenance manager for the aircraft says it's the best the plane has ever help up, aesthetically speaking. Teterboro, New Jersey- We perform detailing services for Bombardier Flexjet in Teterboro, the busiest GA airport in the world. We typically clean about 40 Bombardier business jets (Challengers and Learjets) a week here. About six months ago, we started using XC-11 as our main dry wash for the paint, windows, and brightwork. The condition of the planes have improved considerably according to maintenance technicians and pilots. Our employees love it because of the ease of use, and results it gives them every time. I could go on and on, but I think you get the point. We operate cleaning services in 13 states, as well as a traveling crew to handle jobs anywhere. Over the past year, we have been switching over to the Granitize products on a system-wide basis because of the results we have seen. There are a million products out there, all claiming to do a lot of things, but Granitize is truly backing up the talk with actual, visible, measurable results. Sincerely, 888.858.5123 |
| January 12, 2005 Sarah Turner and I met in Ionia in 1976. We both flew for Jerry Benz at Benz Aviation instructing, towing gliders and banners. After 28 years and 23,000 hours combined corporate flying, Sarah and I decided to take a chance and fly together in our first "family plane" - a 1966 Twin Comanche. After an extensive annual at Northern Air, we are beginning the process of making improvements as $ will allow to enhance our little project's speed. After years of being use to 450 knots, now 150 knots requires a new mindset. Before springing for any of the pricier modifications available, Dale Forton at Aeroworks, suggested trying a cleaning and sealing system that he offers. Sarah and I agreed that having an airplane sit for any long periods is not a good idea, so we now had an excuse to fly a "little mission" each time we'd make an attempt at a MPH enhancement. Our baseline flight was a triangle from Y70 (Ionia) to AMN (Alma) to 13C (Lakeview) and return to Ionia. On the first flight around our "speed triangle", we used rather a high power setting of 24" and 2500 RPM. The OAT was +2 degrees C., configuration clean, and aircraft was topped off with fuel and 2 pilots. Temperature and wind component will vary on subsequent flights, however the triangle flight should make the wind negligible. On the first flight the aircraft was dirty and had some exhaust/oil residue on the belly. We employed the autopilot to fly the straight and level portion and hand flew the turns to reduce any overshoot or undershoot. We made standard rate turns after the KLN 90 read "0" at the turnpoints. The result of our "dirty" baseline flight was 98.9 miles in 36 minutes 30 seconds, for a whopping 162.57 MPH (MPH makes us feel better). Sarah and I took a weekend to use the Granitize Aviation International system and found the products very easy to use. We cleaned the entire airplane, then used the clay bar and then wiped the ship down with alcohol and applied the Xzilon. The appearance and texture of our old paint job was dramatically improved after about 8 hours of work. Our next flight, using the same parameters, was cooler by 4 degrees (or -2 degrees C.). The resulting speed around the triangle was 168.9 MPH. We definitely give credit for this increase to the Granitize Aviation International system. Perhaps one could argue that older paint jobs and dirty aircraft would benefit the most from using this system with some good old-fashioned elbow grease. Whichever way you choose to look at it, it looks good and feels good. Onto the next mod, and test flight. Watch out Win-A-Twin. Jack Steen |
