    There's nothing wrong with Taiwanese product and I'm not suggesting there's anything wrong with Sulco Tools. It's the bullshit I take exception too.

    By the way, are you cunts still peddling baby's arse wiping towels?.

    Anyhow, put me on your ignore list if you like. They say ignorance is bliss after all.

    Genius is a Canadian company.. manufactures 90% of their tools in North America (stamped in the tool and packaging).. T&E has Made In the U.S.A. on most of theirs.. (although alot are manufactured in Taiwan.. granted.. still great tools though)..

    Even Snap-On has manufacturing of their Blue Point line offshore in Taiwan and China

    yes we are peddling ass wiping towels .. one of our biggest product lines .. we also do Pipeline and infrastructure tooling, Power Products, Hyundai Gen-sets, power tools, air compressors and even agricultural tractors ..

    diversification mate ..my boss aint stupid

    keep a lookout on your local grocery shelves for an ADULT ass wiping towel too.. i'll even shout ya a pack when we get them in for that attitude of yours

    i will PERSONALLY stand behind anything i sell.. i dont stock on my truck what i wouldnt use myself.. cant get a better warranty than that .. and if its shit i will say so and have done on many occasions

    yes Genius has a better profit margin than Koken for me .. but i'd rather sell a mechanic an equal tool at a better price so he can afford to feed his family than to sell something because of brand recognition or marketing ..

    say a Koken socket set retails for $400.. same set of Genius can go for 1/2 that and be equal quality.. i sell a tool and make my money .. the mechanic gets a good price ..

    win/win..


    he will buy more because he knows i dont bullshit to try and sell something i doint believe in ... i was that way when i sold bikes and im that way now ..


    ask around bro.. alot of KB'rs have been customers of mine and i dare you to find one thats felt cheated or scammed

    Where's any mention of this North American Manufacture in the Genius Website?. They must be doing well to be able to undersell the Japanese, G.M & Chrysler could learn a thing or two?.

    Always have, at least they clearly differentiate with another brand name. The Danaher Group (U.S) has been producing Blue Point for years, as with Ingersoll-Rand. Some of the older airtool parts can be scarce.

    Providing we can arrange a safe drop-point, you have no idea how useful that could be sometimes.

    And for that reason alone, I wouldn't hesitate to buy Genius branded tools from you.

    Unfortunately I can't be arsed to go to the trouble of providing you with proof.

    I'll continue to consider it bullshit, until I am proved wrong.

    Can you maybe see how that statement is just as silly as somebody claiming that Hyosung have a licence to manufacture Yamaha, in the U.S.

    It's not rocket science.

    Can't help with the brake fluid, sorry. Try baking soda, works for all sorts of other shit.

    Dunno 'bout that. Autosol (Hobeca) do a plastic cleaner too, might be more abrasive than a headlight cleaner?.

    I was thinking that the use of the word abrasive probably wasn't appropriate. Was just a thought, as 3M stuff is generally quite expensive.

    Anyway, you must have some panel shops that would supply some samples?.
