I have been involved with cars all my life. Well at least since I could reach the pedals to drive. Seems all of my earlier cars were worn out when I got them. But that only set me up to do what I did best - fix things.

I remember the '64 Nova Super Sport that came chugging and burning oil into my life with little apparent life left in it. The fuzzy dice hanging from the mirror were white and black, but the fuzzy stuff across the dash board was turquoise and Randy Cathcart had glued it on real good. It took us a week to get all of that off, but the vinyl underneath wasn't cracked so it was worth the effort.

Back to the worn out parts. The smell of burning oil seeped into the passenger compartment at slow speed until we had it rebuilt and then the difference was night and day. From slug to a power machine. We raised the rear end up, wide tires and the works, but that was a long time ago and is just the base of what is amazing me now.

About 4 months ago a friend of mine told me about this product called XADO. Seems he was putting it into worn car engines and having great success. After a bit of skepticism, I ended up trying it and found out it really did work. What did it do? It imbedded a new cermet (ceramic and metal combination) surface into the working surfaces of my engine without any work at all. Think of what tungsten carbide did for the drill bit, saw blade and machine tool industry. It is baked in at high heat to be a harder, longer lasting low fricion surface better than the original.

"Well, how are we going to sell this stuff?", he asked me. "No one believes our story that the engine is repaired back to factory spec with a better surface than the engine maker can provide."

I checked him out. He and the product are legit. All I keep saying is, "Hey this stuff really works. How come nobody knows about it?"

GM, Daimler Chrysler, Volvo and Volkswagen all have approved XADO treated oils for use in their new engines. The stuff has sold more than $3 billion world wide and there has never been a claim of damage caused to a motor, gear box, transmission or hydraulic pump it has been used in.

This must sound like a sales job, but it is really a request for ideas. How are we going to get this into the mainstream? Everyone thinks we are "snake oil" salesmen trying to pull the next con job. They are too afraid to try it, but let me tell you this is really great stuff.

Oh, yeah, about that title. I stopped everything I was doing and joined the company. My life has changed. I was playing tennis and now it is, "XADO anyone?"

Any ideas out there?
