ResistAll

 On April 28 of 2021 we were in Atlanta at the office of Nalley Infiniti
In the sales person's office we noticed this...
ResistAll and some coffee spilled out!
ResistAll
Preserving the Beauty of Your Vehicle
WAIT a minute...!
Such a clever design and it sure caused some good laughs!

    Hello Mariette, I have seen fake spills before, but never cleverly added into the advertising of a product. As for Resist All itself, there are mixed reviews out there. In Ohio they put salt on the roads, which can rust out a car from the underneath, which is why people buying used cars prefer "guaranteed Southern" used cars. Many dealers in the North try to sell new car customers on additional undercoatings, again with mixed reviews and opinions. I have seen used cars in the Ohio that looked beautiful from the outside, but underneath they were so rusted that they were unsafe to drive. Another small benefit of living in the South!

      Dearest Jim,
      This was very cleverly done and it made both of us laugh.
      You are so right about the huge benefit of living in the South as we never ever have encountered the dreaded salt on the road here. We know it from The Netherlands though...
      Hugs,
      Mariette
