retract-a-bit.jpgReady Products Retract-a-Bit Screwdrivers and Ratchets

Ready Products has introduced the new Retract-A-Bit™ Hex Self-Storing Hex Head Screwdriver System with bits that can be changed with the push of a button. Because the bits are integral to the screwdriver, they can never be lost. Simply select the desired bit, and slide its button into place – a locking collar ensures its stability during use. To change bits, depress the collar, and retract the bit into the handle.

Compact and convenient, Retract-A-Bitâ„¢ Hex is available with six common metric or standard bit sizes. It is ideal for many uses, including home repairs or remodeling projects, around motor homes/RVs, motorcycles, service trucks, boats, or anywhere a hex head screwdriver might be required. Retract-A-Bitâ„¢ Hex is available in independent hardware stores nationwide, as well as through their website at www.ready-tools.com

Retract-a-Bitâ„¢ Hex is one of a full line of innovative, space-saving products available from Ready Products. For more information on the Retract-A-Bit contact Ready Products, Inc. at (866) 942-9230, or via email at [email protected].

boot_buddy.jpgBoot Buddy - Keep those tootsies warm!

This handy, portable rubber mat provides gentle heat to dry boots or warm feet and legs without all the dangers and high electrical costs associated with space heaters.

Dry shoes and boots
The mat protects your floor or carpet from muddy or wet shoes, and at the same time dries the shoes so they’re warm and comfortable later. Children, houseguests, gardeners, and rain-soaked homeowners will appreciate this handy dryer.

Aid Circulation
Heat promotes good blood circulation, which is important for everyone’s health, but vital for athletes, seniors and the infirm.

Warm up cold feet and legs
Avoid high electricity costs and dangers of space heaters in any home or work environment. Direct, gentle heat would be perfect in chilly basements, garages, porches, attics, or any other poorly-heated area of a home. Also ideal for parking or auto garages, farm buildings or barns, security or toll booths, warehouses, check-out counters, shipping desks or any unheated areas of a workplace.

Made of waterproof, sealed and insulated rubber, the Boot Buddy can be plugged into any standard 110vAC outlet.

eag1products.jpgEagle One Bucket-Free Car Wash

Wish you could wash your truck without lugging around a heavy bucket of suds? Eagle One has taken vehicle washing to a new level with Bucket-Free Car Wash, a spray-on soap that eliminates the need for a bucket while providing a faster, easier and better wash.

Bucket-Free has a super-concentrated formula that produces thick, foamy suds that lift deep down dirt to the surface. Just spray it on a wet vehicle, agitate with a wash mitt or sponge and rinse with a hose. And, because you don't recycle dirty water from a bucket on to the surface of the vehicle, the result is a spotless, shiny finish.

A bottle of Bucket-Free can provide dozens of washes. The suggested retail price is $4.99.

amsoil.gifAMSOIL's Propylene Glycol Antifreeze and Engine Coolant

AMSOIL Antifreeze & Coolant is newly formulated to provide benefits far beyond those found in today's conventional antifreeze and coolant products. This revolutionary formulation provides maximum antifreeze and cooling protection in the most extreme temperatures and operating conditions.

And unlike conventional ethylene glycol (EG) based products, which are highly toxic and even fatal, AMSOIL Antifreeze & Coolant is formulated with propylene glycol. It is biodegradable and requires no special disposal costs or procedures in most areas. Above all, its low toxicity presents no threat to children, pets or wildlife.

It is compatible with other EG coolant formulations including DEX-Cool, Sierra and Zerex.  This product boasts a life span up to seven years or 250,000 miles in over-the-road diesel trucks, and features a poly-organic acid technology that prevents corrosion, improves protection against liner pitting and even seals hairline cracks to prevent leaks.
