Stock Car Racing Crew Chiefs Tout Benefits of New WypAll(R) X80 Towels
SuperCharged WypAll(R) X80 Towels Make Cloth Shop Rags Obsolete
ROSWELL, Ga., March 21 -- Kimberly-Clark Professional introduces new and improved SuperCharged WypAll(R) X80 Towels. The new towels are softer and 40 percent thicker, with 50 percent higher oil absorbency than before. Pound-for-pound, new SuperCharged WypAll(R) X80 Towels absorb more water and oil than rental shop towels.

"Whether we're at the race or in the garage, when seconds count, I can count on SuperCharged WypAll(R) X80 Towels," says Tony Eury Sr., Senior Crew Chief for Dale Earnhardt Inc.'s #8 and #15 teams. "These wipers are softer and more absorbent, even when it comes to heavy oil and grease. And, they're more reliable than shop towels or rags."
Like all WypAll(R) brand products, SuperCharged WypAll(R) X80 Towels are consistent in size, cleanliness and performance - a big advantage over cloth shop towels and rags, which often differ in size, strength, performance and even the materials from which they're made. Moreover, unlike laundered shop towels, the new towels contain no holes, strings, metal chips or residues.
"These new WypAll(R) X80 Towels soak up oil better than anything we've ever used," says Robbie Reiser, Crew Chief for Roush Racing #17 team. "And because they are more consistent than shop towels, we saved money, too."
Kimberly-Clark Professional backs this cost-savings claim with its WypAll(R) X Wiper Challenge: users who replace their present cloth rags or rental shop towels with WypAll(R) X80 Towels for 60 days will save a guaranteed 10 percent.
SuperCharged WypAll(R) X80 Towels are available in a variety of sizes, colors (red hot, cotton white, and steel blue) and dispensing options, including folded, boxed, and jumbo roll. They are available for purchase from most industrial and janitorial distributors.
Crew Chief Promotions
In conjunction with the introduction of SuperCharged WypAll(R) X80 Towels, Kimberly-Clark Professional is offering a commemorative Tony Eury Sr. 2004 BUD car or a pair of #8 safety glasses in return for purchase of the new product. In addition, the company is offering users a chance to enter its "Crew Chief for a Week" contest, in which one lucky winner will get to be an honorary Crew Chief for a Week at Dale Earnhardt Inc. the final week of the 2005 race season.
