COSTA MESA, Calif.--July 25, 2006--Powerlock International Corp. (Pink Sheets: PWLK) is pleased to announce that the star of A&E Network's highest-rated show, "Dog The Bounty Hunter," Duane "Dog" Chapman, is the new spokesperson for their Wheel Safe product line. Dog filmed a 30-second video news release on Friday, July 21, 2006, in a downtown Los Angeles automotive center.

Rick Fass, president of Powerlock International Corp., stated, "We love the Dog. His life's work, capturing criminals, combined with his own personal journey -- from a criminal to a crime fighter -- makes him the perfect fit for Powerlock. Plus, Dog's popularity cuts across all demographic lines."

Powerlock International Corp. (www.powerlock.com) specializes in vehicle anti-theft devices that cannot be bypassed by electrical means (hot-wiring) or removed. They are installed on the vehicle's starter to render it immobile in the event of a theft attempt and are guaranteed to work.

The Wheel Safe Electronic Security Alarm System is the world's first wireless anti-theft device for a vehicle's wheels and tires. Each wheel has a wireless electronic sensor mounted on it. This sensor is similar to a traditional wheel balance weight. The actual device is mounted underneath the vehicle's dashboard. If any wheel is removed from its hub, or tampered with, an integrated siren will sound at a noise level of 125 decibels which can barely be tolerated by the human ear. Wheel Safe(R) may also be integrated to alert the owner via text message on his cell phone in real time.

The Anti-Theft Device Problem Powerlock is Solving

Nine out of 10 cars are hot-wired and driven away. Mechanical devices such as steering wheel bars and pedal locks are only a minor inconvenience for the professional. Car alarms can be "hot-wired." The professional thief simply cuts or jumps the alarm wires and he is gone. Tracking devices that are used by police to locate stolen cars do not stop the vehicle from being hot-wired, driven away, and dismantled.
