Well Mr. P, let me try and put this to rest for those who seem to believe a salesperson.

Since I have been employed by CPF for the last 8 years there has been a thorn in one's side on the other side of town called Commonwealth Laminating. They produce Axius window film you may find in Walmart and other like places, which at that time competed with CPF's Gila brand.

Approximately 4-5 years ago the head of CPF's DIY dept left (thankfully, in many opinions at CPF) and went to Commonwealth. He must have left resentfully because once he went to work there (CWL), he convinced the investers to go Professional films, too (Obviously to become the thorn in one's side they are today).

CPF could someday just buy that entire operation up (like when Courtaulds came from England and bought Martin Processing, Gila/Insulafilm and US Lamco) and guess who'd be the first to be asked to not return to work.

CWL recently invested 6-7 million (Gov't subsidized, your's and my tax money) into a new coating and laminating machine that they have had fits trying to get up and running. They even asked CPF for help (imagine that)! The last I heard anything on this was even the maker of the $6-7 million dollar machine could not fix it. CPF has the same machine and our guys have made it work. Did we share that info with them or the maker... ha ha ha... let 'em find their own solution.

The only relation CWL has with CPF is that most who are asked to leave CPF go to work over there.

Also, CPF sells components to all other film makers and many of their sales personnel like to express this to imply their film quality as equal... is CPF selling to CWL? No one's talking. Does that make everyone who buys components equal in quality? None of the components used for CPF's film products is sold to others, despite what some mouthy salesperson might say, they are proprietary to CPF only.

There you go... a view from the other side.

Thank you Metint. You will not find a more honest and informative person here on the board.

what if a CPF salesperson told me that CWL gets its raw materials from CPF (not doubting YOUR professional 'view') but what do you tell this guy in return?? just curious... actually, it doesn't matter to me what he says... if it's untrue its untrue. truth speaks volumes. thank you for your insight metint

ok never mind... I just re-read your post. point cleared... but either way, the CPF sales rep shouldn't be telling people that info unless he knows for a fact that it's true.

Salespeople are lying when?

When they're lips are moving.

New commercial on TV about allergies tells it all...

Sales people are in meetings and someone is constantly sneezing to the point that they miss most the info being given... gotta make stuff up as fillers you know...

[Guest Zrok]

oh I know, just like we tell customers that tint don't fade (well, some of us don't but you get the idea)

Thanks for the insight (hum'em) metint! I did outside sales for a payroll and human resource (Fortune 500) company for a couple of years...they made us memorize all kinds of crap too (j/k)
