Default KAL-GARD "Prep & Shine"

This will be an information area for anyone to ask and get questions answered on any of the Kal-Gard products.

For those that haven't heard about Kal-Gard Lubricants, we have our roots in the Moto X industry and have recently taken our products into RC Racing. We have been testing these products for several months and we have Pro/Team drivers running and continuing to test the entire line.

One of our innovative products that offroad nitro racers will love is our Prep & Shine. This cleaner is sprayed on a clean car (only being careful to keep it off the braking system) and it will give the car a shiny new look. We even spray it on the radio tray to help keep the electronics clean and this cleaner will not "gum up" in the bearings, CVD's, or shocks. It sprays on very lightly so it is easy apply.

We will be at SIC this weekend supporting one of our new Dealers "The Speed Shop" so come down and see us.

Some other products being used in RC racing now:

Contact Cleaner
Degreaser
Foam Filter Cleaner/Oil
30-30
Clear chain Coat


We are now searching for new dealers: Please email to rc.kal-gard.com

NOTE: We have had mixed testing at this time as far as spraying the Prep & Shine on Lexan, we will have our lab perform and official test in a controlled enviroment and post the results. Until now, we recommend you do not spray Lexan Bodies. Most of us have had ZERO problems and this may not be an issue, it is just warning until we have finished testing.

Nice to see motocross products merging with rc racing. rc racing is really underrated and is pretty much just like motocross...just cut down to scale. Cant wait to tryout this product. Ive heard good things about kal-gard products!!!

Yes, we will be there set up with the Speed Shop.

We will have the whole product line. The Clear Chain Lube that I have being using for CVD's and testing is showing very positive results.

We've been using Kalgard here at Track Star since the RCX Show this year and can say all of their products used thus far have exceeded expectations.


Glad to see you guys are now accepting R/C shops as dealers.

Do you have contact info for them? If there is not a dealer in your area, contact me and I can get you some. Just send me a PM.

Because the Products were meant for Moto X and now carrying over into RC we are aggressively seeking dealers. Our normal minimums that we require in Moto have been lowered for RC specific shops. So now is the time, once we have a dealer network, those minimums will be increased to protect our dealers.

So tell your local shops to email me at rc.kal-gard@comcast.net.


I will be getting some to Barry Pettit, Chris Pace and Brandon Melton at SIC, so if you race with them they will be able to show you what our products can do.

How about some before/after shots? (of a "clean" car and then after being sprayed with the product)?

We do not. If you have a local shop. Have them contact me or give me their info and I will have a rep contact them.


We are going to post some pics and You Tube videos in the next few days on how the products work and how and when to apply them.


We had a great weekend at SIC. We went through 10 case in one day. We have brought and new product to RC and it is the De-Greaser. I will post more info soon.

We have also brought Brandon Melton, Chris Pace, and Berry Pettit on the Kalgard Team.

Kal-Gard just works! Been using it for several weeks now, with fantastic results. I threw the Pledge in the trash can after my first run with KalGard! Using the Degreaser then hitting with Prep and Shine works even better and the buggy looks new every time! Dirt/dust blows right off with an air compressor.
