WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY
"Oceaneering has utilized the product known as Syntho-Glass® for
number of years in the Gulf of Mexico. We had excellent results with this
product for the Permanent repair of Pipelines and risers."
Oceaneering International, Inc., Bayou Vista, LA
"Syntho-Glass® is a lifesaver. Stops the leaks and is quick and
easy to use. No draining heat lines, no cutting and soldering copper pipe
- its incredible!"
John R. Blsma, Sr.
"Amoco Oil Co. is to clean and wrap nine breasting dolphins which consist
of approximately seventy-two eighteen inch diameter vertical steel pilings.
The research center has given approval for the application of Syntho-Glass® in
wetted zone of the docking facility. This will save Amoco over one million
dollars in replacement costs."
Tejas Services, Dickinson, TX
"Our customers (diving companies) have been demanding more and more of the product lately because their customers (oil companies) are requesting it by name. Comments are that it is easier to apply than Splash Zone and it quickly repairs scrapes and gouges in pipelines caused by anchors, trawls, or just their own testing. It is truly nice to represent a product so much in demand."
Diver’s Supply, Grenta, LA
"We have used the Syntho-Glass® on many acid leaks and the product has not failed nor had any breakdown in physical structure. We have proven that Syntho-Glass® is the best product to permanently seal any steam line leaks."
USS Posco, Pittsburg, CA
"While working on the sewage line going from the Statue of Liberty
to shore we discovered a 3" x 8" hole in the pipe. The pipe being
100 years old and buried in the mud…no commercial made pipe repair clamp
is made to repair the damage. We decided to use your product and wrapped
the pipe. Within ½ hour
they were back on line and it held fine."
Randive, Inc., Staten Island, NY
"Our application of Syntho-Glass® involved patching a hole in a cylinder
under water. Following 10 minutes of pressure at 160 psi there was no noticeable
air escape from the patched 2 x 2 inch hole. Eight hours later there was no
change. Syntho-Glass® is an extraordinarily efficient patch and it works
well under water. One hour and fifteen minutes of applied heat of varying degrees
saw no change in Syntho-Glass® characteristics nor was adhesion affected."
Report to Consumers, Eugene, OR
"For the past two years we have successfully used almost all your products
to seal and stop leaking pipes throughout their entire facility. The products
have often saved the day. With the aid of your products, we have been able
to short and stop 100% of the leaks in the pipelines and fittings, without
exception. The piping is PVC and ranges in size from 2 to 8 inches in diameter,
operating at 80 to 90 psi, transporting water, diluted acids and an assortment
of chemicals."
Corrosion Controllers, Washougal, WA
"The Syntho-Glass® material saved the project. The product you are
distributing has been written into the company’s specifications to protect
the vertical steel pipe piling in the corrosive splash-zone area. It is an
amazing product."
Pile Driving Specialists, Inc., Houston, TX
"CGC Point Winslow was diverted to assist an 80 foot fishing vessel Brandi
II taking on water and the crew preparing to abandon ship, over 100 NM offshore.
The rubber of the shaft packing had melted around the shaft, causing water
to spray throughout the boat. The long term repair would have the F/V hauled
out of water once safely towed into port. The short term solution was to use
Syntho-Glass® instant
repair resin coated cloth to patch the shaft packing. The RA was passed three
kits from the cutter’s Piping Patch kit. Syntho-Glass® was wrapped around
the shaft log and shaft, similar to wrapping a broken arm to form a cast. The
Syntho-Glass® was
a huge success holding for the entire tow to port, saving the vessel from sinking
and placing the crew in harms way."
United States Coast Guard, Morgan City, LA
"I had several small leaks in our main water supply pipe which supplies
an average of 2.5 million gallons of water each day. The pipe was leaking in
4 places. The pipe that needed to be fixed was 16" diameter steel pipe
covered with many coats of paint. Four holes were shooting water 30 feet into
the air. The repair was finished in an amazing 40 minutes! We were able to
power up to full capacity within the hour. Your repair not only saved me money,
but also saved Wellington residents from an emergency crisis over the weekend."
ACME Improvement District, Wellington, FL
