We've often been asked: "How does it work on large scales?" Well, here's a video link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFRLkgxyENI This was done by a BULLFROG SNOT user, with no affiliation or assistance from us. That engine slips approaching the hill on a garden layout, and with BULLFROG SNOT just marches on up like it was no problem. Just proves our point, modern power is purty good, but it needs grip. BULLFROG SNOT means GRIP ! When will the factories catch on??
BULLFROG SNOT is the fix for many slippery situations ! Check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6atVGD9jpqc for a card dealing robot. While it's become the must have essential for model trains, the need for BULLFROG SNOT in many other applications is just beginning to be discovered. A whole new world awaits ! VCR repairmen ! Are you listening? What's that? There are NO VCR repairmen anymore? BULLFROG SNOT, the performance improvement you can install.
THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) - Greek officials say a horde of frogs has forced the closure of a key northern highway for two hours. Thessaloniki traffic police chief Giorgos Thanoglou says "millions" of the amphibians covered the tarmac Wednesday near the town of Langadas, some 12 miles east of Thessaloniki. "There was a carpet of frogs," he said. Authorities closed the highway after three car drivers skidded off the road trying to dodge the frogs. No human injuries were reported. Thanoglou said the amphibians probably left a nearby lake to mate.
That was genuine news. We had nothing to do with it. Zip. Nada. Greek frogs have slippery snot. Mojave frogs produce the magic BULLFROG SNOT.
Did you see the Walthers Flyer? "Prepare to be amazed" they said. Cool, huh?
MODEL RAILROAD NEWS has printed a review of BULLFROG SNOT in their April 2010 issue. Weird Name, Great Product they say (thanks, we think so too). And another user has discovered just how tough the snot of Bullfrog is by sealing their lid shut. They even show a photo of the jar post-struggle. (We assume the channel-locs won out) Be careful, we warn everyone, but some just have to learn from experience. Thanks for the review! To all you doubters out there: Nah, nah, nah!
Hey all! See us in beautiful Long Beach at the World's Greatest Hobby On Tour show Feb 13-14. Lots of other train stuff vendors, layouts on display and more. Buy some BULLFROG SNOT, meet the BULLFROG hisself!
BULLFROG SNOT, when you are ready to get serious! Get a grip!
There have appeared a few chat threads discussing wheelspin and motor burnout. These nattering nabobs of negativism have the strongly held opinion that if the wheels can't spin you'll soon see smoke. And since they think BULLFROG SNOT won't allow the wheels to break loose, it should be shunned.
Well ..... they've not used BULLFROG SNOT have they? In most cases BULLFROG SNOT improves pulling power by 2X, often more. But there are limits to the miracles it will do. It will slip and allow wheelspin. Oh, yes it will. On cold days in the trainroom, we'll smack the throttle and do a 'burnout' to warm up the SNOT and make it grippy. When you have one car too many, you'll find the limit.
So go ahead and add weights. Have fun. Knock your self out. Be among the very last of the Luddites to discover BULLFROG SNOT. The rest of the world is passing you by. On a hill. With a long train.
There remains that few of us that are having problems with BULLFROG SNOT. It is important for us to remind everyone that BULLFROG SNOT is a product AND a process. The method of installation took as much development as extracting the magic green goo.
When we hear 'it goes on in clumps' we know the user is rotating the wheels TOWARD the applicator. No, no, no! For smooth SNOT rotate AWAY. If this is difficult to comprehend, just look at the pictures.
And when we hear 'the SNOT is lumpy and makes the engine hop' we know that you did not let the wheels turn while it cures. Just long enough for it to change color is enough, but this is a critical stage, as it assures a nice round tire. No shortcuts!
And the rotation speed does not need to be fast, less than 1/4 throttle. Enough speed to get an even layer is all. Simple really.
It's an easy skill to acquire. When you're serious about model railroading and are ready to move on from toy trains, you're ready for BULLFROG SNOT!
Ever see frogs in winter? When it's cold, they sleep. BULLFROG SNOT can be frozen in shipment. Once frozen, it's gone. There is no recovery, the magical DNA just quits. We pack domestic orders in multiple layers of bubble wrap surrounded by several inches of insulating fluffy froggie droppings, and a warning label on the box. It survives the trip well, unless it is left outside for long periods in sub-freezing conditions. International deliveries don't get as much protection, there is just no room in the box. So, if there is the possibility of freezing, you'd best get your BULLFROG SNOT from your favorite LHS. Keep it snuggled in your pocket. Once applied and properly cured, you'll have no problems. In fact, it will solve your problems and have you running long trains uphill.
