OK - I have bought some and turned it and like how it turns. But I don't know how to explain to customers what rhino plastic is and a google search didn't really help!:confused:
Can anyone help with an explanation/definition?

There is no reason you need to refer to it as RhinoPlastic when talking with your customers.

When talking about turning characteristics on IAP and in other venues, WHAT material you are turning is vital information to answer questions accurately.

When selling pens, "A specially formulated resin designed for optimal color characteristics and good functionality in its' roll as a pen" describes most every product you might use, without being so specific that your customer can locate the product you are using and determine what your costs of production might be.

Remember a room full of highly paid executives and marketing gurus met for several hours and determined that "PRECIOUS" was the right word for them.

I am not highly paid, nor a marketing guru:confused::confused::confused:---but I equate "precious" with "expensive". So, I would avoid it. However I have never seen a "TM" next to that, so you COULD use those words, if you are comfortable with them.:biggrin::biggrin:
 
Since I make my own resin blanks on my sales pens i coined the phrase "designer resin" and go on about how I can taylor the material to suit their needs.

It can put them in the frame of mind of getting a taylor made suit. And those aren't cheap :wink:

But if you even refer to precious resins enough tho there is on tm besides the name. You will trust me you will get a nasty letter from the company to stop or they will drag you though court. It's what happens when a company has been around a long time and was power. You can push it but may of us do not have the resources to take on that type fight.

I am fighting another battle right now do not know how it is going to turn out but if I do not fight I will lose my company. Pick your battles be sure you can win.

PS I can not go into the details right now. Because if there is no resolution it will go to court.
