The can that moves in coastal stores

TC-11 is a corrosion-control spray born in Hawaii, where salt air destroys everything metal. It's built for the customer who has already lost a tool, a reel, or a gate hinge to the coast — and knows they'll lose the next one too.

We're taking new retail accounts. The form at the bottom reaches a real person in Hawaii, and we reply within two business days.

Why it earns its facing

• It looks serious on the shelf. The big can reads differently next to the small stuff, and it photographs well in an endcap.
• Corrosion is a repeat problem. Customers who solve it once come back for the same can — this is a rebuy category, not a one-time purchase.
• Honest value story. One big can, more product per dollar. We don't run comparison claims against other brands; the can size speaks for itself.
• It's a local brand. Made in and sold across Hawaii — the story your coastal customers actually respond to.

We make it easy for your staff to sell

This is the part most suppliers skip. Corrosion products die on the shelf when the floor staff can't answer a question about them.

• QR-backed staff training. A back-room poster scans to a 30-second "what to tell the customer" page — six scripted answers your team can read aloud. No training session, no binder, no cost to you.
• Shelf and hang-tag materials available on request.
• One-page sell sheet for your buyer, on request.

What it's for

Tools, hinges, locks, gates, bikes, fixtures, marine hardware, fishing gear, and equipment that lives outdoors. It's designed to help protect metal in harsh coastal conditions. Application is one routine your staff can memorize: shake hard, light film, work the part, wipe the excess.

Why the category matters

Corrosion is not a niche complaint. The most-cited U.S. study on the subject — the FHWA/NACE report Corrosion Costs and Preventive Strategies in the United States (FHWA-RD-01-156, 2002) — put the direct cost of corrosion at roughly $276 billion a year, about 3.1% of GDP. In a coastal store, that national number is just your customers' Saturday problem.

Straight answers for buyers

• Logistics: mainland fulfillment ships from Phoenix, Arizona; Hawaii accounts are serviced locally.
• Also available on Amazon — useful if you want to see the product and its reviews before you commit shelf space.
• Support: real people, Hawaii-based. You will not be routed to a call center.
• Availability: we'll confirm current stock and lead time for your specific order when we reply — we'd rather quote you honestly than promise a date we can't hold.
