A Weekly Summary of Polywater® News of Incredible Importance
Issue #605

Introducing new DT-D65 Dry Towels. The field-friendly self-dispensing plastic canister is durable, resealable, highly portable, and helps protect wipes from moisture, dust, bugs, and other grime--perfect for the service truck.
           New Package Alert. For many years Polywater has enjoyed a nifty supplemental business selling dry wipes in a box (Cat #DT-69 and DT-1212). Dry towels are ideal for wiping excess solvent from cables during splicing to speed evaporation rate, or as a means of applying bulk solvent. Our specially engineered wipes can also replace rags, which are a poor choice for cable cleaning since they deposit lint and other residues that can lead to tracking in electrical cables or attenuation in communications work. Some customers, however, are not enamored with the box dispenser, which can be clumsy and susceptible to damage in field conditions.

Introducing the SpliceMaster® Dry Towels in the DT-D65 Canister Package. DT-D65 wipes are a slightly different style from the boxed wipes. The material is an apertured, spunlace polyester/wood-pulp blend. DT-D65 wipes contain no binders or other chemical residues. They are durable with a high tensile strength in both directions. They have high absorbency. The apertures (small holes or textured spaces) help grab and hold contaminants during the cleaning process. Non-linting, non-tearing, and non-snagging DT-D65 towelettes have an infinite number of uses beyond cable cleaning. The field-friendly self-dispensing plastic canister is durable, resealable, highly portable, and helps protect wipes from moisture, dust, bugs, and other grime--perfect for the service truck.
  • NON-LINTING - Leaves no residue that could lead to tracking or attenuation.
  • VERSATILE - Use to apply bulk solvents, or wipe them dry.
  • BIG SIZE - Large 8" x 12" towel size handles most jobs.
  • DURABLE PACK - More protection from moisture and dust than a box.
  • DURABLE WIPE - Won't shred under heavy wiping load.
  • CONVENIENT - Eliminates the need to search for rags.
  • HANDY PACKAGING - Perforation-cut for easy dispensing from canister.

The Friday Fax Editor's Joke of the Week
The Joke		                               Why We Love Children.   1) NUDITY: I was driving with my children one warm summer evening when a woman in the convertible ahead of us stood up and waved. She was stark naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my 5-year-old shout from the back seat, "Mom, that lady isn't wearing a seat belt!" 2) OPINIONS: On the first day of school, a first-grader handed his teacher a note from his mother. The note read, "The opinions expressed by this child are not necessarily those of his parents." 3) KETCHUP: A woman was trying hard to get the ketchup out of the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her 4-year-old daughter to answer the phone. "Mommy can't come to the phone to talk to you right now. She's hitting the bottle." 4) MORE NUDITY: A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself in the women's locker room. When he was spotted, the room burst into shrieks, with ladies grabbing towels and running for cover. The little boy watched in amazement and then asked, "What's the matter, haven't you ever seen a little boy before?" 5) POLICE: While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary school, I was interrupted by a little girl about six years old. Looking up and down at my uniform, she asked, "Are you a cop?" I nodded and continued writing the report. "My mother said if I ever needed help I should ask the police. Is that right?" I nodded again. "Well, then," she said as she extended her foot toward me, "would you please tie my shoe?" 6) SCHOOL: A little girl had just finished her first week of school. "I'm just wasting my time," she said to her mother. "I can't read, I can't write, and they won't let me talk!"
