The Evolution of the Perfect-Straw™ and FLEX-TIP™

DeoxIT® Line Sprays: The Evolution of the Perfect-Straw™

WHY the Perfect-Straw™ :

Prior to 2016, CAIG Labs used rubber bands, tape and/or shrink wrap to affix extension straws to our DeoxIT® Line spray cans.  When we did this, we regularly received customer calls and correspondence regarding the straws.  Such customer contacts were regarding the fact that the customer either lost the straw, did not get a straw, the straw was too fat for the actuator, or they broke the actuator putting the straw in.  This is why CAIG Labs introduced the integrated Perfect-Straw™ for our DeoxIT® Line Sprays (the “PS”).  Believe it or not, our only concern including the new PS with the DeoxIT® Line was the happiness of our customers.  We now understand that the PS has led to other concerns arising for our faithful users.

Since implementing the PS, we have again heard from our customer base about a few things that are challenging with respect to using the integrated PS.  So, again, you asked and we listened! 

Extension Straw too THICK:

Initially, many of you told CAIG Labs that the new PS is too fat for some applications. Likewise, you told us that the PS was not as “flexible” as the old straws such that it cannot spray into some places where the old straw could. The new FLEX-TIP™ is now also offered in response to customers asking for a more flexible straw to get into very tight and difficult areas – YES, we listened.

In addition, we have even made a video showing how all the different straws and sprays work. See video here ==>

NEW Spray/valve, TOO MUCH Comes out:

More recently, we have been receiving new feedback from our customers that the new Perfect-Straw™ Sprays is too forceful and sprays faster than our old sprays. We checked this claim and agreed with you. Therefore, after testing with positive customer and distributor feedback, in our latest runs of the DeoxIT® Line sprays (November 2017) we incorporated a new valve with more control. The valve dispensing will be similar to between the Low and Medium of the old L-M-H valve we replaced. With the addition of the FLEX-TIP™, this package will provide maximum flexibility applying our DeoxIT® products.

BRAGGING RIGHTS:

Accordingly, we at CAIG Labs believe that we have not only listened to our customers, but we have made actual changes in response to constructive comments and our products are better because of the same. Normally, we would not be “bragging” about making such changes. However, as our customers are primarily responsible for the addition of the integrated Perfect-Straw, FLEX-TIP™ to the DeoxIT® Line sprays, we wanted to let you all know the whole story.
