LAGUNA BEACH, Calif., June 17, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- FEATURE ARTICLE -- The following is by Don Logay, of Don Logay Productions.
Still shopping for Father's Day? Got a hard-to-buy-for Dad who's not the traditional "socks and tie" kind of guy? If you've pretty well exhausted your list of options and creative ideas -- and you're still stumped -- here's a solution you may not have considered.

If Dad's a handyman sort, then tools are always a good choice. But if your guy already has all the basics, plus every new gadget and gizmo known to man, the "cool tool" solution quickly evaporates. Unless...Dad's home also has drains that continually run slow or frequently get clogged up. Then, buying him a cool new tool is again back in the game.
A new instant drain opener, just introduced at the recent Hardware Show in Chicago, was hailed as one of the most innovative products of 2004. Using only a quick blast of compressed air, Kleer Drain(tm) easily removes even the most stubborn clogs in sinks, tubs, toilets and drains (up to 4-inches) indoors or out.
While giving a "super" drain opener as a gift may seem odd at first, when you think about it -- it's a heck of a good idea. Not only for Dad, but for live-alone Moms and anyone else who wants to avoid pouring strong chemicals and waiting...plunging and re-plunging...or (even worse) reaching for the phone when drains seem hopelessly clogged.
For this reason, the affordable (under $30) and re-usable Kleer Drain is flying off shelves at local Home Depot and Do It Best stores.
A Father's Day gift of this new "air burst" technology will not only appease Dad's love of tools, and solve pesky household drain problems, it'll also make him the most popular guy on the block (once neighbors learn what Kleer Drain does -- and that Daddy-o has one).
Neighborhood hero? Maybe. Certainly appreciative.
