REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
                                        
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc.:

We have audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the
consolidated financial statements included in Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc.'s 1996
Annual Report incorporated by reference in this Form 10-K, and have issued our
report thereon dated January 21, 1997.  Our audit was made for the purpose of
forming an opinion on those statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental
Schedule II is the responsibility of the Company's management and is presented
for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules
and is not part of the basic consolidated financial statements.  This schedule
has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all
material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in
relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.
