CARL A. BELLINI JOINS SCOTT'S LIQUID GOLD-INC.
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
DENVER, Colorado (August 21, 2000) - Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc. (OTC BB: "SLGD"),
which develops, manufactures and markets household and skin care products, today
announced the election of Carl A. Bellini to the Company's Board of Directors.
Mr. Bellini is the retired Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer
of Revco D. S., Inc. (NYSE: "RXR") and a former Director of that company. Revco
was the second-largest drugstore chain in the United States. Prior to joining
Revco D.S., in 1987, he held executive positions with several large retail
companies, including Family Dollar Stores, W.T. Grant, and The Sherwin-Williams
Company, and from 1989 to 1992 he served as President/CEO of Erol's, Inc., a
video and electronics chain based in Washington, DC. Mr. Bellini's present
firm, Carl Bellini & Associates, is a retail consulting organization.
Mr. Bellini, who received his B. A. Degree in Economics from Tufts University,
currently serves as a Director of 800 Travel Systems, Inc and as an Advisory
Director of Manco Tapes and Adhesives, Inc.; Farmecia Ahumada (a drugstore chain
in Chile); and Ratcher Press.
"The election of Carl Bellini brings extensive retail executive experience and a
dynamic new voice to our Board of Directors," noted Mark E. Goldstein, Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer of Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc. "Our Company is
rebuilding its Board after the loss of two valued directors to terminal
illnesses earlier this year. During his many years with Revco, Carl Bellini's
responsibilities included marketing, store operations and managed care
relationships. Since the majority of our products are sold to drugstore chains
and other mass merchandisers, we are confident that Carl's experience will prove
highly valuable as we craft a growth strategy for the 21st Century."
Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc. develops, manufactures and markets high quality
household and consumer products, including Scott's Liquid Gold wood
cleaners/preservatives, Touch of Scent air fresheners, and Alpha Hydrox skincare
products. The Company is headquartered in Denver, Colorado and its common stock
is listed on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "SLGD".
