JEFFREY R. HINKLE JOINS SCOTT'S LIQUID GOLD-INC.
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
DENVER, Colorado (July 17, 2000) - Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc. (OTC BB:"SLGD"),
which develops, manufactures and markets household and skin care products, today
announced the election of Jeffrey R. Hinkle to the Company's Board of Directors.
Jeffrey Hinkle joined Scott's Liquid Gold-Inc. as regional sales manager in
1981, was promoted to National Sales Manager in 1983, and to Vice President-
Marketing in February of this year. Born in Michigan and educated at the
University of South Florida, Mr. Hinkle has more than 24 years' experience in
consumer products marketing.
"The election of Jeff Hinkle will bring an experienced and enthusiastic new
voice to our Board of Directors," said Mark Goldstein, CEO and Chairman of the
Board. "Scott's Liquid Gold suffered the loss of two key executives, who were
also board members, during the first six months of this year," Goldstein
continued. "My father's death in January, and the recent death of our Chief
Financial Officer, Barry Shepard, has left some big shoes to fill in our
organization. I am confident that Jeff is exceptionally qualified and will
contribute greatly to our Board."
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 skin
care products, and Neoteric Diabetic Skin Care products. The Company is
