<p>However as stated in the video that all polishes are toxic may be an over statement. In fact, &#8220;Ollie&#8221; ( Ulrich Jentsch ) President of Flitz International, claims that his polish is perfectly safe and not harmful, on his dealer training videos. Neither he or I would recommend that you eat it, but Flitz does in fact sport a USDA label on its Flitz Metal, Plastic &amp; Fiberglass Polish and Paint Restorer. I believe Flitz may well be the only polish that does have it. The <a title="Flitz 2 pound can" href="http://www.winterbrookfarmantiques.com/product_info.php?products_id=1050?" target="_blank">Flitz 2 pound can</a> has the USDA Authorized label printed right on it. The <a title="Flitz 1.76 ounce tube" href="http://www.winterbrookfarmantiques.com/product_info.php?products_id=1048?" target="_blank">Flitz 1.76</a> and<a title="Flitz 5.29 ounce tube" href="http://www.winterbrookfarmantiques.com/product_info.php?products_id=1049" target="_blank"> Flitz 5.29</a> ounce tubes have it printed on the box or blister packaging. So you may not see the label on tube itself. Flitz polish that is in tubes is not a liquid as stated in the video, it has the consistency more of toothpaste. There is in fact a <a title="Flitz Liquid Polish" href="http://www.winterbrookfarmantiques.com/product_info.php?products_id=1047" target="_blank">Flitz Liquid Polish</a>, but it is packaged in a bottle. On the label on the back of the new black bottles toward the bottom by the bar code is printed USDA Authorized.</p>

<p>A last thought on keeping safe ( in case you need a reminder ) is an interesting post on <a title="Blade Forums" href="http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/" target="_blank">BladeForums.com</a> &#8220;The  Leading Edge of Knife Discussions&#8221;,  posted by DRider . An entry including a picture, post emergency room visit, of what can happen to you with a sharp knife blade. <a href="http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=568924" target="_blank"> Honey&#8230; could you come in here?
