Lining and Coating Service AKA Spray-Lining SCAM site created by Julius Lupowitz Internet
Report Attachments
A company names Spray-Lining, and a person claiming to be an "employee" of that company will call a body shop or repair shop, or will be called by them in answer to an ad and in the course of talking to them will say "Oh, do you know Lining and Coating Services? they were the Spray-Lining dealer in your area (fill in the blank of where you are located) and we just had to revoke their dealership because they were a Line-X dealer and we had no problem with that but Line-X revoked them for doing business with us. So the dealer, Kurt McClintock, was using our marketing to get rid of his $60,000 worth of Line-X stock, so we had to revoke him. I told him that the company would revoke him, and I tried to talk my father who is 10% owner of the company out of it, but they revoked him anyway. He and I are still friends, but he is mainly upset with himself for it.
He was doing a quarter of a million dollars of business, and if you become a dealer, it won't be a new dealership, you will be taking over Kurt's area, so we can call your business _______ (fill in your name) Lining and Coating Service and rebuild the website around your information." http://www.liningandcoatingservice.com is just a fake website used by Jeff Powell, AKA Julius Lupowitz to sucker new dealers into giving him $10,200 for the dealership. And he has them wire transfer the money because it can't be reversed like a check or credit card payment, because he never gives back the money if they change their minds. This scam has been going on for at least 5 years and will probably continue unless Julius Lupowitz is somehow stopped.
Don't let Julius Lupowitz or Jeff Powell or Leroy or Billy or Kurt or Bill Dalburo or all the other names he uses when answering the multiple phones he has to seem to be different people when the dealers call the "references" rip you off. Keep your thousands of dollars in your pocket, because if you give it to him, you will lose. Oh and for the claim that he is just an employee and there are 7 other tech support people in his department, he is the sole owner of the company and there are only 2 other people working for him in his office. Lining and Coating Service is a SCAM. You can also go to http://www.texliner.info for his past dealings.

What you wrote makes no sense. It has nothing to do with the subject in the report. Julius Lupowitz is ripping off people all over the country with his phoney "Lining and Coating Service", Kurt McClintock scam and it has nothing to do with the quality of a product or China products. There is no such person as Kurt McClintock, he is a made up person and when you call the toll free number on his website or the direct number that "Jeff Powell" AKA Julius Lupowitz gives you, you will get a person on the line with a phoney South African accent that is actually Lupowitz of Spray-Lining talking to you. He has a bunch of accents that he uses when his potential dealers call his "references". They have a variety of names and accents and locations. That is the beauty of using VOIP phone system, you can have any area code on your phones, and have them all on one phone with a bunch of extensions. So you know who the person is calling to get the name and accent (and story) straight. Next time you add a rebuttal to a ripoff report, try to know what you are talking about.

This is a hefty job for someone to undertake and I don't believe that the person writing this is a valid resource. I have a lot of experience with companies that do applications and this one is not a problem. There are many reviews about the relevence of this business in the industry. As for the issues brought up by the reporter of this thing, they are obviously disgruntled, but I don't think we can make any fair decisions from their information. These people probably exist and these accusations are not warranted.
Rip off report is open ended, meaning that anyone can submit information, whether it's true or not to this system. Then it is up to the business owner, or person to defend themselves. This whole concept is unfair and should not be highly regarded if there are many other sources that prove the validity of any entity. However, this system is warranted in some cases. I don't think this is one of them.
There are so many customers out there and so many unsatisfied people out there due to cheap products that are manufactured in China with low specs because we allow ourselves to be raked over the coals. Disposable products, highly imperfect products, products meant to fail. This seems to be the way of our manufacturing industries because we have allowed this to happen by not refusing goods and services. Be a part of the solution by refusing poor quality when you see it. This must happen in order to bring any kind of change at all......
