Super Skate Spray!
Super Skate Spray! While sifting through hard drive buried treasures I rediscovered these pics from a 2018 auction, and remembered Super Skate Spray from the Vintage Skatemag Ad Gallery. It came from the Lubri-Kote company in Texas, circa 1976. There does not appear to be a Lubri-Kote anymore, but there is an international Lubrikote company based in India that was founded in 1975. Are they related? Who knows. Maybe Super Skate Spray was so successful that it launched an international lubricating empire…
Here’s the pics from the 2018 auction that has disappeared. The seller was trying to get $365. Another search turned up the same pictures in a current auction bundled with a skateboard pendant with an asking price of $400, same seller. Does he have a case of these cans in the garage or is he still holding out hope for the big score?
Here’s the Skate Spray advert from Skateboarder Magazine, vol 2 #4, 1976.
Take the lead from Bruce Logan and add speed to your board, without adding the damaging grit that other lubricants attract. Super Skate Spray is scientifically formulated for skateboard truck-bearings using a new lubrication technology, so it’s safe, non-staining, neat and effective. Plus you add life to bearings and rubber parts, too.
