At Armor Protective Packaging®, we stand behind our motto Taking the Work Out of Your Workday™. It isn’t just marketing “mumbo jumbo,” it is a guiding principle and focus of our business. Just a few, short days ago, ARMOR put those words into action with the debut of a new, online interactive tool designed to help deconstruct rust issues and to provide solutions to avoid its return. Its formal name:  ASK JERRY™ — Armor Protective Packaging’s Rust Eradicator Online-Navigator or ASK JERRY for short.

Do you need advice on how to eliminate a rust problem? Just ASK JERRY. Do you need a recommendation on how to package metals for a new project? Just ASK JERRY. In return, you’ll receive a customized report of recommendations and solutions specific to your unique rust issues available for review or download on-the-spot. ARMOR’s ASK JERRY is free and accessible online 24/7 – this is the Taking the Work Out of Your Workday motto at its finest.

ASK JERRY is Easy to Use – Here’s How

ASK JERRY is easy to access and easy to use — here’s how: launch ASK JERRY on the ARMOR website and simply follow the prompts and answer ASK JERRY’s questions on the specifics of your rust issue or concern – think of it like using TurboTax® for rust issues!  Once all of your input is complete, sit back and relax while ASK JERRY conducts a formal rust analysis using its extensive database built from the knowledge and 40+ years of field experience of ARMOR’s sales and technical teams.

In less than 7 minutes (we have time trials to prove it), ASK JERRY generates a custom Recommendations Report that is sent directly to your screen to view or download.  This Recommendations Report is the real icing on the cake – it not only provides a recap of the details of your rust issue (based on your responses to ASK JERRY’s questions), it outlines strategies for identifying the cause of rust and it offers recommendations for processing and packaging your metal parts to keep them rust free.

Here’s where the ARMOR Taking-The-Work-Out-Of-Your-Workday philosophy rubber meets the road – ASK JERRY is quick, it’s easy and it is “on the house.”  Most importantly, it does the work for you – this is no risk assessment, it’s a rust assessment.  ASK JERRY puts a customized report of rust recommendations and solutions right in the palm of your hand within minutes.

Whether you have a new project that requires rust prevention packaging for metal parts or a rust issue that’s been plaguing you, ARMOR’s ASK JERRY is a certified in-the-know rust pro available to help.

The ”Real” ASK JERRY: Who is the Man Behind the Name?

Jerry is a real person, he is a retired sales rep who worked for ARMOR for many years.  As a salesman, he was a straight shooter – his approach was outspoken and no-nonsense and he had a sarcastic wit and humor that gave the impression he was one tough cookie. Until, that is, you got to know him — because, Jerry was one book you could not judge by its cover.

The truth is, whether you were a customer or a co-worker, Jerry always had your back – his efforts, his gestures, his help are ARMOR legend.  If a customer needed help deciphering a rust problem, Jerry was onsite and all ears; if they needed product on short notice, Jerry was known to drive it there himself; if they needed a ride from the airport, Jerry was there.

In life, there are people you want on your side or in your foxhole – that’s Jerry!  ARMOR wanted to capture Jerry’s unrelenting effort to give his customers what they needed, when they needed it, and to find a way to share the entire ARMOR team’s extensive rust knowledge, so we created a “virtual” Jerry or what we now call ASK JERRY.
