[edit] Dwyer Custom Coatings
I speedied this as spam but an admin suggested I take it to AfD, so here it is. I find no rs coverage of this company and the only evidence of the "awards" is on their own sites. Regular ghits appear to be primarily directory listings. Notable clients != notable company, and I don't think this passes WP:CORP especially if we can't verify the awards.

- Delete. As a business that actually makes stuff, and can explain what it does using concrete nouns, I'd be inclined to give them the benefit of a doubt. But Google News draws a blank on them, which suggests that they do indeed lack notability. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:19, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
