What this record means
The record shows that the mark “TOP IT OFF” is dead and was abandoned by its owner, Saddleman, Inc., a Delaware corporation, because the applicant failed to file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was registered on the Principal Register and covered adhesive sealants for industrial and commercial use, specifically spray adhesives for vehicle interior applications such as headliners, door panels, carpets and other vehicle interior parts. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same niche of automotive interior adhesives. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods listed. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the abandonment on August 20, 2002. For someone considering a similar name, the history suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in the automotive interior adhesive market.
