Auto filter provider Fram will launch a nationwide TV campaign in April to bring the brand, rather than specific products, to the fore.

The lighthearted effort will portray grease spots as badges of honor among car-savvy men and try to forge a bond between the company and its mainly male target audience.

Four 15-second spots crafted by Arnold Worldwide, Boston, show husbands leaving grease stains on sandwiches, counters and sinks after changing their car’s oil filter.

The tagline is, “Nothing feels better than a job well done, and nothing helps you do the job better than Fram.”

Jim Brown, director of marketing at Fram, a Danbury, Conn.-based
