Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On February 16, 2012, Brian L. Boberick’s service as Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer of Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc. (the “Company”) terminated.

Barry J. Levine has been appointed to serve as Treasurer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of the Company beginning on February 27, 2012. Consistent with the other executive officers of the Company, Mr. Levine’s employment will be at will and he will not have an employment agreement with the Company.

Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Levine was Director of Business Advisory Services at Hein & Associates, LLP, a leading accounting and consulting firm. Prior to that, he served as Chief Executive Officer of LGK Advisors, LLC, a national business advisory firm, from 2008 to 2011. From 2005 to 2008, he served as Senior Vice President, Business Affairs and General Counsel for Cohen Brothers Homes, LLC, a residential homebuilder and real estate developer.

Mr. Levine’s compensation, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, will consist of an annual salary of $190,000, an auto allowance of $650 monthly, and participation in those Company-sponsored benefits that are available to all Company executive officers. The Company also agreed to grant Mr. Levine a stock option to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which will be issued under the Company’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan and which will vest 1/48 per month.

If, during the first year of his employment with the Company, Mr. Levine is terminated without cause or following a change in control of the Company (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors), Mr. Levine will be entitled to receive the remainder of his first year’s cash compensation as severance pay.

In connection with his becoming an executive officer, the Company entered into an Indemnification Agreement with Mr. Levine. This Agreement, which is in substantially the same form as indemnification agreements with directors and other executive officers of the Company, provides for indemnification and advancement of expenses to the full extent permitted by law in connection with any proceeding in which the person is made a party because the person is an executive officer of the Company. The Indemnification Agreement also states certain procedures, presumptions and terms relevant to indemnification and advancement of expenses.

Mr. Levine does not have any family relationship with any of the Company’s directors or executive officers and is not a party to any transactions listed in Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
