This is correct. The T is silent in Griot's and Rupes is pronounced as though it were a two syllable word.

One Zee eye-n tset in-duss-tree rain-igger <- - careful with that last part, run it together quickly, emphasize rain. There will be a phlegm clearing roof of mouth sound on the R in the word rain.

Eins = One
Zett = Zee
so the description of a onesee was spot on.
Industry = Industrial (in this case)
Reiniger - Cleaner
I guess the Germans don't feel the need to translate the product names, the German cars we put the stuff on understand it correctly.

(Tooth pick in mouth) Here in Murica, it's pronounced roops. That "ez" should not be rolling off any Murican's tongue; Got it? (Gun burrel pointed at ya)
