These searches will get you some of FTC regulations/guidelines you have to consider too...

Google is great isn't it? Thanks

So far looks good, finding some interesting stuff:

Can I mention a competitor’s product by name or show the product in my ad?

Yes, so long as your ad is truthful and does not mislead or deceive consumers. You should avoid subtleties that may be viewed as misleading. For example, if you and your competitor make "regular" and "extra" strength cleaning products, you should be sure to compare like products. And when comparing your detergent to a competitor, you should not exaggerate the relative ineffectiveness of the competitor by darkening a stain so that it appears more clearly on TV or in a photo.
