    Hey MudDuck I don't think he decided to get some other bids because of your price. I think it is because you told him something he didn't want to hear...the TRUTH. He does not want to admit he made a mistake with going with the Sherwin Williams Water Borne Stain in the first place. That is why he has gone back and bought the same thing again. I lose jobs now and then, too, because I will tell the truth about a product. I think the biggest problem I run into is when the homeowner has decided to go with Behr stain on their deck. Most people are open minded to my information and opinion about different stains and sealers, but to a few, anything I say only against what they have decided to use only makes me a villain to them. They see the Behr commercials on TV and then they check it out on Consumer Reports that rates it as one of the best stains on the market and their minds are made up. It does not matter to them about my real world experience with it. I’m sure he will find someone that will come along and tell this guy whatever he wants to hear. From you have described you may be better off if that happens at this point. If he decides to go with you anyway and use what you know to be the best thing for him and his deck he would probably turn out to be super critical and be looking for things to pick on because he does not want you to prove him wrong.
