    Kevin, I'm using behr... no clue how it will perform over time...

    Actually started out to use what was claimed as superior product but was not in stock, so I went to the big box and got what was, for a rush job.

    So far, all I can report is that it applies easily.

    abt 200sqft per gallon.

    Would be a nice looking fix for the stains shown here.

    If a downside becomes apparent, I'll post it.

    If I was called to a home that appeared clean to me, I would undoubtedly comment so, to the owner, and ask them at the same time what it was that concerned them.

    I would wash the house, and give particular attention to their expressed concern, if any.

    Even if done the week before by someone else, it could benefit fom a wash and rinse w wax used in rinse.

    I was taught "Do not treat people the way YOU wish to be treated, treat them the way THEY want to be treated."

    Everyone has differing standards.

    Perhaps there is something unseen they are concerned with.

    I can not see or feel bacteria and germs and may not notice odors.

    A fresh soap & bleach smell IS clean, to many.

    Some folks just want to KNOW things are done right and in good order.

    If they are willing to pay for service, they should have what the ask for.

    I would suspect that it would not be too hard to make.....

    Hello Carlos,

    Perhaps "not hard", but I'd say pretty difficult.

    Man, there's a LOT of cuts in that wood !

    I suspect we cannot see the true quality of craftsmanship in the work.

    Do you SEE any fasteners ?

    I have various wood items, in the past... can't sell 'em for a profit.

    And I've tried production techniques and also free wood !

    Do you work with wood, Carlos?

    Ken obviously has a well thought out system !

    My 2c comes from a biz network group that included a printer and bulk mailer.

    Go to bulk mailer guy 1st.

    He will advise what size is effective and give ideas on areas.

    Bulk mailer usually has favorite printer and will send you to him.

    At printer you can see what his requirements are for cost effective.

    Then you can implement the KEN system!

    Purpose of a contract is to allow everyone to know what shall happen for a specific price.

    If you do not perform accordingly, there are consequences. No pay.

    You may attempt to re-negotiate, and offer explanation of your inexperience to the client. They may be good natured and honest and see you have underestimated their project. If they can see you have done quality work in other areas, they may agree to an increase in costs.

    Never-the-less, you are bound by your contract.

    All you can do is the best you can do.

    I have found Muriatic Acid at Lowe's in the painting section for under $10 a gallon.

    Sorry, I didn't see how old this post was.

    There's a lot of good information if you sort through the old posts..

    Wait 'til you find the awesome log cabin in Montana!

    I put in a reply just in case someone answers back.

    Great looking place. It would be really good to work up there.

    ....well, to have steady work up there!
