I cleaned a house with Penofin on it yesterday. If the finish is still good. Do a test spot with a bleach mixture. Many times the decks just need to be cleaned with bleach to remove the mildew. The rosewood oil in Penifin is prone to mildew

Fast finish is Potassium Hydroxide based I have used it with great results. You must do a test spot to see it will work first.

Greg Give me a BuZ! Condo's suck. 2035580968 cell. I quoted 2 condo projects this week and the prices by other's were ridiculous.

So let me get this straight. Somebody hounds a developer of a product to make it more consumer friendly? Then He, doesn't tell anybody and you tell the customer it dries in 30 minute's and could be rained on. 5 Hours later the finish is almost gone after a rain storm.( Never happened before with RS) I have 5 decks that needed more product and service(WTW), Who's responsible? Ken Or Russel ? I figure I'm owed about 2 grand !! The best line I saw was a comment by Ken that he say's; I 'm not an expert with Wood Tux ! Let's make that Ready seal or wood care......

I think Mr Apple has a point. The internet is a problem if your an innovator and leak idea's. I stopped posting idea's or telling people what I do unless it's one on one. It's very hard to hold back and watch stupid information being giving. This media has to much power. On the other hand I have learned the most form Mr Apple's post! Roofs were one thing I new Poop about

I stripped a deck last year for an old guy who has been using Linseed oil for 30 year's on Doug fir. The wood was in great shape gut stained beyond repair (black). I told him to call me in another 30 years.

Ken< you didn't answer the question ? You were gone maybe a week ? Could you survive 6 months and do it over a couple of years in a row and survive? The Hobbyist

I have an industrial vacuum.

I use Ready Seal clear all the time. Pt wood doesn't turn grey for awhile because of the copper in the treatment.

Sit down and have a good laugh and forgetabutit ! It's only a deck ! Have a Behr or 6...

Ken, could your business survive if you were laid up for 6 months ? Thank God you have a BooBoo.........Think if you couldn't do anything for four months. No Quoting , work, nothing !! Try it it 8 times! Months of a time! And survive! Take what happened to you and multiply it 100 times!!!!! Point of views change........

Is that the "sQuirt gUN"?

Pine has sap come out it. Mahog has a white and yellowish substance come out of it. More of the deck builders fault. They can see it when building. I've never seen it to bad maybe one or two boards on a deck.

I BDA'd a Gazebo cedar roof in 30 minutes yesterday. It was a year old and ready for oil. Met the guy in a gas station a year ago. Wash house, composite deck, mahog porch, gazebo and gazebo cedar roof. 17 gallons of bleach. 4 hours. No plant life left in area !!!! LOL

Redwood is my favorite I takecare of two. One old growth and one new. I can't seem to talk the area deck builders into using it. It doesn't degrade like other woods and holds a stain and color much beter than cedar.

Thompsons Wax !

Happy Birthday Ken!!I wood probably get board of the board if you weren't on the board. So I raise a glass to your birthday!

Putting a non drying oil is working along with mother nature to prevent the wood from turning grey. That is the only object with Ipe. Putting a sealer on that cures is fighting the oils in the wood and mother nature. This creates more problems in the future . So it wood be better to use as little of a curing product on Ipe as possible so you can handle any difficulties easyer. Ipe was made to be left alone and turn GREY. Those are the happiest people. Talk to the people who spent 10 grand in 10 years sealing it and the people who paid 1000 dollars cleaning it. I have both. Then I have people who have gone through all the sealers! Mad at the world until they found me ( LOL). And now there's WTW and Flood Something. ( I am sampling both) I still like they way i do it better so far.

Something is wrong I have no problem hitting 3 stories. Make sure everything is tight and sealed. And nothing is blocking the holes.

Post the name it will make them get there act togeather.

If you use the two acids seperately. There will be a brighting variation.

I like the Plug"s from " Cork it >. com " or the 5 gallon bucket wih a shower curtain. Get up an hour early to have a cup of coffee! Deep thoughts before you leave for work! Timing is everything !The rhythmic pattern of the bowel ....movement..

Rick! Relish! What a great idea with a hotdog and bunns .......

Using two different acids on the same deck will produce a color variation .I find letting the wood sit produces the best results for more depth of product.

I have many customers named Paul U Pay Me !!
