Poor choice of a word, Im just having some fun while my wife watches reruns of America Idol & America Top Models Now I got to go and write up some proposals, been getting the calls like crazy. I think I'll go back to my uplifting post. But dont forget your all wrong and I'm right lol See ya all I got to go make some profits for my shareholders "ME"

I understand supply & demand but are you really appy at what you see going on. A war that was "Mission accomplished" and many are still dying to build a nation and a region thats been killing each other for over 2000 years, big biz stealing from pension funds, Lobbyist who have more say than the millions of us, illegals that are flooding our country while other try to get in legally, goverment officials all the way up to the prez who lie and will do almost anything to get reelected just to keep control, so they can send the pork to their state. Some years ago it was the dems now its the republican. Its wrong no matter who is doing it. I just happen to think Bush is usually a pro at it, until recently with all he's getting caught in. I liked his dad George senior & Reagan, I believe they really cared , George Jr I dont think does and he was a screw up rich little brat when he was younger and he's still a screw up, he spends & spends & spends and no one cares. Its our money

Very diplimatic Mike and I agree to disagree I dont know how to explain everything I just want better for all of us in the US I know we dont control the oil but I can still ask our Gov to help with what they can. I just got real mad when prices went up and The head of Exxon retires with a $450,000,000 dollar retirement after making 52 million in pay last year. It just really pisses me off JL

Fact when gas prices went up to $3 some months ago , congress had hearing and the price went down for a while I know one man GB doesnt control everything but he can with others direct thing in a certain direction. I personally cant stand George B as a president I know he's a liar and I know he for the rich more than anyone else. Thats my opinion I knew he was going to war with Iraq way before 9/11, he jusst used that tragedy to get us into Iraq and he's lied or only relied on what intel worked for him, The Dems were no better they just followed , but the did not figure anything out past the 1st 6 months and now its a mess. Does anyone remember when they said it would only cost us 10 billion dollars for he Iraq war and then the Iraq oil would pay the rest.Well there heading to 1 trillion dollars , bad estimate. It doesnt matter what they do, they lie or twist the facts. What about the CIA leak case, when Bush said he wants to know who leaked well it was him and his top people, Oh he changed a few words and picked his words carefully but he knew it was bullshit. I dont trust him and never will. It will be a better country when GB is out. What happened to fiscal conservative, this guy spends our money like he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, OH he was. True conservative republicans cant beleive what he's done with our money, Oh ya does anyone think Bush has everything/anything ready for another Katrina. We'll have to send him another tape so he can see whats going on I didnt post the Gov websights to start a big fight I just thought some might want to email their reps. I have a right to complain and I will I vote always and I dont like a lot that is going on, its all corrupt. I'm also sorry I cant shut up about this kind of stuff its just me. I might not be the smartest of the bunch but I know right & wrong and Bush is wrong for the US Mike W made you do it LOL JL

Now dont get me started about POPCORN, I just came from the Movies with my family and its big biz trying to get me where ever I go. ONLY KIDDING LOL, Popcorns more expensive than gas Had a nice time with my family. My son Joshua turned 3 today Thats my boy banging away at his Birthday party Saturday, I love that little guy, he's getting so big so fast JL

I'm sorry I always get in these debates but I feel for my fellow Americans and everyday I see people in my state that work up to 2 hours just to pay for gas to get to work. Not all people are fortunate like me and some of us. The State & federal goverment let a lot of people in my state down for generations, They havent provided good schools, they have purposely kept people down for years. Ive met many wonderful, very hard working people in this state that cant read or write and therefore cant ever think of starting their own business or cant ever have what many of us have and I dont like the fact that the poor are getting poorer and the middle clas a majority of them are having to work so much, it may be taxes but I only see a majority of the tax cuts going to businesses that are lowering the wages of our people. We nation build all over the world but our own are suffering or at least having a very rough time just getting by I'm from Boston Ma and now live in SC, Ive seen a lot of different things down here than I did up north and a lot of it isnt the fault of the person with the low paying job that barely can pay for his or her gas NOTE TO SELF - Shut up Really Really Really i wont say anymore on this subject!!!!!! Now dont get me started again or I'll start about immigration & GB & health care LOL JL The bleeding heart liberal from MA.

Man you got an answer for everything. My bad now I see the light, could you tell me where to buy a solar pressure washer and maybe a solar truck to go with it to pull my trailer. I really dont want to debate every point , but if you dont think that businesses are taking advantage ( not just good business)of the common man and if you dont think our Goverment is helping big biz more than the majority (US!!!) you can believe it. I plan on keeping the emails phone calls going to my reps until they help the majority You see they congress will have a couple hearing on gas prices and the prices will come down a little and then in months go up more. Its a game How about nuclear? Iran just wants it for electric right? Thats what I need a solar powered, nuclear, bio diesel, hydrogen 3500 psi machine. I'll be the 1st one on the block with one. Everybody to their own opinion Right! Have a good one JL

Like I said its all a game! No matter how you look at it. V

Its all a game and I wish it wasnt, thats all! But I still emailed my reps and made my opinion clear on the gas prices & illegal immigration. I vote and I want to be heard and if more of us voted and were involved maybe we could make things better & be heard. Gas prices suck, double the price in 2 years, I wish I could double the price of all the condos I do. Do a condo in 2004 for $500 a building and charge $1000 in 2006 that would be great! I know market, capitalism, free trade all that, but like i said its all just a game and 90% of the working class dont get to make the rules. I dont want to argue its just a game

There is something called price gouging, greed and just taking advantage of things. If people didnt have to work 2, 3 jobs and both parents work just to get by and if wages for everyone was increasing I'd agree, but I personally think oil companies and the middle east is just taking advantage of us, just my opinion. I have a lot of people who wont pay my rates and they do go to others for PWing, who can we go to for cheaper gas prices??????????? JL

I just got off the phone with Mike from Xterior Sales, the PSI chart will work 80% of the time, but orifice size is dependent on the machine its used on. You HAVE to factor PSI & GPM not just one or the other. For instance A 3 gpm 3500psi would use a 6 up to a 9 at the most, but a 5.5 gpm at 3500 psi should use a 13 orifice and 8 & 9 GPM machines should use a 16 usually or larger. Also over time machines can lose pressure, if they arent repacke and the orifice size you using may not work the same on a worn out machine, fix the machine or use a smaller orifice until you fix it. I also talked to Mike about some of the problems with the M5, like the clip falling out, the fan decreasing or the metall fan breaking. They are working on getting replacement parts made, A lot of the M5 is Italian made and is not easy to get replacement parts , but they are in the process of getting them. As for the clip no great answer from Mike. I use piece of coat hanger and cut & bend it and it doesnt fall out any more. I buy the upper black section off Xterior for $17 and change them out as fan decreases or metal breaks So for the PSI vs GPM debate we are all right & wrong, it depends on the machine. The distributer that sell the Xjet usually just go off the PSI chart. If you want o know for sure what size orifice you should use call Xterior then buy from who ever you want. JL

Lance, You can buy the whole upper piece the black piece w/ everything in it, the metal tabs etc. from Xterior for $17.00 I've bought several and keep spares because of the metal tabs that can break and also because over time & a lot of use the fan width decreases down. Now other dont sell that whole pece and others that do sell it for a least double the money call Xterior and tell them others have bought it for $17.00 and they will get it to you for that price. With all the use & abuse I give the M5 I change them out every 4- 8 months As for psi vs gpm If I remember I'll call Ron today and see if he can come & explain all this JL

Its amazing you mention this now, I too have just recently had the same problem on a building condo that was built about 7 months ago. Some parts of the window water beads up and then the same window different parts the water rolls off like it has Rain X on it. Its some kind of film left over from something. I ended up telling property it wasnt from my cleaning it was already there and I told them to contact window cleaning company. There were several windows like this WHat the heck is it and how do you get it off JL

Call me around 7am, we have a 1/2 a roof to do 1st thing in the morning also, guys will be hear at 7am and we'll be cleaning shortly after that. I live right at 544 & 17 bypass 446-5931 JL

Good question! I keep it off glass and if it does get on it I rinse it quick. Probably not good to put on any kind of fabric? If your brushing it on dont lay the brush on grass like I did once, burnt the grass. I'll lay it on mulch instead Ive never had a problem with Ox & overspray either its a pretty useful chem JL

More Ox at work

Ox will clean irrigation rust and some other rust stains off almost any surface. We have tons of irrigation rust around here it can get on all surfaces of houses & buildings and Ox takes care of it Check out some of the pics

Yup your right on the Ox mix my bad! Im no wood guy but the pics are showing black on the 1st pic after ox, it just doesnt look like it was cleaned off all the way. Maybe some of the wood guys could tell us ifit looks like it was cleaned enough. It might be just the type of wood. ??????? My question to wood guys & gals is pump up effective, just seems like you might not get enough product down to strip wood and it also would take a lot of exta time

Xjet for me.

I dont know wood like Roger & Celeste but I know some and as for PWing I know enough to help you if you need it and I might be able to give you a hand and throw you some residential work if you'd like. Call me Monday I have about 6 homes to do, driveways and a couple small condo buildings if your around we could show you a thing or 2 JL

Don the RM is Steve Rowletts S hydrox product and did you Xjet RM or pump up, if Xjetted you did it to way to weak. The Deckbrite is Steves Oxalic and to Xjet it its 4lbs to a 5. Pump up Ox should be about 1lb to 1 gallon of water. Looks like you went to weak Also the pics look like it wasnt cleaned/stripped enough. Was there much stain on the deck before you started and was it oil. Did the stain/wood darker up a lot when you applied RM, it should have, if it doesnt and it doesnt start to come off easy I would of applied a little more RM and then low pressure it. I'd just do it stronger. Pump up you dont always get enough product on the wood. Try Xjetting and just keep surronding areas wet. Call Steve he'll give you the right mix Good luck JL

We'll be neighbors soon, Im building a house off Forestbrook, planters creek. Biz is good If you need any info or help you can call me days 446-5931

Come on down!! Nov is 50/50 but usually in th 50's to 60's a lot of golfers, try Oct better chance of great weather Give me a call See Ya JL

I mix it in warm water 4lbs to a 5 gallon drum, yes it can be mixed ahead of time, it last for quite a long time, months, just shake it up That mix is for Xjetting you can use 2-4 lbs per 5 to spray with pump up or brush on Hey Mas, is Coventry RI near Providence, I used to do a lot of the bridges/overpasses there paint & sandblast them. Providence is a good little city had some fun there. JL
