Try cutting that with Warm Honey Gold at 50%. (test in a small amount before you mix the whole enchilada) Beth -

We have pails on order, and as soon as we get them, we'll open one and test it on a few surfaces. Should be really easy to tell from that. If it's back to being like "peas and carrots" we'll know within a few hours. I believe it will be. If anyone is going to have both pails in their shop, just mark them ( I know, you already thought of it) so you know which is which. Beth :cup: -

I'm saying percarb is gentler on the wood. Beth -

Is anyone doing a PWNA Clean Across America project this year? Share it with us all! We have a small one coming up, it's a front porch and rear deck on a small building (converted home) that acts as an office for those who are less fortunate. Beth

Percarbonate to kill the mildew... not bleach....then neutralize/brighten...then prep ( sand if needed lightly) then seal. We use Wood Tux. Beth -

Holy **** we have another chemist in the house!!! :lol: Good information but for a novice like me, I wouldn't like to experiment any more than I already do with chocolate milk. :) Rod!~ -

My responses in blue: I would recommend calling the mfr. for yourself and finding out why. There are certain ingredients that are probably not compatible with the formulation in regard to the wet technology or the biocides. Other than that, we are talking about increased probability of spontaneous combustion which as it is, is already an issue from reports we have heard. Rod!~ -
There is a part two coming up for the round table article in the July issues, then there will be a couple more articles on education after that, covering more formal types. Beth

Do you really think a couple of cups of spirits to a fiver will make that much difference in terms of dilution? Now applying it to a wet deck or cutting it substantially with water, I would agree with you. Beth -

Wood tux on fences?

WTW on fences performs quite well. We use it on almost everything we do. Rod!~ -

If the drier doesn't get you the cure time you want, you can wipe it down with mineral spirits. All the rewashing we have done was pre-japan drier. Since then we have not had to do that. If you have an airless, give it a go. Beth -

We have been getting normal drying times using the airless. For the sake of comparison, we have been in the 80's-90's with 35-70% humidity recently. Rod!~ -
