It's time.

Tony, Cascade works :) Rod uses it on exterior windows. Real time saver. Beth -
It's time.
Beth n Rod replied to Beth n Rod's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Rod says: If you use and x jet you'll have to mix it stronger, 8 to 10 oz. per gallon to compensate for downstream injection dilution. Then rinse thoroughly. He says you shouldn't need anything else, but I have heard some guys add a little cascade to give it sheeting action for the windows. Beth & Rod -

I'll think warm thougths to the North! We still have little mounds of dirty snow here too, but hey, it won't last long in the upper 50's. :) I wish my ads started in March. Ours launch in April. Beth -
Penofin ~vs~ Readyseal 8 month test completed
Beth n Rod replied to mhpoole's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
I sure do. It's Wood Tux. It goes on with ease, without the overlaps, runs or puddles, but has a curable resin in it, that keeps the color from over penetrating. Check under "Showroom Floor" to see a sample color and read about it. It's shipping soon. Beth -

Hi Mark, Post pics for everyone if you have them. It's always good to know how things work. I'm not surprised by the results, but I would like to see pictures. Beth -
We're planning some great specials this year. Want to know what they are? Just sign up as a user on our forums. We'll email you once a month with the months specials, on things you need, when you need them. We're not just talking about HD-80 here folks, we're talking about hardware and other supplies too. And only registered members will receive or be eligable for the specials. We've asked some of you what you wanted to see and what you need. Well, it's almost time... And you don't want to miss the first mailer. The cut off to join in order to receive April's mailer is March 22nd. Don't miss out! Joining is free, and the savings...well, you'll see! Beth & Rod

Do they just want debris removed or do they want the lot pressure washed? You might want to ask that if you are not sure. Beth

HD-80 melts 5 coats of Sikkens Cetol Dek in Vegas!
Beth n Rod replied to Beth n Rod's topic in Chemicals & Safety
Same strength (not even full strength by the way) on ALL coats. The 4th and 5th coats we applied a little heavier, it needed a second application. Beth :) -

Here's Rod rinsing the pallet during the demo. -
Yep! We're going to be holding a demo here in our hometown, Germantown, Md. (if we have to strip wood in the garage we can still do it) It's set for Saturday, March 22nd. The demo is noon, and lunch will be served. For those interested, I'll be holding seminars that day as well, with Marketing at 8:30 and Consultative Sales at about 1 pm. The cost is $55.00 per seminar or both for $99.00. Space is filling, and seating for the seminars is limited so don't wait. Contact me for further details. Beth:cool:

Wood Cleaning
Beth n Rod replied to misskriss's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Ordering HD-80 or any of Extreme Solution's products is easy! You can call toll free to 1-877-H2O-WASH or go to www.thegrimescene.com and click to Shop Online. Beth :) -
I had upgraded to 2.2.9, so the programmer must have upgraded us to 2.3.0 to fix the problem I had during the process of upgrading. Good eye! I missed that. Beth

Thank you, Mark! :) Glad to see you stopped by, and hope to see you here again soon! Beth

Cleaning work at construction sites beyond pressure cleaning
Beth n Rod replied to Chuck Richard's topic in Construction Cleaning
Hi Henry! We just got back in town from Las Vegas. Saw your email. If I don't talk to you today, will try to catch up with you tomorrow. Beth ;) -
Hi, I'll check with Extreme Solutions to see it they have set the launch date. I doubt it's March, since two new products are releasing this month, and releasing a third would be too much. Stay tuned. Beth

What are the pro's and con's of bleach if you're washing aluminum or vinyl siding? How about Bleach vs. limonene or a similar house washing agent? Beth

I'm not a detective, but sometimes I just...well, know....call it women's intuition.

The Pro's and Con's of bleach...
Beth n Rod replied to Beth n Rod's question in Residential Pressure Washing
Try the Citralic. It's a blend of oxylic and citric, and is wonderful. See you in a week!!!! -
Gee, you guys could meet here at our place on the 22nd for the product Demo Day (and maybe more that day too??) and John could take it from there since Chuck will be here?? Just an idea. Beth

Make sure you do a thorough mopping before you apply the next layer of wax to remove any of the dust/dirt created by the scrubbing. Beth

Marketing your janitorial business
Beth n Rod replied to dlamontm98's topic in Janitorial & Home Cleaning
Hi Derek, There are lots of wonderful things you can do. First of all, do you have any presentation materials? Liturature? A brochure? You'll need one of those. Also, you need business cards. The phone book is a good place to start, but be prepared to go out on foot into Dr.'s offices, etc. If you call, they're too busy. Go in and visit face to face and get a few momnets of their time. When you go in, eyeball the place for dirt. Find areas that might be lacking good service. Ask them if they are happy with their current company, and then ask if you can leave in formation with them on file if they say they are. Make sure your liturature has before and afte photos of any kind of cleaning work you have done where you can show dramatic results. I hope this helps. I would spend more time with you here, but am on my way out of town to a convention tomorrow. I'll be back online next Friday. Our members will help you any way they can. Beth -
Hi, And WELCOME to The Grime Scene! :) First off, do us a favor and change your profile to give your name and where you are. We're like a family here. :) Use the blue pad to remove the top layer of the finish and any build in dirt or heel marks. Now if you are stripping the of course you need the black pad and the appropriate stripping product. Again, welcome! :) Beth & Rod Administrators
