    As for you Part-timers & Fulltimers who do take your work seriously and don't want to be treated like "2nd class citizens" you can always join the groups I belong to. The PWNA www.PWNA.org & the PWRA www.Pressurewashingresource.com

    In both of these groups the big factor here is you both have all the benefits these groups offer once you join and your treated with class & dignity. Your also treated equally.

    You won't see any leaders in these groups acting bizaar on the net and showing anytype of unfair favoritism to their members.

    Maybe one day you can become a Fulltime Powerwasher or maybe you still will be successful in 2 jobs like many Part-Time Powerwashers have been. The PWNA & The PWRA won't be judging you any differently and they will also accept you because they care and they want you to succeed in whatever direction you decide to take.

    These two groups act very professional which is what you want from any organization or association you end up joining who consider being professional is a way of life when your in business. They also accept fireman,cops etc etc and they don't judge them either. Judging people is not the business model of either of these two groups. Their business model is to help you become more successful no matter if you stay part-time of become a larger fulltime business cause you can be highly successful in both.

    Good luck on your choices and ask around before you before you join anything to get a better idea on the direction you want to go.

    STOP JOHN.

    LET IT ALONE.

    LAST WARNING.

    You are baiting people. No more means no more FOR EVERYONE.

    Many people are looking for a product that will last longer on Ipe but the problem lies in the formulations that do tend to color shift with age.

    This creates the problem of needing to strip it each time maintenance is performed because what has aged on the deck will not match with

    what comes out of the can.

    We have been Armstong stains for this very reason. Everytime you wash it, the color comes off mostly but what remains in the wood is just the non-drying oils and it helps to keep the wood from developing cracks.

    Problem is drying time and absorption can be uneven on some grades of Ipe.

    I add a dryer to help facilitate a quicker set up on decks where this has been a problem.
