  1. Guys, I'm in need of some advice. We are looking at 'renewing' some concrete curb and sidewalks for a streetscape project in the St. Louis area. We have areas where the concrete is solid, but stained and we would like 'match' it to the adjacent new concrete. The concrete is generally stained to an rusted iron like finish - dull gray/brown. We were hoping to soda blast the old, but wanted to know if there was a better way? Prevailing wages costs per square foot (area) and average rate per day would also be helpful. If you need more info, please post! Thanks in advance.
  2. What is the difference between the Woodrich and Woodtux formulas? In reading some of the posts, it's my understanding that Woodrich is essentially an oil thinned version of Woodtux. If so, why offer a thinned version? Am I missing something?

    Russell, Thanks for the advise. I'll probably let the ipe 'season' until fall. I plan on sanding in the next week or so after I have finished plugging. The finishing process doesn't seem too bad. I've 'experimented' for years with different finishing techniques on woodworking projects. While I've messed around with some exotic hardwoods in the past, this will be the first time with ipe and with an outdoor finish. I'll be sure to give you a call. I will probably pick up to avoid the shipping charges. Thanks again.

    Okay Russell, that being said what would you recommend for an advanced DIY'r on a newly installed Ipe deck. I see you are in the area do you sell to non-contractors? Phil Collinsville, IL

    Ken, So I guess you are saying the Woodtux is a more topical solution while the Woodrich is penetrating. The ultimate question is if both give the same appearance, why use the Woodrich if the Woodtux lasts twice as long. Thanks, Phil
