I used about 8 gallons, very easy to spray and very little back brushing, that old wood was just soaking it in.

That was Gold, maybe it was the sunlight,

"So i take it you liked the Gray Away ?"
Loved it and whats more important is, my customer was over the moon, good stuff

it never ceases to amaze me how people let their homes get in such a state, I noticed the Christmas lights and the Easter decorations, were The 4th of July decorations in the back?

Stuff happens out of anyones control- Did anyone finish the deck ?Thats cold dude, even from you I would expect a little bit better!

Well, I just called Sherwinn williams and it appears that it does need to be stripped, they got the bid at just under $2500, so we'll see, around here most my $1 sq ft bids get low balled by about half and I can't make no money doing decks at that price.

This is a big deck with a couple hundred ft of spindle railing, a spa, a gazebo, tri level, lots of lights , I won't turn it down, but I will price it so that if I get it, I wont regret it.

Thanks Andy, I got to tell you, if this deck needs stripping, I don't want it and I will price it accordinly.

Does anyone know, I went to the Cuprinol website, but it's down for reconstruction and the Shewin Williams website isn't worth doodly squat.

Has anyone dealt with this before, does it absolutley need to be stripped if I'm reapplying the same thing?

So I get through cleaning windows at my customers house last friday and ring the doorbell to collect my check, the husband comes to the door and writes the check while engadging me in conversation, I put the check in my clipboard thank him and leave.
The next morning my wife gets ready to go to the bank to deposit the check when she notices that the guy had written $394 in the small space, but then had written out Three hundred and 00/94 c
The bank will go with whats actually written out, so i call the customer and the wife answers, shes the one who actually hired me and I knew the husband was peed off about it, I explain to her what happened and then drive over to exchange checks.
You could tell she was embarrassed and he of course didn't come to the door, I have no doubt that he tried on purpose to rip me off.
Moral of the story, read dem checks.

Man, I hate jumping in on these threads, but I am fixing to take the next step and commit myself and my dollars on a hotwater setup so I will be looking to get some commercial accounts, if for nothing else to make sure I can meet the payments, this time of year is no time to rely on homeowners, so if I could request some copies?
Thanks Gav

Well, i've got too much English in me I guess, you know how us Brits hate change:)

Just wondering, i liked the old one, but i'm sure I'll get used to this one.

I have to agree with Ryan, about this time of year I'm usually pretty depessed, especially when I lose a quote to someone who is just making beer money.

Maybe I'm just easily impressed, but this baffled the hell out of me!

Seriously scary stuff!

My bad, it's 90 day commercial warranty and 2 year homeowner warranty, though I don't know how they would know what you used it for!

Check out the Lowes unit, I'm pretty sure it said it carried a two year warranty for commercial work.

"Home units = Homeowners light duty (with some grades a little better than others)"

Yeah, and i didn't skimp, two coats, like i said, the customer was estatic, I'll be in tomball at some point today, so I'll just drop it off, I need to make me a sample board like that, I'll have to get with you and see if i can scrounge a couple of brush fulls of each color
