  1. I would rather have friends in competition with me than enemies. I will give advice and help to anyone who asks and get calls from all over the country. I see so much bad work in the paver sealing biz that if I can keep someone from having a ruined paver deck by telling a competitor how to do it right, I will. I will tell them how to price also because everyone already undercuts me so what the hell. That has worked well because many competitors have brought up their pricing. They figure if this fool can get that kind of money, they can too! So we all win.


  2. so I think I figured out the problem here. the last batteries I had that were marine starting battery is not deep cell cycle batteries. I don't know what the batteries I had from napa were, but I probably went in 1 day and said I need a marine battery and that's what they handed me, an MS, and I've had trouble ever since. I just never looked to see the difference.

    so hopefully problem solved? We'll see...


  3. I have had a run on bad batterys for my spray cart for over 18 months now that just doesnt seem to want to come to an end. I bought NAPA marine batteries for years. all of a sudden beginning in 2011, they started to crap out. sometimes 2-3 months, sometimes 1 month. I go to recharge them and get a "bad internal cell" warning. They finally said they werent going to exchange them anymore so I went to Sams club. The Duracell marine batteries seem to be no better and I need to exchange the 2nd one in 4 months.

    Any one have similar problems?

    Again this is on a spray cart so no charging system.


  4. Ok so the spray system is 500 dollars, you buy the sand in a home depot type of place?

    How would you price this? Measure the square footage and figure the amount of seal you would need

    I would imagine and what do you charge for labor ? It looks simple and not to labor intensive as far looking at the video

    Chazz, You can make your own system with any diagraphm pump. Dont spend 500 bucks ot it. I price all with SF pricing. It is labor intensive, with the sanding taking the bulk of the time.

    Your welcome to call me if you are thinking of getting into it.
