WOW that is tooo COOL Dave!!!

You should just call Standard Paints and ask them what they recommend you should do. I would think wiping the deck down with mineral spirits would get rid of those spots but that looks like a lot of wiping. You might have to clean the deck again and start over.

Too funny...:rotfl: I'm starting to that that damm commercial they play it soo much!

Happy Birthday Beth! :cool: :bday: :cake: :lgkick:

Yes very true Beth water and more water...I tripple plastic when covering flagstone to prevent that little pin hole that might be in one sheet. :cool:

John Well who pays for what depends on your customer.If they are willing to pay to seal both sides of a "new" fence because they paid for all it and want to protect it it's up to them. If your customer wants to do both sides and they need to talk to all the neighbors to get ok to go in there yard.Also you need to look behind the fence to see if you need to protect anything from overspray.Then you will need to get permission to get in their yard. Remind them the fence will still rot on the back side if only one side is done. :cool:

Xylene works good when i spill stain on flagstone but it's important to get to it as soon as you can.:cool:

Bleach and soap will work just find for a light cleaning3:2 or even 4:1 mixture will do :cool:

I've see them stick marks on PT wood a lot lately and tried sanding them but didn't budge. I was told by a deck builder the only way to get rid of them is to let the wood grey then they should fade.If you seal them before they fade they are there forever! I'll try to stress the stripes give the wood character :cool:

sounds like this"ipey" is spelled Ryan :cool:

Nice job Celeste and Roger :cool:

Thanks Dennis :cool: No secret to using bleach/soap you can see how it reacts to the wood when you start spraying it on.You can see how it starts to work on the wood after a little dwell time then rinse.

Here are the pics completed of this really DRY 1200 sqft deck that soaked up 20 gallons of stain.

They have to hire a landscaper and a gutter cleaner ;)

Makes a nice planter box ....:lgbounces

That is a mess there Rob that waterborne stuff is just that water! That stuff will come off easy with a S/H stripper then brighten.Wet everything down first and keep wetting.You can cover the plants with plastic till you finish with your strong chems.Uncover them if it takes a while or they will burn in the HOT sun. What stain are you use after you strip it? Brian Keating sells a good stripper @ www.deckguide.com

That was :cool: of you Scott

Hey Mike, Yes I try to enclose the arbor to prevent the overspray from getting allover the house,stone,plants etc. I'll staple the sides on the top edge of the arbor so i can spray the facia,lattice etc.by just pushing the walls outward.Then i remove the top and spray from the top down leaving the walls up to catch the overspray. Pull everything down and cut in around the house :cool:

You could try adjusting the pressure switch on the cap of the pump.Just give it a few turns clockwise while holding the triggerCheck all of your screws to make sure you are not sucking air somewhere.

Ohh yes VERY HOT inside the arbor Beth! We also alway wear a 3M respirator when inside spraying :cool:

We will pay deck builders a % for deck referals :cool:

Thanks Beth ;)

We use stapler to staple pcs. of cardboard to hold up the plastic when preping an arbor to enclose.See pic for example :cool:

No prob Full :cool: Don't make the chems too strong start off with a weak mixture and adjust acordingly on how the old stain comes off.
