They have the 12.5% too for the same price..... as I was checking it out, they want a $20.00 drum deposit too...comes out to $58 for 15 gallons ($3.88 gallon)..... not counting the shipping yet......??? ACE up here has 10% for about $3 gallon...... I need to find an IN with a pool place up here, even then I think they'll only have the 10%....... what to do? what to do?

Can I remove paint on a deck?
tropical wave replied to erovegno's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
never had to strip paint, so I can't help with your costs, but as far as the sign is concerned, leave it out there as long as the homeowner will allow it or until you need it at a different site.......good luck with the project -
Chicago has lots of conventions, lots of different options, we have MANY ins with hotels and convention/banquet halls etc near O'Hare... airfare is reasonable from anywhere as its the busiest airport in the country, for those that never been here there is a lot to do for the families, museums etc....... but it is an expensive city..... so we vote for VEGAS..lol

You folks that are with Joe, do you pay your entire yearly premiums up front or make monthly or quarterly installments?????

I have used the rubber third hand with no real problems while operating a regular gun.......The tennis ball sounds like a neat idea, as long as it has the lanyard attatched.....I just dont think I could steal a tennis ball away from the dog...

Deck Sprayer Tips
tropical wave replied to VanDiesel99's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Does that dial gun/wand work well ? Was just looking at them 10 minutes ago in the GS store...They come with the Decker, Sun Brite sells just the gun/wand, Don't know if Beth N Rod sell just the gun and tips, but they seem to be a good idea...... would like to hear more about them. -
The aluminum ramps are the way to go.......We used wood before, 2 problems a) the truck is beefy and is quite high b) when the wood is wet, which it will be from the water dripping all over it, its gets very slippery while trying to walk up that angle backwards dragging that machine....... best bet--- get a small trailer with a drop gate, itll give you more room for storage of hose, wands, chems and miscl equipment---even with the trailer, you'll use up all that room...... .02

For the folks using the M-5, if your washing vinyl, wood or brick houses, do you also rinse with the M-5 or do you change out to a 25 or 40 nozzle? Or do you just use the x-jet for the really high stuff and gutters then switch out to a nozzle for the lower areas...???

Got it................. -
I have a question guys ???????
tropical wave replied to Michael Nardoni's question in The Club House
Hey there Mike..... as long as your "business license" is from the town where your office is..(house) if you run it out of your home, your OK in Illinois for "service" type work....i.e. power washing Your state certificate allows you to perform service in Illinois you dont need a license in every suburb you do work in... like other type contractors who perform a service don't need one either, they just need to obtain the "permits" in the city they're building in... like roofers, additions etc... but, the lovely state of confusion, I mean Illinois, will change it overnight Im sure............. -
Looks good....Its gonna be sharp when it's all said and done.

Tony....if you can, tell me a little more of your ideas of TimberPro vs. HD and EFC....... pros and cons if you will (other than $$$$ which is NICE too) thinking of possibly going that way too......... -
be careful........ Wood ramps are BRUTAL when their wet... Lowes has aluminum ramps with a non skid surface..... for the price of the 2x10's, the aluminum ramp ends, the regular ramps are only a bit more expensive... I learned the hard way already !!!!
