  1. Love the green two-tone! great new ideas for color scemes :)

    You really did do a great job around the balusters. They look like wood - no problem stripping around them?

    I was going to strip the spindles but they didn't budge. So i just stripped most i could (2x stripping with the max at probably 12-13 oz) then the makita and osborne went to work. i did the top and bottom rail and post then applied another coat of green to cover up the over spray and such. Over all, about 20-23 hrs into the job.


  2. So I was out on a job finishing up a big cedar deck when I check my phone and see 3 missed calls and 2 voice mails. At first I was thinking I’m in trouble or something but turns out its some lady who almost sounds like she is crying asking if I could wash her house. So I call her up and there was a storm that went through their town and the insurance was paying for her house to get washed before the guy comes out to assess the damage. Got the call Tuesday evening, had it finished in 2 hours on Wednesday (my day off). Who knew you could get $550 for a house wash? Oh it was a referral as well!


  3. i'm kinda mad at sunbrite right now for throwing a curve ball and using this R & L carriers company thing...They left almost a grand worth of stain at the end of drive and didn't even notify us, the driveway is probably 300ft long. They didn't even leave a note on the door or anything for a signiture like fedex or ups do when they tried delivering in the middle of the day (probably going to leave it at the end of the driveway again)... also deliveried 4 days late.

    But anywho, I'm also a fan of the Seal of Ready and my deckster as well. Is there a way to let sunbrite know that i do not want signiture conformation when you order or do they not even look at the messages?


  4. What do you guys think of the Black Night belt drives at sunbrite? I don't think im going to get a skid or trailer for a while, but would like something to speed up the house washing. I have an excell right now which is 2.2 gpm or something and runs like a dream (5 yrs old and still kickin).

    Still waiting for the deckster to get here as well. It's getting to the point where my job is getting in the way of scheduling (Menards building materials), so i think im going to start marketing to make my decision easier.

    Any who, those washers seem to be the same price as the one at northerntool, but i hope much better performance.

    Thanks, JL
