F 18 Best Wood Stripper...
flimmy replied to Rfitz's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
I have used the F18 MAX and it works great. I will be doing a deck this weekend and have some pic's to post along with dwell times. -
Scott , 1 house was 300'( length of all sides) x 1.5 story's and it didn't use all the 5. They come clean and I've never had any complaints. Alot of my customers even refer there friends and relatives. I do use hot (120-140 deg ) water in washing and rinsing. I use hot water for everything but wood.
-
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I can wash a good sized 2 story vinyl house with 2 gal of 12% and 1-2 qts of F13 and the rest water in a 5. Then X-Jetting it at 20 to 1 and yes it turns out nice and clean.
-
most of it , but he said some areas are 3 stories , so it may not do it all.
-
Ken , I was thinking the 220 gals of 12% was a little high too. Even if you bump up the 12% a little 220 is way too much IMO. Do you think you could get all the parts that require a lift done in one day ?

Scam , they will say that for your helping them buy whatever they will send you $xxxx more. Just cash the money order and send the stuff and the rest is yours. Well the check or money order is no good.

Happy Birthday Rod!!!!!

Sounds like they realy want Fleet Wash to do the work so they can have just 1 company to pay. I hope not , but the way I read it the little guy will never see any on the work.

Removing glue residue on box truck??
flimmy replied to John T's question in Residential Pressure Washing
K1 or diesel will work. Put it on a rag wipe it on let dwell for 10-20 min's and it should wipe off -
Adrian , great job :D btw how do you like your x-jet ?
-
Talk to the builder about getting in early in the constrution to do the basement. Go to other new home sites and see what is being done , maybe even ask a builder what they do about it.
-
atleast diesel is the same a reg gas now. I have a Dodge w/ Cummins
-
Alan , my guess is the concrete has some mud stains on it.

Doesn't the basement have a sump pump in it already ? Use a surface cleaner if you have one. It will help with the water staying on the floor and not spraying all over the place. You can also use a shop vac that has a garden hose outlet that pumps the water to recover the water. I'm guessing your not worried about the real recovery of the water just the removal from the basement. Here is the vac I have http://www.shopvac.com/web/products/ultrapump.shtml

What to mask with
flimmy replied to Chappy's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
plastic sheet or blue tarp. You could nail it to the under side of the deck. Nail it to the board thats against the wall. If you are worried about it even with that tape some of the clear plastic right to the door under the tarp. -
Extreme Powerwashing set-up makeover
flimmy replied to John T's topic in Tools, Equipment & Basic Maintenance
John , I decided to build something a little bigger than that. It has a chem tank just for 12% and a water tank that should be able to let the machine run for at least 8hrs. lol -
Burner to roof clearance for an enclosed trailer
flimmy posted a topic in Tools, Equipment & Basic Maintenance
For those that have a hot water pwer in an enclosed trailer and do not have it vented through the roof what is the distance from the burner top to the roof ? I just bought an enclosed trailer and don't want to cut a hole in the roof. It's a 6x12 with 7' inside height. I will have 40+ " from the burner top to the roof. I am going to put sheet metal inside on the roof to help with any heat just above the burner. It also has a roof vent that I will open when the rig is running along with the side and back doors. Thanks, Scott -

Jon , thanks for the pic's I like the vent to the burner. Thats a great idea , it should keep the heat from directly hitting the roof. -

john let me know when you want to sell . I know of a few off road boards that you can try and sell in on. They are always looking for good trailers -
I got some F18 MAX from Bob a few weeks ago and have been using it with great results. Here is a deck that I stripped of CWF . It had 2 coats that were about 2-3 yrs old. The owner is not sure yet on what to put on it so I don't have any finished pic's yet. The F18 MAX was mixed at 3 oz per gal. and was left to dwell for about 10 min.'s.

F18 MAX again
flimmy replied to flimmy's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Alan , it was applied with a pump up sprayer because of how small the deck was. Beth , it just melted off , no cleanup around the deck was needed :D btw thanks I said the dwell was 10 min.'s but I dout it was that long.
