So what is the zamboni looking vehicle, John? Alexy, you nailed it !!!! Being 50 plus and still being this physical is a plus with the curse. Staying in shape, .......... longer to heal.

An untrue fact actually. You can get a higher concentration of SH from a dedicated roof pump. Xjet will always cut down the strength of the SH because of the water that draws it. That's fact..... You will never get full strength of SH from xjet.

Xjet closet. That's funny man. It will get you through a roof or two. But you can get a dedicated pump with higher concentrations that work faster if your volume picks up. Just depends how fast you wanna go. Heck I have used my deckster for roof cleaning. Not recomended but doable.

Yep that was meeeeeee!!!!!! Carol Alt, wow that adds some weight to the clientele list. ok .... back on topic..... Cindy's rump..... I mean, yeah the xjet is great. I love mine!!

John, in my expieriences, "Pay to Play" has always been around. It is just rising to the surface a bit more nowadays as every single penny counts in a company's budget. ( or they are beefing up their petty cash fund for employee bonus') In order to play onstage at the whiskey-a-go-go in LAX, you have to pay, then sell your tickets. Seems STUPID sometimes as it can literally break a service company's account ( or a band's travel expenses budget, and I speak from experience). What you describe is similar to being "exclusive" in the national contractors directory. Pay to play. To me, a service contract would be more viable though as you "lock" into sustaining future work with that firm. I want to know when we are all going to start charging for estimates? This "Free" crap is for the birds man. We have to offset these expenses somehow. There truely is a measurable amount of loss when doing 10 estimates a week for free. Granted there is a return, and it would be nice to land them all. That's not always the case. Expensing the estimates is cool but leaves little in your pocket. It has been pounded into our heads (by the man) since we were children that money makes the world go round. To an operational degree that is somewhat true. However that has also trained people to be money mongers and implement stupid surchrges of every sort. Just think in terms of extra baggage that has to be c hecked for a fee. What's next, the air we breathe?

ok, you got me John, I have been talking about my xjet all these years, but it was really code about Cindy's rump. Busted!!!!!!!!

Been saying it for years, just didn't know anyone were reading my post'. ( snicker)

LOL. I hear their coffee can be found no where else in the world. Maybe I will catch one of them on an "open mic" night.

Amsterdam= Sept.

Try some Bakers. I have had really good results in constant moist environments. We are constantly at 85% humidity or higher in 95 plus degree temps. Granted it should be applied twice initially, but maintainence is basically the same as RS.

Cool Al, It's actually a Stearman Bi. Nice resto he has. Sounds like a great customer, to let you fly with stick vs. yoke. I know that words really don't do the experience justice. Bi planes are a different world altogether. The feeling never leaves and once you get the "fever" you will own or build your own someday.

Happy Birthday.

Great work Shane.

Welcome, Please complete your signature line. House rules. Thx.

Feels better when it quits hurting. At least you have the pros here for all the pointers.

Russ at Southside in KY. has Lemon Ade to mask the smell.

I wasn't around in the early 1900's ( despite what some say). Kerosene and deisel were used to preserve wood fences and the like. Even tar and "white wash" ( which I believe is just white paint to veneer the wood).

Hey 'los. how are ya?

I love my xjet.

Every nail........ wham...... right on the head bro. Well put. Very well put !

That's good news. Glad it wasn't the gout man. That means old age is creeping up fast. I wonder if we could install a "show us your injury" category in the directory. It could possibly "thin the herd" of newborns or show the potential for injury. Yay Pain !!!!!! ( Hey Maybe we could call it Yay Pain !!!!! )

Yea I know you been having trouble with your foot besides that. All I can say , and this will really help......... "Feels better when it quits hurtin' " Yay Pain !!!!!

Hey, this thread could very well be a learning tool for others to not do something stupid like this. Really!!!! I take all the credit, helpers are worthless this year. Yay pain !!!!

Rick, Ive had both types now. I can say that the angle I hit my arm at, I was lucky. However, ( at that angle) I still love my xjet over hydroxide burns anyday. Different angle would be a different story. That was just a graze. I'm an (X) EMT and that training came in handy. Quick sleeve wrap and back at it. Yay pain !!!!

Wish I could take credit for it but my buddy Tom Hanks came up with it........... Wiiiiiiiiiilllllllllsssssssooooonnnn
