Better off finding a distributor that has commercial grade chems other than HD. The right chems will get your job done more efficiently and cut cleaning time down. Again, please go to your "MY CONTROLS" and complete your signature line. House Rules.

Welcome to TGS. Please go to your "my controls" and complete your signature line. ( good place for your website as well). Again, welcome to TGS.

People, if you are new to this BBS, please take time to read the rules of this forum. You are required to have a signature line. We like to know who we are talking to, sharing info, and forms etc. with. If you come on board here and expect to just take, take, take, without us knowing who you are, then you will find some resistance from the other contractors. Above all, if you do not approve of the The Grime Scene Rules, you do have an option. Do not send me email or hate mail of your dislike to be acknowledged here. Repeat the above line to yourself just one more time. I certainly don't have time to agrue with you about keeping your identity in the dark. .... and when you do "express" your dislike to me about your signature line, tendency to "bash" falls in place real quick. By the way, bashing is not allowed either. If you don't approve of the methods I use to fulfill my duty to TGS.... well,......again, you have options. Following the rules is much faster ( and safer for your standing) and takes a heck of a lot less time than bashing someone in the end.

Great advice John, All good points.

.........and one time, at band camp.

Place your bets..... this turns to 8 pages.

You could add a link to your website for SEO results since the general public can view your company info as well as your "responses". Possibly leading to ( or diverting ) jobs from your area. You can add your social security number if you want (again) ,the general public to view it, and possibly identity theft. Height and weight are your choice to post as well. But it is not required to take part in the forums discussions, but signatures are. Again, welcome to TGS.

Don't dwell too much on it John, it happens.

Care to clue us in on your thoughts? However that is how I felt a bit the first time I met Cindy Crawford. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqQSOd9aF7A]YouTube - Cindy Crawford[/ame] Might as well send this thread in some direction.

Mr. Window, Please go to "My Controls" and complete your signature line. house Rules!!!!!

Please go to your "My Controls" and complete your signature. House rules. We like to know who we are talking to. Insurance? Are the AC vents at floor level or ceiling? Not sure how you could get water " inside " the vent itself. Most AC units have an overflow condensation type pan, and the water could be from that being full if the drain is clogged. Or did it for sure happen only when you were washing? Most people here will not share forms unless they know who they are talking with, then you will get more info than you could imagine. welcome to TGS.

Respirator John, Xylene is some potent spirits. Gloves good. Respirator even for a short time of exposure.

I have an acct. with a university in Hou. I recieved an RFP from them, and am on the vendor list within their system. The way I understand their system is that when anybody on campus needs a service, they are to search within their system via maintainance director or facilities mgr.to alert the services needed. One time I might have a bldg. the next might be flatwork. But once in their system, they do not have to request for other contractors unless they are dissatisfied with the current contractor. uh hmm....knock on wood.

Flip it. :)

Trying to keep my mind occupied on other stuff vs. my previous post and thought I would share a site for any possible aspiring singers or shower singers. Beth,Rod, Celeste, Rick, Ken, you know you wanna...... www.singsnap.com If you have a mic just choose the favorite song you want to record and sing to. ...or not. It's still kinda fun to watch the off key folks who think they are all that.

A friend of mine passed, I can't help but think of her when I hear this song. She was involved with foreign Princes and so called dignitaries who fed her tons of narcotics. She lost control. She paid the price for sure. I miss her. I somehow feel as if I failed her. Keep your eyes on your people, folks, or you may end up wiping tears. Be nosey, get involved, tell them you love them. Sad note I know, but just wanted to share. here's a vid of the song. R.I.P. Carolyn, I'll always love you. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCsfUXFmBDQ]YouTube - FC Kahuna - Hayling[/ame]

Thx bro. Better ways to find peace IMO. Just wish I could have been a better friend and be there for her.

Thanks Ken. That means alot.

Beth, do you think geographical areas, i.e. North vs. South states may have something to do with your dislike of RS. Up North you guys get snow and inclimate weather much more than we do in the south ( Texas anyways.) Does RS just not work as well up north? Or am I just way off base. I really am curious to know as I have asked this question before. It seems if the wood is continuously cold then it may stop the penetration factor. Whereas maybe with warmer climates wood expands a bit and allows penetration. Or like I said, I may just be way off base. I know Rick P. is in Jersey and they get alot of the colder weather as well but he swears by it.

Max, have you contacted any of the suppliers on this forum yet for samples as I suggested? Sunbrite supply has sample kits of RS's colors for like 8.00 bucks. Samples will give you solid answers from your very own standpoint. The vendors are happy to help as well. Give it a shot. I have to agree with Ken, in that too many products and opinions might make decision harder.

Wow Rich, Great to see you surface after a 1000 yrs. Sure do miss the "lunch box" meetings in ATL we used to go to at Sunbrite. Those were a blast ( except for Tracy's burnt burgers) lol. Great advice as well. Build up the protection over time. You know me, get it done and onto the next. Max, Rich has several good points I had not considered. You ARE in a good position to apply stain "over time". Take care.
