    Well I have a good one for you guys. My full time gig was a police officer until I was wrongfully accused of something I wish not to disclose. So now I have turned to powerwashing for the mean time until my case goes to trial and god willing a jury will not find me guilty and set me free. Once that happens I will still stay in the painting and powerwashing biz and try to capitalize the market and take the city that I work for money$$$.

    KC I had a similar situation this summer with a solid cabots that we had to remove, it was extremely tough. The solid will not come out as well as a semi. You will have to take your time in preperation using hd-80 or f-18 boost. The deck we did it on was a 1200 square foot and just took forever. I can say that after the job was done it really did not like theway the deck came out. Mind you the semi we put on it was not our choice. It was the homeowners. With something like of this nature I try to reccommend a solid to the customer it really makes it easier on your back.

    Hi all im workin on a deck right now that has Cabots bluestone solid stain. I have talked about this in a previous post and now im doing the job. After applying the f-18 and at least 15-30 minutes of dwell time I was able to remove as good portion of it. But im having some trouble with a few cabots streaks that are left on the deck. I dont want to go anymore than 600 psi or get any closer to the deck to ruin the wood. (pressure treated) I have ordered the hd-80 and is not here in time due to u.p.s. Can anyone put some input as to how I can get these cabots bluestone streaks out that the pressure washer will not remove.

    I also thought about using a square sander with a 60 grit paper on the bottom , what do you guys think?

    Well was offered to do a job in town on a 1100 sq ft deck. Deck looks nice but it was not well taken care of. After looking at the deck and asking the home owner what type of solid stain is on your pressure treated deck. He says Cabots Blue stone solid paint. OHH NO I said to myself, how the heck do I get this stuff off.

    Now im wondering if my f-18 will stripp this stuff of. Anyone with a good idea on this one. Maybe another type of stripper to remove the cabots ?

    Hey all its been a while since my last post. But I have come accross a problem with a cedar wood home. I was asked today to powerwash the front of the home only were mildew has set in from no direct sunlite. The house seems to have sherwins woodscapes on it in a light brown color.

    I am a little curious about washing the home because I use the f-18 product and f-8 brightener. I am afraid to apply the f-18 which may remove the solid color stain that is on the house. Please let me know what your thoughts are and how should I tackle this job.

    2nd question: I also have a friend that has a mahagoney wooddeck and applied the austrailian nat timber oil. He says that it looks nice on one side but on the other it looks patchy. What do you think has happened to his work. His wood was never washed and the deck is only 3 weeks old.

    Thank to all

    Het guys its been a while since my last post, thats because I have been busy with a few decks. I tried to load the pics as a attachment but it says the pic is to big. I am not tosure how to compress it so if you vets are intersted in seeing how my 1st few jobs went please send me your emails I would love to get veteran feedback. Its the only way im going to learn.

    Now next topics stripping paint of a pressure treated deck? Humm have that job coming up next week im sure the pressure washer will remove some of it but not all I am only going 700 psi on the deck I dont ruin it. Any suggestions as to what to use. I have the f-18 but not the hd-80 any suggestions?

    Thanks to all that help me get better in this biz. Ohh see my marketing post also need help with signs
