  1. Which direction do I go???

    first off do you have the money to get a truck "just for pressure washing"? This mean's insurance,plate's,reg.,a place to keep it,ect.... If you use a pick-up and trailer you can still use the pick-up as your daily driver. I see your in fla. That place for some reason has the largest amount of theft's of pressure washing equipment. Open rig's are easy target's. The 2 rig's for wood work is the best. One for cleaning and one for finnishing.
  2. sealer cost

    just click "store" on the top of this page.
  3. Traffic Tickets

    that pic is from a bust in calif. where they did not use water re-claim at a gas station.
  4. Traffic Tickets

    the refund check you recieve has a date on it. It must be cashed in [x-amount] of day's. After that date it's void. This automaticly trigger's the computer to finnish the transaction. Your still busted.
  5. The games of our past

    blackjack gum can still be had. The flash bulb's i can remember in the ash try because if you stepped on on one it would burn your foot on x-mas morning. We went to the flash STICK'S that had 10 flash's per stick.[very modern]. The high beam switch was on the footwell up on the left. The key switch was on the dash. Credit card's were going to destroy the USA and ive seen the inside of a family BOMB SHELTER. Later to become the best makeout spot in town. I remember my fisrt bike with a BANNANA SEAT and a shifter. SCHWINN was THE BIKE. cANDY WAS GETTING NAMED BY BASEBALL PLAYER'S. If you blew out on the candy cig's the powdered sugar would get pushed out and look like smoke. Filtered cig's were for women. Beer could be bought at the bar and was poured from the tap into paper container's. The local hub was the barber and the ice cream stand. Newspaper's were delivered on bicycle and you had this huge set of bag's that you swung over the handle bar's. I went to church. I had to be home 5 min after the street light's came on. My first skateboard had clay wheel's. My rollerskate's had metal wheel's. The only sled we had was a FLEXIABLE FLAYER. The drug store was also a place to get food and ice cream [that was fast food]. A SODA JERK was a proud job because you did'nt have to del. newspaper's in the rain. I caught the tail end of the good ol day's. Going to ringling bros and barnem and baily circus was the highlight of my year. Also the first time i was the AIR SHOW. Idid learn to swim in a pool not a creek. lol.
  6. Hi BETH

    beth on PWNA BBS their was a thread that was posted in fleet washing. Their are some re-print's of some great artical's on ACID'S and FLEETWASHING. I think it would be great to post them in our library. "wanting to learn more" is the thread on pwna just my 2 cent's worth.
  7. Great News of the Day!

    if ANYONE was going to get their first, it would be as you see it in ALEN'S pic. Only exception might be MICOSOFT. "our burger's are out of this world" No gravity. No need for muscel. All tender choice meat. "for people that like to eat light" "enjoy a rootbeer FLOAT" "sun grilled" Well someone show me a pic from earth to the moon showing me we really were their. What would happen if someone really did prove we did'nt land on the moon? What IF president CARTER did have sexual relation's with monica? What if the CIA shot KENNEDY? Would you tell anyone that a creature from outerspace probed you if you could'nt prove it? What if they did'nt put more patato chip's in the bag and just added air to a larger bag and charged you more?[yes they do that]. Do you know when the ad is written "could save you up to 50%" still mean's NOTHING. "COULD" mean's nothing. P.T. Barnem had problem's with customer's staying in his tent of odditie's too long. They would just hang out to long to get new customer's inside. So the last door on the tent said "SEE THE EGRESS" and people walked right thru the door. It lock from the inside. EGRESS MEAN'S EXIT. Their is a sucker born every min. What if viagra was just a sugar pill? Would you still use it JON? What i dont get is why they made it for men? If i were to invent a drug it would have been for the woman. All you have to do is invent a pill that LISTEN'S and dose "honey do's"
  8. Great News of the Day!

    Listen, i was cracking wise about the towel head and elvis but i really dont think we had a man walk on the moon. We were in a space race with russia and they were winning. Month's before we landed on the moon we had way too meny problem's with the whole NASA program to go that far that fast. Please post the web site that differ's with my opinion. I have never ever herd of anyone on earth being able to see any real sign of us landing on the moon with a telescope. I would love to see that. If it's that easy why are we not landing their again and takeing core sample's. I want to know what kind of cheese it's made of? Do you think their is a BIBLE CODE that unlock's mysteries? Do you really think that guy on TV talk's to dead people? Do you think NOSTERDOMUS was/is a fake or is he really a profit? By the way SANTA is a SPIRT. AND I HOPE HE LIVE'S IN ALL OF US. So yes he's real. Without hope you have nothing.
  9. Great News of the Day!

    I think elvis had enuff money that he now live's on the moon. They keep selling his record's so he can still stay their. Dont they sell towel head candy bar's? I also need a pic taken from earth ,of a pic of the american flag on the moon. An amature one. $750,000 and live's in a hole in the ground. Now that's what you get for for trying to put out a hit on the president's dad. Funny he was eating american food and had american money. You guy's can take a joke, cant you.
  10. Great News of the Day!

    alive is good new's? That $750,000 wont begin to cover the cost's of him being alive. Now you have all the problem's with a FAIR trial. The government told us he had a bunch of weapon's of mass destruction. Now they tell us he is the REAL sadam. We have all seen the imposter's. I love the USA. I believe in god. I believe in free speech. I dont believe everything i see on the new's. I am glad he's caught. If it's him. I wish they just found his MAR"S BAR"S eating face with a buillet from his own gun in it. Some she ite with a fricken bomb is going to try and get him released. It wont be the first time. Remember the olympic's? Some people still think we had a man walk on the moon. Now that's funny.
  11. it also help's to have a wide spray pattern 40 deg for me
  12. only problem i see about this set-up would be the that it circulate's the mix. I would need to either never let off the trigger or remove DAWN from my house wash. Skip the backpack and mount the pump to a 30 gal drum on a handcart.
  13. i was thinking about housewash more then deck stuff. Degreaser for flatwork,high volume stuff. For your use im sure it's fine. Nothing bad was intended. I wish someone would come up with a mini roller pump that can handle any type chem and be run with a weed wacker moter.
  14. reg the pressure with the tip size's not the reg. You want volume of water and as little pressure as needed. The right chem also help's.
  15. ive run a marine battery on my skid since it was new 4 year's ago. i charge it after the winter to be safe but never really had to. p.s. 12 gal aint much but if it's what you need then great.
  16. if your retired and the market start's to dip. You might get scared and take all your money and put it into bond's. Very safe bond's. Then the market dip's lower. Then the next guy get's scared. and so and so on. stock's are gambling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no matter how you slice it. If your useing your liveing money money to gamble. Your crazy. Some people have 401's AS THEIR ONLY RETIREMENT. As in full time pressure washer's and most other self employed people. They are going to need that money. I have a great union job but 1 year after retirement i loose my benofit's. I'll need my 401 just to cover what medicade wont. If their is even any medicare left. Prob wont be any social security left. If your 401 is going to be your EXTRA money, then god bless you. It wont be for a lot of people.
  17. House Washing Steps

    in my opinion you should check out the X-JET. Very happy with it's use. They have bleach friendly citric based soap's and special gutter cleaner's. As you've read the glass is very very important to rinse well and NEVER let any chem dry on ANY surface. ESP> GLASS.
  18. nursing home's are about $5000 per month. How meney year's worth of money have people saved just for that without selling their stock? This cost is going to fall to the boomer's or they are going to have to quit their job just to watch their their own parent's. I have no idea what im going to do when this happen's.
  19. Beth Help!!!!

    It wont let me register on the chat. ron p [a 4 digit password] rottie72@aol.com then it said "invalid" What do i do?
  20. let me say one thing about 401k plan's. Most who invest in 401's are baby boomer's. The majority of the population in the USA fall into this age catagory. Why is this important? Well in about 5 year's the majority of the population [the baby boomer's] will ALL WANT THEIR MONEY AT THE SAME TIME. This in turn will suck the market dry of capital and we are in for a stock crash. Im not the only one who think's this is going to happen. Invest in thing's that you use everyday weather your rich or poor. Just my 2 cent's worth.
  21. go to a costco,BJ"s,ect.. type store and go to the cleaning supply section. Their you will find OVEN CLEANER IN ONE GAL CONTAINER'S. Spray that on with a pump-up. Then rinse. Home depot will have deck brightener. Ware the plant's were no sunlight got to the wood. So no damage from UV. Also moisture was held in. Im sure the dark red will cover. p.s. the reason for the oven cleaner is because it's very high in sodium hydroxide and has a 'cling' so it stick's to oven wall's. It also make's a great gutter cleaner when deluited correctly. I get mine from BJ's when im in a pinch. $3.50 per gal.
  22. Beth Help!!!!

    now this really make's me mad.:confused:
  23. Beth Help!!!!

    dont know what to do the darn thing wont let me register invalid user name
  24. housewash chat

    i want the most people to be able to take part in on this subject. Im on the east coast and monday's and tue's are best for me. What time[my time] would be best? Anyone have some specific topic"s about housewashing? Do we have any newbie's out their that want to chat? I know most of you guy's that have been around are set in your way's but maybe we can learn something new. Chat would cover marketing [would you buy a marketing pkg if it was customised with your co name?] How too chem's chem application tool's trouble shooting problem soil type's Diffrent surface's Pool apron's[flatwork] setting up yearly account's turning homeowner's into free salespeople for you[word of mouth refferal's] How to price,why you price,justifying the price. up-selling your service How to combat the "beer washer's" insurance Im open to any other idea's. Post them if you have any. [just the question's, not ans., that's the point of the chat] Beth, maybe you can post a pic of a house/ house's that we can use to pick apart. This way we can all have the same thing in our mind. I WANT NEW PEOPLE AND THE PEOPLE THAT LOOK AND NEVER POST. I dont use spell check and sometime's dont convay what i mean very well and im a moderator here. So COME ON you WATCHER"S. It's OK. Their are no stupid question's. It's getting boreing without you. You cant learn if you dont ask.
  25. Priceless

    we have pushed car's with the fire truck and the "thru the window" cause's less damage. No firefighter has a prob. with doing this but they esp. like to do it to people that seem to have more arrogance then other's. "note the logo on the trunk" The man who tought me firefighting "FITZ" was in a fire last night and had a heart attack and died. He was 70. NOTHING IN THIS WORLD BEAT'S LIKE THE HEART OF A VOLENTEER! GOD BLESS HIM. P.S. It's being investagated as arson and if caught the perp. will be brought up on murder charge's. My they rot in hell where he can see fire for the rest of eternity.
