Ready Seal
NAPWO replied to krakencleaningsystems's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Ready Seal can get wet after about fifteen minutes of application without much going to happen to it. Like Jim has mentioned, standing water on fresh sealer can be problematic, But truely, if RS doesn't have an oily sheen on the surface, then it usually won't be a problem. Watch for things like flag-stone or pavers or concrete underneath. Fresh sealer can be rinsed off the wood and land on things below. Again, if the sealer has had a short time to sink into the wood, then nothing should be effected. -

Sodium Percarbonate for Roofs
NAPWO replied to Dirtbuster's question in Residential Pressure Washing
Precarb cleaners are usually a fairly gentle cleaner that use an effervesence to help lift dirt off a surface. There PH level tend to be around the 7 mark. Precarbs are usually used as a chlorine alternative. Roofs are usually quite dirty once you are called and a fairly aggressive cleaner is often required to assist in the killing of the growth as well as soil removal. I have spoken with many contractors over the years who have used them and while they will work somewhat, the power and speed wanted by most contracts fall short when it comes to the precarbs.Many distributors have bleach-enhancing surfactants that help you keep you solution strength below damaging levels and will stay stable in your mix so you can use left over mix instead of having to discard it. Many of these mixes also can mask the bleach smell. These products are desirable as bleach and soap mixes are cheap and effective when used correctly, The precarbs just don't seem to have the same "oomph" to get the job done as quickly and effectively. Keep trying things until you find what you think is correct for you. This is just my experiences but if you go into roof cleaning more, I think at some point you will start using the bleach method as it does work.. -

Holy Smokes! Ready Seal now < 100 grams/liter VOC
NAPWO replied to RPetry's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Patrick, you are correct. With Ready Seal it is all about concentration level of product. You can do thse areas like you said and then when you apply the same amount in the rest of the areas it will blend itself. I have done many demos where I have written my name in Ready SEal on wood, even days earlier, and have blended it in. I believe you will be absolutly fine. I do know that if you hand apply the cut in areas and then spray the rest you can sometimes see a lap mark. You apply more by hand than when spraying is what causes this. Feather cut-in applications for this situation and you will come out great. -
X-Jets and M-5's are awesome! They seem to have really gained in popularity this year as we can't seem to keep them in stock. One of the best sellers this year. We all know Adrian loves his Xjet...!

Cedar Deck stained with RS Pecan
NAPWO replied to Patrick Rhea's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Your prep work looks god to me. You can see that the stripper darkened the wood , which isa normal. The brightened wood looks good. If, as you say it looks blotchy after the first coat, I would not worry. Ready Seal is going to look darken at first and can stay that way for up to a week. After a week I would expect you to just love the color it tones down too. I had that experience with my own wood I have done. The second LIGHT application will take care of any blotchy effect and even it all out. I do not see where RS is sitting on the surface so as long as that is not happening, then there does not seem to be a barrier to the absorbtion of the sealer. Sanding with higer than 80 grit sandpaper can cause this. Feel free to contact me for more help with this if you need. I have worked with Ready Seal over 15 years.
