  1. Parts for Big Guy

    Thanx, I'll try that.
  2. The specs sounded off to me too. Did you 24 hp @ 3500 psi? Heck, go with a 36" whisper wash
  3. Nice job! Looks real easy to use and move around.
  4. Did you make that? If so, what's the cost? (if you don't mind)
  5. Acid wash stone chimeny

    Thanx Doug, you da man!
  6. Thanks Shane. Yes it is cedar. I'll post the after deck tomorrow. On PT the reaction is a little bit slower and a little bit less "bright," but still very effective. BTW, this pic was taken about 1 -2 minutes after I sprayed on the brightener.

    Thanks Doug. What's your ph#.
  8. Here's a pic of a deck that I did last summer. I downstreamed the brightener on half of the deck to show the difference between brightening and not brightening. As you can see, the injectable chems are strong enough and do work well.

    Thanx guys, I'm waiting for them to email me.
  10. Parts for Big Guy

    WOW! Thanx Scott, that was quick! I just emailed them. I love this BBS!!!
  11. Which would you buy

    You will not run out of water. I have a 8 gpm machine and have never ran out of water on resi jobs. Usually when I'm doing a deck, I have to shut off the spigot when I'm 3/4 of the way done so I don't have a full tank to cart around. The only you would run out of water is if you had a 100% flow tip and pulled the trigger constantly. I wash decks with a size 12 @ 50 degree tip. If you start out with 100 gallons you will be fine. This machine will give you lightning speed on all of your jobs!

    Thanks Steve.
  13. Ratios

    Great, now I have a headache!
  14. I'll have to agree with Jon too. Nobody has ever asked me if I'm certified in anything. Like Jon said, (paraphrasing) If people don't ask about it, then, it is of no value to them.
  15. Which would you buy

    6-7 gpm is average. Don't worry, you won't run out of water.
  16. Wood Furring

    Well, I guess I used the term "strip" loosely. What I should have said is "we apply stripper to every deck." Thanx for helping me clarify Rod. BTW - BULLZEYE! Thank God it was a Nerf arrow! LOL
  17. Ron, you are not kidding about the expences!
  18. Flyers

    overnight prints are great.
  19. Oil Prices

    Man, I'm surprised they aren't going POSTAL! TA DUM TISH! Yes, it has effected us too as we do a lot of driving to fleets.
  20. 4 gpm is barely enough. I would get a 5.5 gpm. at least.
  21. Concrete Chems

    Call E-spec - 800-346-4876 ask for Power Stroke. It's a powder and it works well.
  22. Low ballers making an impact.

    Phillip, I don't see anything wrong with what you said about this guy or posting his ad. Posting his ad gave us all a better look at the problem. Hey, is this the same guy with the wedgie that uses a pink bucket?
  23. Wood Furring

    Forgive me, I'm multi tasking right now. As i'm typing, I'm painting a huge target on my butt! What's up with all this "furring" stuff? I understand why it happened to Degra and now, so does he. Are all you guys and gals saying that every time you strip a deck you have to defurr or sand it? Degra, when you wash a grey deck, pre wet the whole thing first, then apply the chem. This will eliminate the fuzz. Dwell time should be - none. First time deck washes are to be handled very carefully. Chems should be sorta weak in strength. We strip EVERY deck. Grey ones, stained ones, old moldy ones, and so on. On the newer ones that are sorta grey, we pre wet, apply injectible stripper then wash (1000 psi) & brighten. Old, moldy & grey ones - inject on the stripper, wash (1000 psi) then inject on the brightener - same with stained decks. Fuzzies don't happen if you do it this way, we don't ever have to sand any deck - ever. WOW, the target & the typing are finished at the same time! - COOL!!
