  1. Thanks Beth. I know you mostly use AC. how much more time would my customers get from it? I might give it a try this season. And with the ready seal are you saying that whats left needs to be stripped?
  2. Last year was our first year and we did 32 deck with Ready Seal. One of the selling points I use is that our stain does not need to be stripped off when we come back for maintenance coat in 2 years. My question is if customer waits longer to do maintenance coat, say like 3-5 years, at that point does it need to be stripped, or does a good cleaning suffice before recoat? Thanks
  3. Thanks Rick for the advice. I concider you my bible on wood care. Btw you are the one who originally sent me to Tom Vogel and i am thankful for that.
  4. Thanks you everyone for sharing in my pain.
  5. Hi, My question is especiallyfor the woodies, how do you schedule around the weather and keep busy. It seems to me that if you typically wait 2 dry days before sealing, its very hard to stain alot of decks. What am i doing wrong, or is this just part of it, and sometimes you just need to keep on pushing it off. I currently have 4 large decks waiting to be stained (after having cleaned them), and i cant seem to get to staining them. Please any input would be great, as i am lossing my mind. Thanks.

  7. water wells

    thanks for all the info. i will look into purchasing a small buffer tank. in the mean time, is there a way to determine if a particular well is strong enough for my equipment? thanks
  8. water wells

    Hi, I need some info. I dont have my own water tank yet. My question is, can i take customers that have water wells? are there some wells that are ok, and some not? Thanks for any input.
  9. Thanks Rod! I acctually figured it had something to do with unseen mildew growth. I greatly appreciate the clarity. This also impresses on me the importance of doing a very thorough cleaning before sealant. Thanks
  10. Charlie, It seems that your saying the issue is an accumilation of surface dirt. If so, then are we just talking about a pw rinse, or do you need to clean/nuetralize? - - - Updated - - - yes, pt pine.
  11. Hi, What is the best way to explain to a customer why a brand new deck/fence needs to go thru wash/nuetralize process before sealing. After all wood is not grey yet, and there is no sign of mildew yet? Thanks
  12. John, This could be a great marketing idea. "We are giving back to the community" with a hurricane Sandy special. something to think about. thanks
