  1. cleaning composite

    I use my house wash, downstream, reapply to the tough mold spots and rinse it off with my x-jet nozzle toned down to half pressure.
  2. Engine wont start, can you help?

    Make sure you have fresh gasoline in it. Old gas will not sustain combustion. Check for spark as well. Also a little trick I use is to take the airfilter right off and put a drop or two of gas or starter fluid right into the carb. and give it a shot. But I can not emphasis enough, put fresh gas in it.
  3. Possible too much pressure as well as the two variables Don mentioned.
  4. Call bob at pressure tek, his chems are great quality and cheap. Yes you have to pay for shipping, but the great prices offset it and his customer service rocks. I can call Bob day or night and he always wants to help.
  5. Am I Wrong??

    The PM called you, you had the right to bid. As for ethics, the other guy lied to you about his price to try to set you up to lose the bid all the time he knew his quality was lacking which brought you in. His ethics lack, not yours. Congratulations on a big account.
  6. Help on concrete cleaning pricing!

    Rent a hot water machine for around the pool. You won't want to use anything other than hot water and chlorine unless you can prevent it from going into the pool. As for a pump to power the surface cleaner, the psi is not nearly as important as gpm. Rent a hot water machine with a least 5 or 6 gpm and you should be good.
  7. insurance just went up

    I have Joe Walters and mine went up 5% or so since last year with no claims.
  8. Water usage for avg housewash?

    Neil, I use a 5.6 gpm and would use about 400-500 gallons including washing the gutters and rinsing landscape.
  9. Vonage

    Any thoughts on it for home use. I am sick of paying $60 per month for phone when vonage is only$24. Just looking for some feedback.
  10. Tax Question

    My accountant used a Schedule C, This was my first year and I was able to show a loss. I have a LLC as well if that helps. I used to be one for doing my taxes myself. But the $100 for a professional to do it is well worth it. Not to mention I always do better. Kinda like powerwashing. You can do it yourself over a whole weekend and it looks O.K. or have a professional do it and save time and get a better return. Just my 2 cents.
  11. Vonage

    I have had it only a short time but like i said, so far, so good. Sounds is much clearer than landline and I like all the features. Best part, if you don't like it, there is no commitment.
  12. Vonage

    I took the chance. Took me 5 minutesto set it up for my whole house. And I love it. Great reception, great price.
  13. Simple Cherry vs Citracleen

    Niel, You crack me up. I think you will be pleased with the simple cherry and as you know from PA, Bob is a great guy. I actually feel bad having the winter off that I have not been able to give him any business. When in doubt on what is best, I always check these boards for advise but then evaluate for myself. It may not hurt to get a small or a sample pack of the citracleen and go from there. There is nothing better than be deciding from your own experience. IE. downstream vs. x-jet. Anyone who just decides by reading is foolish in my mind. Spend the $150 for an x-jet and the downstreaming equipment. Try each for a full day after learing how to use each and decide for yourself based on your needs. Have a safe and wonderful Ground Hog Day!!!
  14. Simple Cherry vs Citracleen

    I love the simle cherry because it is cheap, cheap to ship and I mix it when I use it. Takes up less space having a powder vs. jugs of solution. I have used sunbrite citrus cleaner which is comprable to the citracleen from what I have been told and cannot tell a difference from the cherry to the citrus.
  15. Vonage

    I did some research at work today and come to find out, a bunch of guys I work with have it and love it. Amazing how opinions can vary so much. It dosn't cost much to try and there is no commitment, maybe I will give it a shot. Anyone else have an experience.
  16. New business equipment question

    lose the extension pole or buy mine that I never used. Get a good downstreamer and shooter tips for less than $25. Learn to down stream and you will love life. Get a good surface cleaner. I bought my steel eagle refurbed from steel eagle directly on Ebay for 1/2 the price. Dual lance wand is crucial. You can save on the turbo nozzle for now and always cut in with a 15 degree tip.
  17. Wrap that loaf with Bacon

    One of my favorite things to do is cook. I love it. I watch the food network constantly and am always trying to make new things. And to my surprise, I make some good stuff. Tonight I made a bacon wrapped sweat and sour meat loaf with corn and garlic red bliss mashed patatoes. And it kicked A$$. I know, a bacon wrapped meatloaf sounds a bit over the top. Perhaps a couple more calories than usual, maybe some unneeded fat, but wow. Add that with the garlic mashed potatoes and you got one hell of a mea. The only catch is to take a few tums as soon as you are done eating. thats it. No big deal. Such a great dinner tonight, just wanted to share my excitement.
  18. Wrap that loaf with Bacon

    I have also used the large muffin pans to make the loafs at the station. Wrap a slice of bacon around the inside of each tin, stuff with the loaf, top with cheese. yummy
  19. music downloads

    Mike, thanks for the help. Just figured it out. I have all my songs go into the same folder as all my other songs. But windows media player would not let me set up a sync with them. but I just realized that if I go to windows explorer with my mp3 attached, then I can transfer them there. Thanks.
  20. music downloads

    I have the limewire freebie version and can not figure out how to transer them to my mp3 player, any thoughts. I tried goint to file and add folder as Beth suggested but I don't have the add folder under the file menu.
  21. extention poles and brushes

    I buy mine at home depot for 24 feet. check the paint section as well as the cleaning section. They stock them in both.
  22. Granite Counter Tops

    I am pumped. Found a guy to template and install the U Batuba granite that my wife likes for $45 per square foot. 4 grand less than everyone else. We decided for that price to have our bathrooms done as well. The 3 bathrooms are only going to cost another $900 plus sinks. Can't beat this guy.
  23. My 8 year old son asked me...

    Go Bruins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  24. 6%, Simple Cherry and TSP vs 12%

    I have not had a problem with TSP etching in the Simple Cherry. The important thing is rinse first and rinse well after and DONT LET IT DRY ON THE WINDAHS and you should be fine.
  25. 6%, Simple Cherry and TSP vs 12%

    If your downstreaming then you will need the 12%, 6% should be fine if you x jet. the simple cherry has TSP I believe, so you may be wasting if you put more in.
