One Tough Pressure

There needs to be a law reagrding how much of each that you have, otherwise pool cleaners would be in a world of hurt. So the question is how much of each can you legally carry. Have you checked the local DOT online?

At an elementary school in Indiana, a teacher asks her students to come to class the next day with a story about something that happened to them, and what was the moral of it. The next day the kids came to class. The teacher calls on the first student who says, "Well, my sister was carrying all the eggs from the chicken coop in one basket, then the bottom fell out, and a lot of them broke. So the morale is never put all your eggs in one basket." The teacher then called on the next student who said, "We planned on loading up the wagon, so we got everything set up on the cart, then went to find that our horse was sick. So the moral is never put the cart before the horse." The teacher then called on the next student who said, "Well my Uncle Joe was flying his Apache in a war zone when he was shot down. All he could get out of the chopper was his rifle, knife and a bottle of whiskey. He was surrounded by 100 enemy troops, and decided that there was no way he would let them get his whiskey, so he drank it. With his rifle he killed 70 enemy troops until he ran out of ammunition. Then he started running around with his knife, killing 20 more until the knife broke. Then with his bare hands he killed the last ten" Mortified, the teacher asked, "What could possibly be the moral of this story?" The student then answered, "That's easy. The moral is never mess with Uncle Joe when he's been drinking." _________________________________________________ A Navy Chaplain, a USAF Doctor & a Marine "JAG" officer (Lawyer) were in a boat near an island, had lost their oars, and their boat was surrounded by sharks. They determined, that for two of them to make it to the island, one was going to have to swim away from the boat, out towards the open sea, while the other two swam for the island. The JAG officer said, "I'll do it", and he jumped over board. He quickly swam away while the other two jumped in on the other side of the boat & headed for the island. The two made it and looked towards the open sea to see how the other man was doing. To their surprise, the JAG officer was riding the back of a shark. The shark then dropped him off at the island. The JAG Officer waves to the sharks who swam away. The Chaplain said, "it's a miracle". The Doctor said, "Medically, I just don't understand how you pulled that trick off". To which the JAG Officer replied, "it was just a professional courtesy." _______________________________________________ Two Army quartermaster soldiers were talking (1 male, 1 female-blonde). "I know how to get some time off from duty," said the male soldier. "How do you think you will do that?" asked the blonde soldier. He then proceeded to show her... by climbing up on the warehouse rafters and hanging upside down. The Captain walked in, saw the soldier hanging from the ceiling, and asked him what on earth he was doing? "I'm a light bulb, Sir" answered the soldier. "I think you need some time off," said the Captain. So, the soldier jumped down and walked out of the warehouse. And the blonde soldier began walking out too. The Captain asked her where did she think she was going? "To the barracks, Sir! I can't work in the dark". ____________________________________________________

If they have never posted then you are up a creek. You should be able to do a search for them if they have posted and make it a little easier to find them. If you know that they read the bbs, then you can post a message in the Club House with their name in the subject, asking them to email you.

If you click on the persons avatar you will get a restricted message. If you click on the user name it will give you a list of a few items such as PM, email etc. Yes the user list is blocked at this time, but you can still send PM and email if that user has it turned on.

Now isn't that the purpose of all the boards out there? You do all the homework and the trial and error, then share your wisdom with all the folks who are to lazy to use the search function. You mean we actually have to do our own research and possibly fail before we figure it out? Now I am not sure that is fair, you are being greedy with field proven techniques. You meanie!!! Just kidding, they look great!! So whats it gonna cost me to get your secret?

Then go for the Jasco. You can buy it at Paint stores and Home Depot/Lowes. Get a small can and do a test then you can go for more it it works. Cost about $25.00 a gallon here and is used undiluted.

A popular ingredient in sealer strippers is methylene chloride. Jasco's Premium Paint & Epoxy Remover has that and a few others such as acetone and toluene. Most floor waxes are acrylic and can be removed with a sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide based stripper. Do you have any HD-80 on hand and maybe some of the booster if it gives you any trouble. Since you say it is failing, it will probably give up real easy. If it needs to be thick as Rod says, then throw some hang time in there as well.

WHY GOD CREATED CHILDREN (AND IN THE PROCESS GRANDCHILDREN) To those of us who have children in our lives, whether they are our own, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, or students...here is something to make you chuckle. Whenever your children are out of control, you can take comfort from the thought that even God's omnipotence did not extend to His own children After creating heaven and earth, God created Adam and Eve. And the first thing he said was "DON'T!" "Don't what?" Adam replied. "Don't eat the forbidden fruit." God said. "Forbidden fruit? We have forbidden fruit? Hey Eve..we have forbidden fruit!!!!!" "No Way!" "Yes way!" "Do NOT eat the fruit!" said God. "Why" "Because I am your Father and I said so!" God replied, wondering why He hadn't stopped creation after making the elephants. A few minutes later, God saw His children having an apple break and He was ticked! "Didn't I tell you not to eat the fruit?" God asked. "Uh huh," Adam replied "Then why did you?" said the Father. "I don't know," said Eve. "She started it!" Adam said "Did not!" "Did too!" "DID NOT!" Having had it with the two of them, God's punishment was that Adam and Eve should have children of their own. Thus the pattern was set and it has never changed. BUT THERE IS REASSURANCE IN THE STORY! If you have persistently and lovingly tried to give children wisdom and they haven't taken it, don't be hard on yourself. If God had trouble raising children, what makes you think it would be a piece of cake for you? THINGS TO THINK ABOUT! 1. You spend the first two years of their life teaching them to walk and talk Then you spend the next sixteen telling them to sit down and shut up. 2. Grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your own children. 3. Mothers of teens now know why some animals eat their young. 4. Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said. 5. The main purpose of holding children's parties is to remind yourself that there are children more awful than your own. 6. We childproofed our homes, but they are still getting in. ADVICE FOR THE DAY: Be nice to your kids. They will choose your nursing home one day. AND FINALLY: IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF TENSION AND YOU GET A HEADACHE, DO WHAT IT SAYS ON THE ASPIRIN BOTTLE: "TAKE TWO ASPIRIN" AND "KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN"!!!!!

Byron, I would take Nick up on his offer, as he is only 2 hours from you. As far as investing, I would say invest your time into reading many more posts and get ready to hit it hard in the spring. That 5-7k can go a long way if you use the search function and learn from others mistakes, before you spend any money. Even if you have to get some other job part time while you do some more searching and learning while getting ready for next year. Buying stuff local is good if you need technical support, but you can save a bundle when ordering online. Make sure to shop around before you make any major purchases. As far as low cost, a lawn mower, string trimmer and a few gas cans is pretty cheap. So is a hotdog cart.

Byron, Welcome to The Grime Scene, Potentially there is alot of jobs, if you can sell your service. You will come to find that the people that need your service may have never heard of pressure cleaning and therefore feel that they don't need you. Whoever told you this is a low cost business lied to to you, sorry but I only speak the truth. I am glad to see you have been reading and found this out now instead of later. Some things can be cleaned with water alone, but most require the use of quality chemicals. The pressure cleaner is mainly used for an accelerated rinsing tool. Not to be nosey, but how much money do you have? Unless you can find a used machine, and trust the person selling it, then you will spend a minimum of a grand on a decent machine. That is just the machine, and you will need various spare parts, attachments and such. Insurance down payment and a city business license. Cards are a nice thing, as well as some decent looking work clothes. That would be right here!!! If you take each question and post it in the forum that pertains to that subject you will get more views and better responses. I broke the stuff up abobe to give you some basic info.

Don, Nobody is letting Google jump in here and peddle their wares. The person offering the email is our board tech administrator.

When they came up with the idea for the Roundtable, it was planned for Feb and Oct, so the next one will be in October. Hope you can make it. Business is okay, still can't retire, but that will come in time.

Yes, Muriatic is hard on the concrete and can shorten the life span considerably.

Okay, that sounds better, now what the heck is a KBOE? Do you have some kind of Kohler/Briggs Hybrid?

Eric, Many people use a 4gpm/3000 psi machine for housewashing. Good chems will allow you to lower the pressure and still get great results. Don, What All American unit do you have, as the only 4000 psi machine from them is 3.5 gpm?

What type of work do you do and what type of machine do you have?

Have fun Cruising Carlos

Wish I had another machine as this sounds like fun. They make nozzles in lots of sizes and while we call them soap nozzles, they are just nozzles. Find a place that has a good inventory and they will have them.

Now that we know everything, do you know Jack Schitt. Who is Jack Schitt? The Linage is Revealed Many people are at a loss for a response when someone says, “You don’t know Jack Shitt.” Now you can handle the situation. Jack is the only son of Awe Schitt and O. Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, the owner of Kneedeep N. Schitt Inc. In turn Jack married Noe Schitt, and the deeply religious couple produced 6 children: Holie Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Giva Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins: Deap Schitt and Dip Schitt. Against her parent’s objections, Deap Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school drop out. After 15 years being married, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe later married Mr. Sherlock and because her kids were living with them at the time, she wanted to keep her previous name. She was then known as Noe Schitt-Sherlock. Dip Schitt married Loada Schitt and they produced a nervous son, Chicken Schitt. Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony. The wedding announcement in the papers announced the Schitt-Happens weddings. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Hoarse. Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy with his new bride, Pisa Schitt. So now when someone says, “You don’t know Jack Schitt,” you can correct them.

Matthew, Click on the link in the first post. That will explain what you want to know. This is a new program for Google and is very new. James, I actually use adelphia as my mail server, and only asked about yahoo as I was curious. I may be interested one day, but for now say give them to someone that can really benefit from it. I do not get much mail anyway.

Why can you not have a Yahoo account?

Your on a roll, so when are you gonna beat mine?

I came across www.pwma.org and just had to see what others had to say. Go see for yourself.

I have had an itch to move away from California, and the wife feels the same. Question is on where to go. My sister lives in Orlando and says it is a good place. Lots of green stuff to wash in her neighborhood. Not really sure where I want to go. Anyone live somewhere that is in need of Commercial flatwork? I am not well versed on Housewashing, or Woodcare, as their is no market for it in my area. I can always learn if that is what pays the bills. Have rig will travel.
