  1. Simple Cherry Housewash Mix

    I love it. I use a formula similar to Mike's. Mine is 2.5 gal 12%, 2.5 gal H2O, 2 scoops cherry, and 8oz of Gutter Grenade. Works great on house and then you dont have to mix up anything seperate for gutters. If I am doing new construction homes where there is no mold, I use 3 scoops of SC and fill the rest up with water (5 gal bucket)
  2. Weapons for protection

    Remember with a gun, if you pull it don't be fraid to use it. Don't just pull it as leaverage (sp) Some people will see it and not think you got the guts to use it so be prepared. I have never had to pull mine, if I have to I will use it if necessary. I have a temper too, but with a gun a cooler head will have to prevail in some circumstances. Like some people out there will want to shoot someone that cuts you off on the interstate right before the exit ramp. You cant do that. I know every one on here has had that happen and you want to run the idiot off the road, but a cooler head prevailed.
  3. Weapons for protection

    I have a Ruger P85 9mm. I carry 2 full 15 round clips (1) is for target practicing (2) loaded with hollow points. The hollow point one stays in the gun at all times unless I am target practicing. I do have a permit to carry. If you decide to tote one I recommend getting the permit. My 2 pennies.
  4. dark red ready seal fence

    Looks great...I love that color.
  5. Trailer Tongue Boxes

    John you may want to check with a local trailer company. I know here in GA there are companies that sell the cages for landscapers to add to their trailer if they dont have one. They are mounted over the front of the trailer not the tongue. But if a company makes those I dont see why they wouldnt make the tongue ones. I need to call the trailer guy today to see about getting my sides closed in with the expandable metal like whats on the gate. I'll ask when I call and post if I get a lead.
  6. Pressure Washing Rip Off

    If people hear about this (and they will) thats going to be hard for us to sell jobs by going door to door. I can only speak for myself but I got started pwing deliverying pizzas. I became interested in pwing and while on deliveries I would ask if anyone washed their homes. If they said no I would leave them a card. I know this may sound dumb but I got jobs off of it and then referrals (sp) from those jobs. If I go to someones house to offer my services I at least have a company shirt on and cards and pens ready. ANTHONY-Me and you are in the same boat. I would use every source I could find to find this creep.
  7. stupid things

    I can hear the garbage man now "Your ladder fall?" or "Do you need some help?"
  8. Motorola Razr

    Yeah I used to let my cousin know what I was doing before I did it, but when I was in public Id key him up just so it would be to see how many people would fumble around tryign to find their phone. The thing that got me was the incoming beep and outgoing beeps are different but people would still fall allover themselves trying to get to their phones.
  9. Motorola Razr

    I left Nextel for Verizon...I really miss my "beep beep" But I am like you Scott Verizon is cheaper for me also. I have thoguht about the PDA phones but ( I know this sounds dumb) I am not sure exactly how they work. Functions etc. CHRIS did you read about the phone or just play with it till you got it?
  10. Vacation ideas for a pregnant gal

    Helen, GA would be a thought. Or maybe Gattlinberg(sp?)/Piegon Forge
  11. Motorola Razr

    Beth/Rod-Thats a Nextel phone correct? My contract with Verizon is coming to an end at the beginning of next year and I have considered going back with Nextel. I do new construction houses for a couple ofcontractors and they both have Nextel and I think it wold be easier to set up jobs. Most of the time I leave my phone in the truck when I wash so it doesnt get wet. Jon-I knwo how you feel I have a big head too.
  12. stupid things

    I forgot to latch down the piece on the tongue of the trailer that holds on to the ball. I had drove to the job no problem (thank God) and walked up on the end of the trailer to unload the pwer and the trailer kicked up and almost threw me on my butt. When I realized what I'd done I couldnt believe that it hadnt come loose while driving to the job.
  13. streaks on paint

    Did you let it dry before coming back to rinse? That will cause streaking also, at least I know on vinyl it will, so it may be the same for painted stucco.
  14. Alligators

    My Nanny and Granddaddy took me to Okeefenokee Swamp Park when I was young. They take you on a jon boat ride with the gators. I was scared at first but it got better. Ive never heard of Alligator Adventure. Is that the only one or are there others throughout the US?
  15. dealing with child injury

    I fell of a porch when I was young...dont remember bleeding, but I landed on my head and when I used to shave my head I have a dent in my head from where I landed
  16. Home Remedys

    I use Zicam...I know it sounds like a perscription but its on selves near the throat sprays...I use it on everything, coughing, sneezing, sore throat...gets rid of it all except for mold and mildew on siding
  17. Tools Of The Trade

    Water Broom--My expeience is a waste of money Dont waste your money on that surface cleaner its a piece. I bought one like that from northern and it didn't work. I love my x-jet. I have found this out through this site and I know others will chime in but whisper wash surface cleaners are great. Call Bob at Pressure Tek. He sells those surface cleaners and has the bst prices on xjets. Just my 2 cents
  18. Job tomorrow. WASPS!

    I know a guy that is like this, well maybe not as severe, but he will swell up and if he doesnt take that shot within a few min he will have to go to the ER
  19. Finally NFL Football Season!

    SHANE---Would you have took Bush #1? JEFF---GO DAWGS
  20. NO 12%, HELP research

    JEFF--Can you post the sites of the info you found in this forum? I know I would (and I am sure there are others) that would like that informationif a case like this came up. I actually had a case like this earlier this year where he didn't want me to use bleach. He said a friend of his had his place washed a couple imes a year and over time turned light blue siding white. I looked at him like he lost his mind. I told him that the person obviously didn't know what they were doing. Is this even possible? I tried that Simple Green stuff from Lowes and it didn't work that great.
  21. I'm in need of an x-jet!

    Contact Bob at PressureTek.com. That is where I got mine from and he has best price on them that I found. Plus the customer service is out of this world.
  22. Faith vs. Fact (Creation vs. Evolution)

    Larry...I just wanted to let you know I'll be praying for you.
  23. Faith vs. Fact (Creation vs. Evolution)

    I am a Christian and (as in my signature) " I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me." Phil 4:13 All these "people" say that we evoloved from monkeys. Just a question, IF that was true (which I know it aint) why are there still monkeys? Just kinda food for thought.
  24. Downstreamer Poll - Vote now!

    That aint a bad idea I would just be scared that over time the snapping in and out would loosen it up and wouldnt hold well. Then youd lose tips.
  25. How often?

    In GA usually every 6-8 months bad (mainly houses near pecan trees) AND normal usually 12-16 months.
