0 RPetry 564 Report post Posted May 8, 2013 Nice ads!! I know I prefer wood over composite...gee I wonder why....Beth Beth, Could not agree more. Composites look and just feel bad. Even worse are those ugly white vinyl fences. Wish we had more redwood in this area. Somewhat similar to clear WRC but richer in color. Here is a tread replacement we did years ago with old growth redwood shipped in from California. Gorgeous wood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Jake Clark 17 Report post Posted May 9, 2013 Perhaps if we could merge the two orgs (thus eliminate the infighting in public), I would be more inclined to sponsor a program that promotes wood and wood restoration. I doubt this an original thought. Jake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt this an original thought.Jake Hmmmm... You have a better chance of merging the BDA with TGS and do there own show before these two orgs ever merge. No one can say that your not an optimist though Jake... A joint convention by them "wood" be cool but can't see that happening anytime soon either but then again I am a bit Jaded by all of that stuff now.. One thing is certain. TGS rocks for Wood Restoration post-- & Composites bite compared to wood:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted May 9, 2013 OMG! I had the strangest looking pair of staining shoes for years. Tennis shoes. The toes were really curled up and the colors, I had the whole palate. Lasted for years. Got rid of them when the curl was so bad it made my feet hurt.

0 RPetry 564 Report post Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) Beth, Its raining, I'm bored ... Here is my current crop of woodcare footwear. The sneaks will last for awhile longer, but the Bean boots are getting a bit punky. Have a new pair but just hate to get strong stripper, bleach, and acid on new leather.
