0 PressurePros 248 Report post Posted May 4, 2005 Looks awesome, celeste. Very nice job. Whats the scoop with colors?.. So far I have seven decks awaiting sealer, only four of them want the Honey Gold. Any word on a tint from Russell? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 seymore 90 Report post Posted May 4, 2005 Looks good Celeste :cool: I take it that's not the WT wet huh deck looked pretty dry. Those pot rings are a pain to get out! I've sanded some off but they are tough. I'll usually say just put the plant back in the same spot :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Russell Cissell 65 Report post Posted May 4, 2005 Ken- The tint system is in final stages. As soon as we have approval on labeling and packaging it will be ready for release. If you want to give me a call, I can give you more detailed information. Shane- The wood does not have to be wet for the Wood-Tux application. It works fantastic on dry wood with an average spread rate of 200 square feet per gallon on aged cedar. The real advantage is being able to apply after a rain and keep your schedule on track and your cash flow straight. I think this formulation is really going to help those contractors in the North East and Pacific North West where it is difficult to get wood moisture content below 20% before mildew sets in. Best of Luck Russell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is going to put the planter back in the same spot. I told him it would rough to remove all of it. He was fine with that. Roger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Barry M 73 Report post Posted May 5, 2005 I'll be using the WT wet for the second time this weekend, hopefully a one day job, wash, brighten, and seal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Celeste 341 Report post Posted May 6, 2005 What do you think we should have gotten for it? I prefer not to post our actual invoice totals but we got about twice what you indicated for that deck (and we didn't have to do those rails either) Celeste Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Crownroyal 14 Report post Posted May 7, 2005 Good job. I didn't have to strip anything so I guess I'm not to far off price like I was thinking. Did you have to tape things up? cover stuff? was it on the 2nd story? just wondering what was involed. I know when I first started and had my employees doing the first few decks I wasn't making a nice profit or should I say I was just paying the bills!! Since then and talking to folks on the phone and local guys and I have changed my prices. I think I've done that since I started this company. Everyone remember to call your Mother on SUNDAY.

0 Celeste 341 Report post Posted May 7, 2005 Yes, it was a second story with no access from outside. The homeowner moved everything inside but a table that just traveled around the deck. Didn't have to tape anything during the strip or stain. The strip was really easy as the finish was 11 years old - railings only needed washing, then on with the Wood Tux Wet. Homeowner is happy as pig in muck :) Celeste Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
