RCBill 14 Report post Posted March 26, 2006 I just lost a very eloquent and interesting post that I wrote. Lightning doesn't strike twice, so I just gotta ask; When I have organics growing on wood that I want to clean, and I did not want to use bleach, is HD-80 the solution of choice? What is the mix? Do I need to neutralize Percarb, EFC-38, and HD-80? If the intent is neutral Ph, how do I know how much Oxalic to use? Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 RCBill 14 Report post Posted March 26, 2006 If the HD-80 is a go, I'd like to wash this afternoon. So, if you know the answer and the mix and have unlimited weekend minutes, and would like to call me, my phone is 910-620-6300. TIA Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 PressurePros 248 Report post Posted March 26, 2006 Go ahead with the HD-80 if that's what you have on hand. If there is no selaer present, mix it at 4 oz per gallon. Neutralize with oxalic at 4-6 oz per gallon or 8 oz of Citrallic per gallon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 RCBill 14 Report post Posted March 26, 2006 Thanks Ken. BTW, the sales site you posted a link to has been a real jolt, in a good way, to my marketing plan/efforts. I like sales and marketing, but operations get in the way. I read that you are an IT guy. I did some electrical engineering that included writing boolean algebra type of software back in the day the US did some manufacturing. My buddy is/was a databaser. He's washing now too. As much as I liked making machines do my bidding, I prefer the absence of politics that these services provide. Out in the fresh air, covered with dirt, man, this is living.

0 PressurePros 248 Report post Posted March 26, 2006 I'm glad that link has helped open some eyes. I spent years in college, seminar after seminar, digesting book after book, selling cars, selling cell phones, owning a retail shop, selling high end stereo equipment and finally becoming a corporate sales trainer trying to master the art of selling. I'm still learning. That link has some incredible information on it. One thing I haven't done is IT (unless you mean the BULLSH kind) I can shout a definite AMEN about leaving that corporate crap and politics behind. Let me know how the deck turns out for you. -K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Jimmy M 14 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 How dangerous is hd-80 on shrubs at the 4 oz.per gal mix? Also can anyone give me the ESI web address? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 Jimmy, We use HD-80 all the time at this strength. The key is to wet the shrubs and keep wetting them during the process. Lots of water. Dilution on the surrounding area is very important. This is the only URL I have for the manufacturer: http://www.esproducts.net/ Happy Spring!:dancing: :sunshine: Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
