0 Adrian 155 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 A few more pics of completion. cleaned with zero degree tip and dual turbo nozzle at 4500 psi using muratic acid and lithium hypochlorite to strip. Applied stain with xjet wide open. I simply pushed all of the overspray into the lake. Hey... no one was looking. Rolled all the tarp up with bricks and sank them to he bottom of the lake as well. I kept all the fish that floated up and saved a bundle on lunch for me and my helper. Poured the left over stain out into the customers yard for fertilizer. Any comments? Just kidding guys , I did it all the eco and bio friendly way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Coastal Painter 14 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 If it were my deck job, I would have gotten the money up front and skip town. Why go to all the trouble of wrapping tarps up and messing with a zero tip at 4500 psi ?????? lots easier to just get the money and go to the local beer joint HAHAHAHAHA just kidding deck looks great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Adrian 155 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 I taught you well Grasshopper Hardly !!!!! lol. check the riding mower thread Jeff.

0 Coastal Painter 14 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 So what kind of finish did you use on the deck??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Coastal Painter 14 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 Here is a couple I did a few weeks back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Adrian 155 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 So what kind of finish did you use on the deck??? I used Baker's from Shane / Wood Savers. I mixed a 2:1 Super cedar Gold and Super Cedar Dark. Decks on water get more uv and moisture. ...... so I was a little creative..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Adrian 155 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 Here is a couple I did a few weeks back Saaaweeet !!!!! I bet you didn't even get your feet wet scooping the fish out from that one!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Coastal Painter 14 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 I bet you didn't even get your feet wet scooping the fish out from that one!!!!! Actually I didnt get any chems at all in the water.. So as far as the getting the fish to float, I used a powerful mix of c-4 plastics and earth quaking depth charges of TNT. The customer got mad and fired me.. I dunno why??.HAHAHHAA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Adrian 155 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 lmao In all seriousness, Ted Nugent only endorses M-80's and crank up telephones for canal fishing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 seymore 90 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 Looks good AC! :cool: You think you had enough plastic on the grass? :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Adrian 155 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 Thx Shane. It actually could have used more because of the freakishly high winds that day. The customer really liked the effort and concern though. ...... she cooked some mean Baker's G. A. channel cat though!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 racechaser 64 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 You think you had enough plastic on the grass? :D That had to draw more attention the job than a 4x8 yard sign. I'm still trying to figure out if you were serious bout the zero degree tip and applying the stain with your x jet. LOL It does look great though. Where is that near?

0 Adrian 155 Report post Posted March 31, 2007 Thx Scott, It's in Cypress. I was just kidding about the rest. Prepped it with bleach, a little hydroxide, secret soap sauce applied and lifted through xjet w/ low pressure applicator. Brightened with ox. Stained with Deckster As usual around here I had to slip in between thunder storms and hope for the best. I was actually prepared to cover the entire deck and benches with a plastic canopy if the weather did not cooperate. Believe me, I had a stack of stakes behind the scenes and 400 more ft of plastic if needed. ILMXJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
