Kathy, welcome, Hi, thank. 20 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: You, thanks for taking the call. You bet Okay, So 21 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 2: my husband and I are getting ready to put siding 22 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 2: on our house. We currently have theater siding where we 23 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 2: might get rid of the wood. Okay, so we're looking 24 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: at the LP smarts and there's two different There's a 25 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 2: Pro and the regular James HARDI board or the Metal. 26 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 2: My question to you, if you were going to put 27 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 2: one of these products on your house, which one would 28 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 2: you pick? And why? 29 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 1: Yeah? The why is gonna be hard because they all 30 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: got their own pros and cons, But the LP siding 31 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: would probably be the one I would choose. The warranty 32 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: is great. I think it's a twenty five year warranty 33 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: on color fading. If I'm not mistaken, it's very. 34 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sorry, go ahead. 35 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 2: There's two different series. The one is the Pro series 36 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 2: and apparently they put it on and it's baked on 37 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 2: and so it's got a longer warranty. And then the 38 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: regular one we think is yeah, fifteen twenty five something 39 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 2: like that. 40 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: I think the Regular is twenty five, and I do 41 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 1: know the Pro series is a little longer, but I'm 42 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: not really I can't sit here and tell you the 43 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 1: pros and cons between the Standard and the Pro series. 44 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: So that twenty five year warranty to me seems like 45 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: a really good warranty. I don't know about you. By 46 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: twenty five years, I'm sick of the color anyway. So 47 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: that the one reason I like the LPA is the warranty. 48 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: You have variations of looks, you know, depend on whether 49 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: you want it lapped over and you know, horizontal, vertical, whatever. 50 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: They got different choices. If you have a New England look, 51 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: they have a choice for that. So it's really kind 52 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: of maintenance free. It's also very durable. Some of the 53 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: questionable things on wood sightings, even metal sightings, maybe even 54 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: cement board sightings is the ability to withstand, like if 55 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: you're cutting grass, or a kid throws a hardball against 56 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: the sighting the house and you know, dense it or 57 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: breaks it or something like that. The LP is very 58 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: very durable. The metal sighting that's good too, But I 59 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: don't know. I think for me it's just that it's metal. 60 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: I don't really want the metal. I kind of would 61 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: like more of a wood look versus a metal look. 62 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: I think you can tell the difference. I think it's personal. 63 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: I don't think you're going to go wrong with any 64 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: of those but you asked me what one I would 65 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: probably focus in on. That's the one I would. 66 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're leaning towards that as well. A friend of 67 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 2: ours told us that the metal they now have a 68 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 2: wood grain look to mettle, but it's vertical. But you know, 69 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: I just I've seen metal over the years kind of fade, 70 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 2: just leap. 71 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 4: I don't know. 72 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: Well it does, you know it does. But even the 73 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: best of the best, I mean, over time, it's going 74 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: to weather, you know, nothing's forever. I think the twenty 75 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: five year warranty on Fate, I think that's superior. It's 76 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: probably on a lot of those products anyway, but they're 77 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: all I don't know. I just think long term. I 78 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:21,919 Speaker 1: like the LP. 79 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: Okay, so we did hear that whenever you cut it 80 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 2: you have to feel you have to prime and paint 81 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 2: the ends right, as long as that is followed. Really well, 82 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: you don't see that that's an issue. 83 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, so no, I don't. In fact, one of the 84 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: things that's a that's a good thing to bring up to. 85 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: Almost all those companies that you just mentioned are at 86 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: the mercy of a contractor to make the installation proper. 87 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: It's not that complicated, but they just want to make 88 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: sure to live up to the warranty, that it's properly installed. 89 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: I know James Hardy with a Hardyboard cmentboard siding. They 90 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: went into a period of time. I don't think they'd 91 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: do it anymore, but they wouldn't warrant it unless a 92 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: certified contractor by them did the installation. But yeah, I mean, 93 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: they will all have their specifications. We talk about it 94 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: a lot on this show, how warranties get voided due 95 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: to you know, poor workmanship. I guess maybe one of 96 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: the things you might want to check and see if 97 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 1: LP has a recommended Sometimes they have advanced training for 98 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: some contractors they more or less specialize in that particular brand. 99 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: See if they have a listing of certified contractors for you. 100 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, all right, I think that just about does it. 101 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: All right, very good, good luck, it'll look beautiful, all right, 102 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: take care of Yeah, better than what you got, I 103 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: hear you, all right? Uh, you know that's true. And 104 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: you know how many times have I talked about this, 105 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: especially in roofing, because a lot of roofing warranties I 106 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: don't know about now, but you know, several years ago, 107 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: maybe ten years ago would get voided because of improper installation. 108 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: You read on roofing, you read on sighting, you read 109 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: on what you're installed. They'll have manufacturer recommendations. They knew 110 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: that you had to paint where the cut was, and 111 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: that has to be followed with roofing. Same thing has 112 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: to be properly ventilated. Can't be put on top of 113 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: an old roof, That's right, you gotta tear the old 114 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: stuff off and ventilation being by the t so it's 115 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: not too hot, and break down the shingle. You know, 116 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: if it's properly installed, it's going to service you and 117 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: in roofing, and I know this is the same way 118 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: with some sightings. They have recommended certifications for their installers, 119 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: and I would definitely use one, even if they are 120 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: just a little bit more expensive, because they've been trained 121 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: exactly for that product. And I don't know. I could 122 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: go on their website and I'm sure they have a 123 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: list of certified installers put in your zip code in 124 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: your set to go. But so many times people ask me, 125 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: well can I do this with a metal roof? I 126 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: don't know what's the what's the installation requirement? Say and 127 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: stay with that and follow that to the letter of 128 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: the law. We'll take a break, we'll come back.

All right, that 184 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 1: band said, let's get back to the phones. We got Andy, Andy, Welcome. 185 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 3: Good morning, Gary. 186 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: How are you. I'm fine, thank you. Okay. 187 00:12:58,559 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 3: I'm calling in today. 188 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 5: Have a tile. 189 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 3: Shower in my master bathroom and I've started to notice 190 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 3: a little bit of grout deterioration, mostly around the base, 191 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 3: and I was looking at either regrouting it or potentially 192 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 3: doing a silicone beat around the base of the shower, 193 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 3: and I would like your input on the best path forward, 194 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 3: maybe a little bit of prep work before I do 195 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 3: my fix. 196 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: Well, it's all about the prep work, there's no question 197 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 1: on that particular project. Usually they are grouted all the 198 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: way down and usually after time we switch over to 199 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: the silicone or a quick seal or something along those lines. 200 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: So when you say it's deteriorating, what's going on? 201 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think in the corners of the shower, I 202 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 3: can see that it looks a little deeper, right, So 203 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 3: there's a whole almost it's not all the way through 204 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 3: the grout, Okay, but I start to see that in 205 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 3: my concern as if I don't address it, it could 206 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 3: leak down. And it's on the second floor, so you know. 207 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: Probably will eventually. Yeah. 208 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 3: Right, So if you're my thought was go ahead, You're sorry. 209 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: I was going to say, if you're going to grout it, 210 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: or you're going to use a calking. It's going to 211 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: require removal of that grout or calking. So either way, 212 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: and you're probably gonna look at doing the whole thing 213 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: unless and this might be a decision maker for you. 214 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: Unless you're just going to address maybe the corner and 215 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: a little bit of the grouting and you still have 216 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: some of that grouting, so you know that it'll match. 217 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: So consider that. And then also you know, is it 218 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: a tubb or shower and just a shower? Is there 219 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: a tub shower combo or what it is? 220 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 3: Just a shower to walk in shower? 221 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, so there's some flexibility, but it's not like 222 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: it's holding you two hundred pounds of water either. Uh yeah, 223 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: So you can certainly grout that. Do you have any 224 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: of the existing grout? I do not. Okay, So so 225 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: there's the there's the deal, all right. So if you're 226 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: going to growd it, you got to get all that 227 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: groud out around that whole shower base. And there is 228 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: a grout removing tool which looks like a box knife, 229 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: only instead of a razor blade at the end, it's 230 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: got like three teeth. Or you can grind it out. 231 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: You can get a drum atol and grind the groud out, 232 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: but you got to get as much of that groud 233 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: out as you can. And grout also doesn't like to 234 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: stick to grout, so you're gonna have to use a 235 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: bonding agent with the grout. So and you're gonna want 236 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: to come close because you're still going to have the 237 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: groud in between the tiles probably that are going to match, right, Okay, 238 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: So that's the grout, and then if you did the silicone, 239 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: you gotta ground. You're gonna have to get that ground out. 240 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: The adhesion for calking takes place on the sides, so 241 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: on the side of the tower going up the wall 242 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: and on the side on the top of the shower 243 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: pan itself. So you got to have a crevice in there. 244 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: You don't have to fill the crevice, but that's where 245 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: the adhesion is gonna take place. Okay, And you know 246 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: you're probably gonna have a choice of whiter, beige, bethub cocking, almond, 247 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: something along those lines. Yeah, white, do what we go with. 248 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 3: And I think that helps the bonding adhesion. Is is 249 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 3: really helpful, Garrett. I appreciate that. And then just to 250 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 3: wrap up in terms of maintaining the whole shower its 251 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 3: new home for me and my wife, just relative maintenance. 252 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 3: In terms of keeping the ground and the tile clean. 253 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 3: Is there a particular product that you recommend, is there? 254 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of there's a lot of great 255 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: products out there. Uh. I guess if I was is 256 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: it hard water stains? Is it mildew stains? What? What 257 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: do we what's what's the number one thing it looked? 258 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: Makes it look bad? 259 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd say so far, so good. We haven't really 260 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 3: had any. 261 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: Use not hard water, okay. 262 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 3: But but it does look like the prior owner maybe 263 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 3: put a grout paint over the grout. Okay, so that's 264 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 3: what that's what we're considering. 265 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a that's a good consideration. I mean, grout 266 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: has a penetration of about three percent of water when unsealed, 267 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: When sealed it's about a one and a half percent, 268 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: and when painted it's less than a half percent. So 269 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,479 Speaker 1: if you can keep that water from penetrating in the ground, 270 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 1: it makes it last longer. That's the bottom line. It's 271 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 1: less likely to mildew and maybe that's why it's looking good. 272 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: So staying on top of that, it'd be good. There's 273 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: a product Went and Forgets shower where you just spray 274 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: it on once a week and it cleans it. Okay, 275 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: and maybe why it's something you don't need to You 276 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: probably don't need it every week, but maybe every other week. 277 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, Well, I think that helps very much. I 278 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 3: think the plan will be for us to probably get 279 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 3: a drama and clear majority of. 280 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 1: That ground out. 281 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 3: I think because of the look and feel, I'll probably 282 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 3: look to match that grout and do the bonding adhesive 283 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 3: you recommend it, and we'll look at some of the 284 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 3: wet and forget. But Garry, thank you very much for 285 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,239 Speaker 3: your time, and we love your show, so thank you 286 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 3: taking the call. 287 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: Appreciate it.

Kristen, welcome, good morning morning. 344 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 6: I have a vinyl siding question. All right, it is 345 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 6: our current sighting is twenty seven years old. What are 346 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 6: your thoughts on painting it as opposed to replacing it? 347 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: Well, you can paint it. 348 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 4: Will it last? 349 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: If it's properly painted, it should last. Yes. The biggest 350 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: what color is it? Now? 351 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,959 Speaker 6: It's like a beige tank and I would like to 352 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 6: go to like a forest or a hunter green, something darker. 353 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: So here's what you need to do. Go to a 354 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 1: Sherman Williams Store, okay, and talk to them, because there 355 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: is a reflectivity quotient for paints. The darker the color, 356 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 1: the more heat they absorb. And it is vinyl, so 357 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 1: a forest green or a darker color is going to 358 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: absorb more heat from the sun. And it absorbs too 359 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: much heat, it can warp. But Sherman Williams has a 360 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: special tint that they can use in paints based on 361 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: its reflectivity of solar heat cane, where they can tint 362 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: your paint. If they can tint to that color that 363 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: you want, that will determine, you know, how paintable it is. 364 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: If it was the other way around, it be no problem. 365 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,880 Speaker 1: Oh okay, But go to them and discuss that they 366 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 1: do have tints that can make that happen. The two 367 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: colors you mentioned are probably the two most extreme to 368 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 1: make it happen. So that's why I want you to 369 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: You're going to have to go there and make sure 370 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 1: that it is in fact paintable. So it may make 371 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: your decision anyway, sure, but the durability of the paint 372 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: quite honestly, it's going to be ten to fifteen years, 373 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 1: So I mean it would be good to paint as 374 00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: long as it's not going to absorb too much heat. 375 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 6: Okay, and I appreciate your help. 376 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: You're quite welcome, Thank you, take care, bye bye. Yeah, 377 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 1: it definitely is going to depend on that. Uh. I 378 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: don't think that's when you want to just go to 379 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 1: the hardware store and say, give me this forest green paint. 380 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go home paint my vinyl sighting. I think 381 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: there's some precaution needs to be taken before we do that. 382 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Mark Mark Welcome. 383 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 4: Are you doing? Gary? Coming back at you with the 384 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 4: bottle jack? 385 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: All right, how'd we do. 386 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 4: Well? The the two joints that I actolutely could not 387 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 4: give up or get up, those two pulled out. It 388 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 4: worked like it worked like money. 389 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: It was like butter real. 390 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 4: A couple of these fasteners were so tight. Now I 391 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 4: got the bottle jack. I got a twenty ton, so 392 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 4: I literally lift there's one that I lifted the deck 393 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 4: up about an eighth of an inch before I realized, uh, 394 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 4: the deck is coming up. That's not good. So I 395 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 4: got my pride bar out, tapped under it, and the 396 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 4: thing just popped and the whole thing went back down. 397 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: God. 398 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:18,160 Speaker 4: So yeah, whoever invented these fasteners, I will find you and. 399 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 1: I will hunt you down. I will hunt you down. 400 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 4: I haven't. 401 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: We had a collar and asked if he had heard 402 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:30,719 Speaker 1: you say about the green construction bags, that dumpster type bags, 403 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: and he was wondering if you could have just cut 404 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: those boards or were you going to reuse them? And 405 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: I said, I didn't ask that question. So are you're 406 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: going to reuse them or. 407 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 4: Oh no, no bags? They come and they picked those 408 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 4: up on a big truck and take them away. 409 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, all right, all right, there's I also 410 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: looked up after your call see if there was any 411 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: other tools for taking those things up, and there is 412 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: a couple of them.

Yeah, a lot, about seventy five percent 419 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 4: of the nails are pulling through. Would you just nail 420 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 4: those back in or take a bull nose cutter and 421 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,959 Speaker 4: cut them off or do what you can and get 422 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 4: them out. 423 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: I so, now, hold, where where's the nails kind of 424 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: staying in place? Is that what you're saying or what 425 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: I missed you there? 426 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,479 Speaker 4: Yeah? When you pull the deck board up and it 427 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 4: goes right through the deck board because they're so old 428 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 4: and dry. 429 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 1: Right, and you're pitching these boards correct. 430 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 4: Oh these boards are going away? 431 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: Yeah? Okay, does it matter? 432 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 4: Well? These are they're stuck in the frame. When I 433 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 4: pull the deck top off the nail. 434 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: I got, so they're stuck in the frame. Well, you know, 435 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,640 Speaker 1: one of the things you're gonna have to do when 436 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: you go with those boards, the new boards over those 437 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,640 Speaker 1: joys or frames that you're talking about, is you want 438 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: it to be smooth. So you could cut them off 439 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 1: and then you could use that joye tape on top 440 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: of that and then put your deck boards on top 441 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: of the joystape. 442 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 4: Okay, so bullenoze, just get a steel steel blade for 443 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 4: a bull nose and. 444 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 1: Just cut them off in the tape is the most 445 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 1: important part, because even if you got them all the 446 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: way out and you didn't use the tape and water 447 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: filtered into those joys, where the water's going, it's not 448 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: pressure treated and it'll rot. Okay, so all right, basically, 449 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: snip it off, make it smooth, put your joystape on top, 450 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: waterproofs it, and you're good to go. Sweet. 451 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 4: All right, perfect sounds great. 452 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: Lad it worked out, Thanks Mark, you got you all right? 453 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: All right, that's pretty interesting.

I just got a quick question 461 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 7: for every Did my bathroom put some marble flooring down? 462 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 7: And I don't know if they let the grout set 463 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 7: too long, but once they remove the grout, there's still 464 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 7: some remaining grout on the on the marble itself. Is 465 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 7: there a product or anything I can use other than 466 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 7: scraping it off to take that off? 467 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: Is it marble? It is marble? Yeah. The only thing 468 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: that's going to take the ground off is an acid, 469 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 1: So that's not going to work well with the marble. 470 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: I'd try, I try, sc I mean, you know there's 471 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: even grout pot there's even groud cleaners that are out 472 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: there that are acid base, I'd have to really check. 473 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: I don't have a product that I'd say that's going 474 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: to take off that grout off the marble and not 475 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: hurt the marble. The marble is you know, you can't 476 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:26,239 Speaker 1: use acids on marble. Now. Somebody might make something on that, 477 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: but I don't have a name for you. 478 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 7: So other than I maybe just trying to scrape it 479 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 7: off with a I. 480 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: Would guess though. I mean, I'd just be scared to 481 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: death to use some acid on that marble. I mean, 482 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: you know, even sometimes people will tell you, you know, if 483 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 1: you get some you got ceramic town, you got access grout. 484 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: The the grout washes. You know, some people even use vinegar, 485 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: but vinegar is an acid too. It could, it could, 486 00:30:54,920 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: It would those that would dull the marble. And I 487 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: don't know of a product that would remove the grout 488 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: and not damage to marble. I'll check. I'll peruse during 489 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: the next break, and maybe somebody else knows too, but 490 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: I'm not familiar with one. 491 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 7: All right, Gary, Well, thank you so much. I do 492 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 7: appreciate your time. 493 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: Keep listening, keep listening, We'll get you an answer. Thank 494 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: you much. I think I gave you the answer. I 495 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: would be be very very cautious marble and marble's tricky too, 496 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: because a lot of people think marble's imperfouse.

All right, back there we go at 545 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: home with Gary so and a quick look on the 546 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 1: grout on marble and I was saying, yeah, you just 547 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: gotta be really really careful staying away from acids or 548 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: anything along those lines. I'll tell you what. I didn't 549 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: really find anything. I got some a couple tips I found, 550 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:21,799 Speaker 1: but kind of covered doze. Their suggestion is kind of 551 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 1: the scraper the plastic scraper. There is stone cleaners which 552 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: marbles the stone. It's pH neutral. That's the key, pH neutral. 553 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: So you can use a pH neutral stone cleaner or 554 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:44,240 Speaker 1: just a mild dish soap, microfiber cloth and scrub for grout. 555 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: Ha's it's not going to Actually the only way you're 556 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 1: going to remove the groul on marble looks like a 557 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: plastic scraper. Also a little baking soda which can give 558 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: it a little bit of a grout a grit. That 559 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: may work. I know that the Jaws products in the 560 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 1: line of Jaws, a lot of those are pH neutral. 561 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 1: They got the one cream cleanser, it's got a grit. 562 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's pH neutral. You might go 563 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 1: to Jaws cleans dot com take a look at their 564 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 1: cream cleanser. That might be an option. All right, let's 565 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: go to Bridget Bridget Welcome, Hey Gary. 566 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 8: I got a quick question for you about paint sprayers. Oh, okay, 567 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 8: for the interior I'm gonna be doing inside. I got 568 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 8: a lot of painting to do, and I figure a 569 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 8: paint sprayer is probably gonna be the easiest way to 570 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 8: go about it. What is a good one? So I'm not. 571 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 8: I hear they clog up a lot, and it's more 572 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 8: of a paint in the butt than it is to 573 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:56,280 Speaker 8: just get a roller. 574 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, for inside, I mean the Wagner's spray. 575 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 1: They've got a bunch of different brands, a bunch of 576 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: different flow rates. I would probably take a look at those, 577 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: but I kind of kind of lean on that same way. 578 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:16,360 Speaker 1: I get it if it's a large area, like a 579 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: side of a house or something, but inside the house 580 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 1: is the house empty right now? 581 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 4: Uh? 582 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 2: Yeah? 583 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 8: Pretty much? Yeah, And the floors, I'm gonna be redoing 584 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 8: the floors, so you're probably gonna hear from me a 585 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 8: lot more because I don't know what I'm. 586 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 3: Doing, but I do have to do it. 587 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 8: So yeah, I'm gonna be doing the floors after I 588 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 8: paint so and I also have to do the ceilings. 589 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 8: And the ceilings are popcorn and I'm not taking a 590 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 8: roller the popcorn ceilings, and I don't want to scrape 591 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 8: it off, so I need a spray. 592 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: Well, the biggest thing I would say is, you know 593 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,359 Speaker 1: the adjustable nozzles. Obviously you are going to come into 594 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 1: play because you're going to have trim work. I don't know, 595 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: maybe I'm old school. I'd probably lean to that the 596 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: roller in the brush would probably do as fast a 597 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: job is spraying it. But there's a lot of prep 598 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: work you're going to have to use with with spraying it. 599 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: But I also get the whole, uh, the whole deal 600 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: about the the popcorn ceilings too. 601 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,240 Speaker 8: And before you get if you're just on the popcorn ceiling, 602 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 8: well that's. 603 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: A possibility, that's something you might want to take a 604 00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: look at it. I think what I would do is 605 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:38,800 Speaker 1: I'd first get to a store and start looking at them, Okay, 606 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 1: or get on the Wagner website. I know they got 607 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: a pretty expense extensive one. It's I haven't been there 608 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 1: for a while. They make they used to make one 609 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 1: paint sprare for the do it yourself for Now they 610 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: make like twenty and they can even make them where 611 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: you can literally use pinpointing for stream for you know, 612 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:04,720 Speaker 1: out or something along those lines. But also know about 613 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: the different nozzle selections. I think you need to know 614 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 1: about that and the popcorn ceiling just for your information. 615 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 1: And you may know this already. Popcorn ceilings are a 616 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: mixture of paint, topping, compound and sometimes star foam beads 617 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: that are just sprayed up there, and this ceiling is 618 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: then not taped or not finished. Okay, and sometimes depending 619 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 1: on the mixture which we don't know, that popcorn ceiling 620 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: is not really sealed. So if you put a heavy 621 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 1: layer of water based paint on that, it could delaminate 622 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 1: the popcorn ceiling. 623 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 4: Okay. 624 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 1: So then you get into you know, testing it in 625 00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,360 Speaker 1: the corner with you know, a wet rag or something 626 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: a spray by, I don't see if it's going to 627 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: dissolve on you and you might end up having to 628 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: use like a solvent based kills product on the ceiling 629 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: before you paint it. Okay, great, So just think that 630 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 1: one through also, and then in the meantime, I think, 631 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think you're going to need a 632 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 1: real powerful sprayer, but there is different things, you know, 633 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: a lot. Probably the best one to get for what 634 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,960 Speaker 1: you're going to use it for, quite honestly, is something 635 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 1: with a flow control. It's it's fanwidth, it has different 636 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 1: pressure sittings, and it's adjustable so you can tailor you 637 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 1: can kind of tailor the spray to whether you're against 638 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 1: a door jam, whether you're against the ceiling. But I've 639 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: used sprayers. I've used them outside, and I guess I 640 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,319 Speaker 1: could use them in a like a big old pull 641 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: barn on the inside, But for a house, I don't know. 642 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: I just I feel like you could probably accomplish the 643 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: same thing with a roller. 644 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 7: H I got the whole house to do it. 645 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the thing. 646 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,840 Speaker 3: Oh man, yep, so. 647 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 8: Floors. 648 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think one of the things the misconception is. 649 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:21,959 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a place for him. I'm not telling 650 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: you not to get one. I'm just telling you to 651 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: become really familiar with them before you make a decision 652 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 1: to buy one, because and how often you're going to 653 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: use it, and how how can you use it? And 654 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 1: more than anything is the prep work. Now. Granted, I 655 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 1: mean you could even cover the floors if you want 656 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 1: to minimize the mist and all that, but you know 657 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: you can at the type if you've got a window 658 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:50,319 Speaker 1: moldings or door moldings or window glass, that's all got 659 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: to be taped up. That takes time. Yeah, I mean, 660 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 1: you're not going to roll as much, but I don't 661 00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 1: know if you're really going to save any time. 662 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 8: Okay, Yeah, you're right, probably, Yeah, i'd save money to 663 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:05,839 Speaker 8: just rolling it. 664 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 1: So yeah. And another thing is if you have a 665 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 1: garage or something, go rent a paint sprayer and play 666 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 1: with it a little bit. 667 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 4: Uh huh. 668 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,800 Speaker 1: That's an option too, So go to a tool rental 669 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: and just kind of mix up some and if you've 670 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: got an area where you can use it, and you'll 671 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 1: quickly realize how much you know preparation work you're going 672 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 1: to do, and how you feel about using the paint sprayer, 673 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: and it may be all positive or maybe no, I'm 674 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: not doing this. I mean I think it'd be nice 675 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,760 Speaker 1: to have a little experience before I made that decision. 676 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 8: Okay, okay, all right, well I appreciate it. 677 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 1: Thank you, all right, very good, thank you. Take care 678 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 1: bye bye. Be careful on those ceilings, folks. And I 679 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 1: mean it we've had over the years. And even more 680 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 1: than that is the ones, not so much the popcorn ones, 681 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 1: but the ones that are just stamped. It's a topping compound, 682 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: it's unprimed, it's unpainted. It made fast work for the building, 683 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 1: the house or the remodeling. But then somebody comes along 684 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: gets a water staining on there. All I'll I'll just 685 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 1: paint that ceiling and then all of a sudden, it 686 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 1: starts delaminating. It absorbs the water because it's really not sealed. 687 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: Sometimes they're sealed very good on the popcorn, but we 688 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,719 Speaker 1: don't know that. You have to test that before you 689 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,760 Speaker 1: get to that point. All right, we got Bill, Carroll, 690 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: Tom sit tight. We're gonna take a break and when 691 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 1: we come back, we'll have more calls to talk about 692 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 1: and learn about. We'll also I learn about replacement windows. 693 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: We've had a couple of questions on that. That'll be 694 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,320 Speaker 1: in the next hour as we continue.
