This hour brought to you by Unique Solutions, 3 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: the hippop product. It's called Awesome. It's a h H 4 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: S O M E. Most of the country. Now we're 5 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: done with pool season, but Awesome can still work for 6 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: you to remove the gunk and goo and jetted bathtubs, spaws, 7 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: wash machines, dishwashers. It's non corrosive, it's septic safe. It 8 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: works fast. If you got a say, a washing machine 9 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: that just smells bad, it's biofilm. It's a closed plumbing 10 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: system back there, and it's like a black jelly. It 11 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: is gross and it stinks. Awesome breaks that down. Bleach won't, 12 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 1: and you'll eliminate the odor. And after you use a 13 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 1: load of Awesome, it only takes like a couple teaspoon. 14 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: I think one teaspoon I believe used to on mind 15 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: a number of years ago, and it cleans all that out. 16 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: And then you run a just a regular load just water, 17 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 1: and you get to see all the gunk that you've 18 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: just literally killed.

You did 36 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 2: it sideways. This this savy was grown the whole end 37 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 2: of the house up and anyway. The edges, the flat 38 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 2: edges that you use along sidewalk, you know, just to 39 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 2: break the grass back. 40 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: Uh huh, you know what I'm talking The manual ones 41 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: or the or the manual Okay. 42 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 2: I took one of those and started at the edge 43 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 2: of the house and worked my way across and off, 44 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 2: just kept scraping and it when I got done, the 45 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 2: whole end of the ivy, the whole shape of the 46 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 2: house gable and all fell on the ground, just completely 47 00:02:58,800 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 2: fell off. 48 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: Okay. Let me ask you a couple of questions. First 49 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: of all, she had it on brick and it was 50 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: growing underneath the siding. And her main question was, I 51 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: think she's torn it off, but she wants to know 52 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: how to get the roots and the remnants of that 53 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: ivy off the brick. 54 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, a man, your suggestion was probably the best. 55 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 2: I mean by using that blade, I mean I took 56 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 2: almost every bit of the read off. There was just 57 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 2: barely a little bit there, and like you said, it 58 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 2: took maybe a year, but it finally came off. But 59 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 2: I mean that was a slick way to get it off. 60 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. So when you're talking about the edgeer are you talking? 61 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: It's it's half half moon shaped and it's a place. 62 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: No it's not. It's just quad across, okay. 63 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: So it's like an ice scraper. 64 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 2: Right, It's about six or eight inches okay. And I 65 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: just started on that thing. 66 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe it. 67 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 2: The whole thing stayed up there until I got to 68 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: the end and it just fell off. Looked like the 69 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 2: end of the house was later on the ground. 70 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: So so Ken when you used that was it mainly 71 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: to pull off the actual I'm going to call it 72 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: ivy ivy branches or the stems. It's getting those that 73 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: the plant off the house. That's what you were using 74 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: it for. 75 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was the whole ivy of still green and everything. 76 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: All right, I got you. 77 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was on side. You might just have to 78 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 2: side as Yeah. 79 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: No, that's a great, a great way. I was telling you. 80 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: When I had it on my home, I was a 81 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: young guy and i'd literally, you know, I guess a 82 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: little meathead. You know. I was just pulling it off 83 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: with my hands and digging up the stumps and everything else, 84 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: which I wouldn't even tackle now. But I like your 85 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: idea of getting it off the house with that. But 86 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: the problem I had and what she had is all 87 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: the little fuzzy roots that stay there, and it drives 88 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: some people nuts. This was on the side of our homes, 89 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: so we never really saw it. So we let it go. 90 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: And it was about two years and it dehydrated and 91 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: we literally just swept it off after a couple of years. 92 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 2: Right, Well, if I mean she has a lot there 93 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: and maybe she could try it and maybe just be careful. 94 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: We don't want to be chipping the brick. That's that's 95 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: one thing for sure. 96 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, as long as you lay it flat, I never 97 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: had any problem. Well, listen, thank you to take my call. 98 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: You're quite welcome. Thanks for the tip. I appreciate again. 99 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: All right, and you can join us again. It's eight 100 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: hundred eight two three eight two five five. And I 101 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 1: told you I was going to talk a little bit about, 102 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, kind of giving our kitchen a facelift. And 103 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: when you uh look at your kitchen, what is what 104 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: do you see that you don't like? We'll start there 105 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: and I'm not selling of forty thousand dollars kitchen and 106 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: remodeling job. I'm just talking about improving what we have. 107 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: Is it the floor, maybe it's an old vinyl floor. 108 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: Is it the countertop? Or is it the cabinets. A 109 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: lot of people really focusing on the cabinets, and there's 110 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: some really neat products that can help you rejuvenate a cabinet. 111 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: For engine instance, there's one called restore a finish. If 112 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 1: you have cabnetry that it's old, maybe the finish is crazed. 113 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: You ever seen that kind of crackly? It's not peeling 114 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: off but it's just not smooth anymore. Restore A Finishes 115 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 1: is not quite like a paint stripper. It's more like 116 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: a more like a restoration. I'm not going to use 117 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: the word melts the finish, but it kind of softens 118 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: that finish and you can get rid of some of 119 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: that uneven or not smooth finish. It comes in a 120 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: stained color. There's about eight different colors. The name of 121 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: the manufacturer that if this is something that maybe you have, 122 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: Howard Products is the name. I think they're out on 123 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: the West coast. And restore a Finish comes in like 124 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: a mahogany, a cherry an oak, you know, walnut, that type. 125 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: And what it does is it just kind of smooths 126 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: everything out. I've used it on furniture before. Old Furniture 127 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: did a really good job. Then you can also we 128 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: talked a lot about a product called Millsic. Maybe you 129 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: got kitchen cabinets and around the handles, it's gooey, it's soft, 130 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: it's gummy, it's black, it's distasteful. The Millsic will actually 131 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: remove that gumminess which has caused from oils in the kitchen, 132 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: oils from our hands, old waxes, make it soft. So 133 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: it is a cleaner and a restore. It's not going 134 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: to change the color, it's not going to really change 135 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: the finish. It's simply cleaning and restoring, whereas the other 136 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: one's restoring a finish. And then of course, if somebody 137 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: has tried to paint those cabinets and didn't do a 138 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: a very good job, maybe there's a lot of brush 139 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: marks and the cabinets are old. There's a product called 140 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: smart Strip. In fact, I'm gonna replay an interview that 141 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: we did with Adam Smith at the bottom of this hour. 142 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: Smart Strip is environmentally safe product that will remove oils 143 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: in water, bass and acrylic paints. So there's the three 144 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: steps to kind of rejuvenate the cabnetry. And maybe it 145 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: takes you, you know, a few days to do that. 146 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: The payoff is big, especially if they're looking pretty distressed. 147 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: And the one thing we always talk about how prices 148 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: went up on so many things. I tell you what's 149 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: really went up a lot is cabinet hardware. But what 150 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: a what a while for your dollar you clean those 151 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: cabinets up and then change out the hardware. It really 152 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: really looks good. And one other thing, as we take 153 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: you through those steps. Maybe the next thing is no, 154 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: I want to totally refinish them. I want to paint them. 155 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: I want to send them down. Sure we can do that. 156 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: A tip there is getting a paint that is brushable. 157 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: A lot of our enamels today are modified acrylics or 158 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: acrylics and they just don't brush out like an old 159 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 1: oil based wood. And I've recommended this product for front doors, 160 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: for woodworks, and I'll recommend it for cabinetry. It's a 161 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: Sherman Williams product. I think it's the best trim enamel 162 00:10:54,920 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: on the market today. It's called Emerald urethanem and you 163 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: might you might cough a little bit when you get 164 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,719 Speaker 1: the price, but I'm telling you it'll be worth it. 165 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: Get yourself a good mohair four inch roller, if it's 166 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: a flat surface or a polyester brush.

Well, 212 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: here's a problem some of us will experience, probably in 213 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: the next four weeks as we start decorating outside our 214 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: homes for the holidays. And by the way, if you 215 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: are doing lights and different things outside, make sure they're 216 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: protected with a ground false circuit interrupter. Newer homes from 217 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: the eighties on up pretty much have them. You can 218 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: buy extension cords with ground false circuit interrupters in the 219 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: in the receptacle part of an extension cord, And basically 220 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: what it is, it's a protection device that shuts off 221 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: lights if there's a problem, a short moisture, et cetera, 222 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: et cetera. When I said many of us will or 223 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: not many, some of us will have a problem, and 224 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: that is you plug into Christmas lights and all of 225 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: a sudden they turn off. It's it's probably gonna be moisture. 226 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: It could be a small ground fault, but it's probably moisture. 227 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: So the first thing you want to do, and this 228 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: is really important, is really check where the plugs, the 229 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: extension cords, where the light sockets, and make sure that 230 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: moisture can't get in those do create a problem that 231 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: would then protect your house and shut everything off in 232 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: terms of the electricity. But one of the things you 233 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: can help yourself when you're doing this, and like I said, 234 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people going to be decorating over the 235 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: next four weeks is the connections outside. Maybe you're doing 236 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: the bushes, maybe you're doing some trees and jumping down 237 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: to the bushes. Is is keep the connections off the ground. 238 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: That's that's kind of rule number one. And if you 239 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: want to wrap the plug connections with a plastic wrap 240 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: outdoor covers for electrical connections also, so we want to 241 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: take moisture out of play, and then really inspect the 242 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: lights in the cords even before you get them up, 243 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: and look for nicks and cracks and cracks in the insulation. 244 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: And boy, if you stored those lighting fixtures up in 245 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: the attic. We spoke about that a lot a year 246 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: ago about that's a no. No attics, even if they're ventilating, 247 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: get very very hot in that insulation around the holiday 248 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: lights just is not that good. It's not designed to 249 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: last long, and it's not designed to last in the 250 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 1: heat of an attic. And then you might as well 251 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: just discard it. Even a small leak around, maybe even 252 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: the outlet box. A GFI with would usually have insulated 253 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: covers that snap over the outlet, but they're open when 254 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 1: they're plugged in and moisture gets in there and that 255 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:37,239 Speaker 1: can cause the problem. Make sure the extension cords you're 256 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: using are all marked UL and outdoor use. And you 257 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,679 Speaker 1: know it used to be we would trip gfis because 258 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: we had incandescent bulbs on our outdoor lights. Well they're 259 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: all all i'd say for the most part, probably ninety 260 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: five percent led now, so it's really hard to have 261 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: too many lights plugged into one outlet. But that used 262 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: to trip him a lot also. But anyway, if it does, 263 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: you know, shut everything off, press the reset and then 264 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: you can test to make sure it resets properly. If 265 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: it's not resetting, it could be the ground fall circuit 266 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: interrupt itself, but usually I can almost guarantee it. You 267 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,199 Speaker 1: might even be the one that just says all that 268 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: outlet's bad. No, it's probably not. It's probably doing its job. 269 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: So if you can unplug it and let it sit 270 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:41,719 Speaker 1: for a minute or so and then plug it back in, 271 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: it should reset. Otherwise you win. And it is the outlet. 272 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: But in most cases, moisture moisture, moisture moisture. So keep 273 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: the lights, keep the extension courts, keep as much as 274 00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: you can off the ground. You'll be way ahead of 275 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: the game because it's very frustrating when that when that happens, 276 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: and you can kind of start, uh, you know, also 277 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: paying attention if it trips only during wet weather, shower, snow, 278 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: et cetera, it's a good sign too. All right, Coming 279 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: up Adam Smith from Demand Global, We're going to talk 280 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: about removing lead based paints, just to crily paints, oil paints, paints.

Well, i'll tell you what we're at 333 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: that time of year, we're going to be spending a 334 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 1: lot more time indoors, and we start thinking about stripping surfaces, 335 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: maybe a garage floor, banquet table, and of course I 336 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: always turn to Dumont Global. Tell us a little bit 337 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: about Dumont Global. I mean, you guys got forty years 338 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: of experienced manufacturing, sturing, water based, user friendly products. You 339 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: were a kind of a head of the curve. 340 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, we kind of work. Forty years ago, we made 341 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 5: a decision to kind of be a little bit safer 342 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 5: alternative in the paint removal category. And we all know 343 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 5: in nineteen seventy eight they outlawed lead based paint, So 344 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 5: about forty years ago, we decided to come out of 345 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 5: the product that would work to remove lead based paints safely, 346 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 5: easily and effectively. And that's when we came up with 347 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 5: Peva Way one for that product to actually remove up 348 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 5: to thirty coatings of organic lead based oil alka based paints. Okay, 349 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 5: it's a simple process, it's ritually no VOCs in the products, 350 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 5: so using the dendors is not a problem. You put 351 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 5: it on, put our performance paper over the top of it, 352 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 5: test it and see how long it's going to take 353 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 5: to remove that coding. Now that's if you know that 354 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 5: surface is actually older than nineteen seventy eight. Okay, And 355 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 5: we've talked about this in the past with our test kits. 356 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 5: With our test kits, that way you guarantee you know 357 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 5: the type of coatings you need to remove. It's going 358 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 5: to be more of a modern coating like you know 359 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 5: your water based latex paints, or you're even more modern, 360 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 5: you're two part of poxies, you're a thane and all 361 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 5: last Americ coatings. So once you test, you find the 362 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 5: right product, and then you would you would proceed with 363 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 5: the project. And in this case, if you're using PA one, 364 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 5: you put it on, you leave it set, you test it, 365 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 5: see how long it takes to get down to the 366 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 5: base level of wood or metal, whatever the surface is, 367 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 5: and then you can go from there. And the nice 368 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 5: thing there's no airborne lead, so all the leg gets 369 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 5: encapsulated in the performance paine. 370 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: I'll tell you that's a big project, but so worthy 371 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 1: because you know if you're living a home that was 372 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: built you know, early nineteen hundreds or eight late eighteen hundreds, 373 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: I mean, you're the lead based paint. You could have 374 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: thirty five coats of paint on walls, and if you're rehabbing, 375 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: it's kind of a dangerous house absolutely. 376 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 5: I mean, you think about a home that was built 377 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 5: in nineteen seventy for old guys like us, it doesn't 378 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 5: seem like it was that long ago, but it really 379 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 5: quite quite a long time ago. And so you just 380 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 5: think about those homes as well. You know, people painted 381 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 5: their fireplaces that were you know, that were brown at 382 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 5: one time. They put multiple coats of paint on there. 383 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 5: So you know, we offer the opportunity, your options to 384 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 5: remove that paint and bring it back. And you know, 385 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 5: the nice thing with the restoration projects out there, people 386 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 5: are starting to understand that you don't find wood like 387 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 5: this anymore, oh carrying the wood out, throwing it out. 388 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 5: They're trying to preserve it and bring it down to 389 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 5: its natural beauty that. 390 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 2: It was once was. 391 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: Well, the carpentry on that wood or the milling or 392 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: whatever you call it, the ornate features of it are 393 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: just you don't see that anymore. I mean, the only 394 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: way you're ever going to enjoy that is to restore it. 395 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: So that would be the keel away one. But if 396 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 1: I've got a mom's dresser that I'm going to restore, 397 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: that's a whole different ballgame, isn't it. 398 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, it really is. Again, we always suggest testing, okay, 399 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 5: but if you know you purchased that dresser in nineteen 400 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 5: eighty nine, you're probably going to be perfectly fine to 401 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 5: use you the smart Strip Advance or smart Stript Pro. 402 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 5: And it's really the same process. You do the test, 403 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 5: find out which product works best. Apply either smart Shrift 404 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,199 Speaker 5: Pro or smart Shrip Advanced. Cover it with the performance paper. 405 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 5: Test it, let it sit, see how long it takes 406 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 5: to get down to that base layer. And the nice 407 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 5: thing is using the performance paper it helps it here 408 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 5: the product, the smart strip to the surface because you 409 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 5: don't want penting. What will happen if you have multiple 410 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 5: layers of paints and you just leave it, it'll start 411 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 5: to bubble up. And once it starts to do that, 412 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 5: the product read you know there's multiple layers underneath there. 413 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 5: It won't touch those areas. So the performance paper it 414 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 5: holds everything in place and then when it times when 415 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 5: it comes time to scrape it off, you're scraping it 416 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 5: right into the. 417 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: Paper, so of it that way. Yeah, So this is 418 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 1: a job that's a whole lot easier than the old 419 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: days of methylene chloride, right because I remember that and 420 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 1: outside of it being extremely caustic, but you know, you'd 421 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: get that, you'd get like thick soup on the top 422 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: of a dresser and you're throwing it in the newspaper 423 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 1: or something, I mean. 424 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 5: Or metal can. 425 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 426 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, that old stuff is pretty pretty nasty. And the 427 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 5: one thing with our products you mentioned earlier about doing 428 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 5: projects indoors, especially in the winter time, we're very very 429 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 5: low VOCs with our product. Okay, but you don't have 430 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 5: that harsh chemical smell that you get a lot with 431 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 5: the you know, petroleum based type of pay removers. 432 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: Sure, okay, so. 433 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 5: You don't get those harsh fumes, you don't have to 434 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 5: keep the windows open. Fully, it's a much easier, much 435 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 5: safer project. Then. 436 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, you read those old cans and it was like 437 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 1: turn off your furnace burner and open your windows. Well 438 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: I'm not doing that at thirty. 439 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 5: Exactly exactly, And you know, non flammability is important as well. 440 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 5: You know those other products we had mentioned, Like you 441 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 5: just said, turn everything off. You don't want to spark, 442 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 5: you don't want to fire. You just want to be 443 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 5: able to do the job the way you want to 444 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 5: do it right. 445 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 1: Right. So let me reverse just a little bit, because 446 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: these you feel away one that you were talking about, 447 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:03,239 Speaker 1: and then the smarts rip Advantage Advanced or pro. There 448 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: are really two different, big, different products. And I guess correct. 449 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,959 Speaker 1: Dumont Global is a global company and it's sold around 450 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: the world, and there's some big structures that I know 451 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: Dumont Global was involved in. It was like stripping the 452 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: Kniffel Tower is not what I would consider a small job. 453 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 5: No, it's that's that's a very that's a multi year job. 454 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 5: So yeah, so Eiffel Tower is one of the projects 455 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 5: are using our product down. They've used it on the 456 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 5: Brooklyn Bridge. One of the cool ones is the Hollywood 457 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 5: signing California. They've used it at the Louver Museum in France, 458 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 5: the Sydney Harbor Bridge and if you're in France, the 459 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 5: Chateau de Prunand is an old chateau that was purchased 460 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 5: and these two people are rehabbing the house or chateau, 461 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 5: not a house, but a and that's in gardoo friends. 462 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 5: So yes, our products are used all around the world 463 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 5: because they weren't they're and they're safe. 464 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. So one of the things I'm thinking. We just 465 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: had some conversations on the show regarding garage floors. You 466 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: know I've used for years, twenty years now. The garage 467 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: floor has become a modern day floyer. And you know 468 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: we used to talk about clean them up and getting 469 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: ridd of oil spots. We still do. And now we're 470 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: talking about coatings on there. You know, we have the 471 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: box the POxy coatings, which I still managed and claim 472 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: that you'll be doing really well if you get four 473 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: to six years out of it. At some point you 474 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: may want to improve because science has improved in the 475 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: type of coatings and you can grind it off, right, 476 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: or you can strip it off. And this is kind 477 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: of where we get into, well, which one of the 478 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: those products do I use? And you do alright, test yet, 479 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: so tell me a little bit about the test it 480 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: and then tell me what product do wemove like in 481 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: epoxy coating. 482 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 5: So if you can use if it's an epoxy floor, 483 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 5: the test kit will definitely drow right down to the 484 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 5: smart strip pro what we would call blue. That would 485 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 5: be the product that you definitely want to use. Is 486 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 5: that was designed to go after you know, dual part 487 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 5: of poxys erathans e last Americ coatings and the more 488 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 5: complex coatings that are coming out. And again process is 489 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 5: very simple. You put it down, cover it with paper, 490 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 5: come back script, scrape it off with the paper and 491 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 5: throw it out and rinse it down with water. The 492 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 5: nice thing about all of our products, you literally use 493 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 5: water to clean the surface to get any residual off. 494 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 5: There are other products out there that you have to 495 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 5: use after washes or mineral spirits and things like that 496 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 5: after you move, so you're using a chemical to remove 497 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 5: a chemical. With ours. Once you are done, you literally 498 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 5: just use water to clean that up. So you can 499 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 5: pressure wash it off, you can scrub it off, rinse 500 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 5: it off with a spray bottle if it's a smaller area. 501 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 5: There's things I brought out to my yard, hosted down 502 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 5: with my with my gardens. 503 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: So here's a question. I don't know if I've everch 504 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: but you know, we talk a lot about decks on 505 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: this show, and I know that's a stain. But there's 506 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: also solid color stains that are used. There's these resurfacing decks, 507 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 1: which again I'm not a fan of. But would your 508 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 1: test kit identify well, I know it would identify which 509 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: strip to use, which stripper to use. 510 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, and in that case it would be the perfect 511 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 5: time to use the test kit, just to make sure 512 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 5: that it's doing what you expe effected to do. And 513 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 5: in most cases, in most cases, one of the three 514 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 5: products will work. And if it's a modern deck, obviously 515 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 5: it will be Smart Strip Advanced or Smart Strip Pro. 516 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 5: If it's more of a modern deck, you know, concrete 517 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 5: seilers will work great on concrete seilers as well. 518 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: Well. This is a fascinating and not to confuse people, 519 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: but the majority of coatings is going to be able 520 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: to be removed by the Smart Strip Advance correct. 521 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 5: If it's more of a modern absolutely, yeah, Like that 522 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 5: is one of the safest ones you'll find in the marketplace. 523 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 5: The anything about it doesn't have that huge horrible scent 524 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:52,959 Speaker 5: or smell, and we don't mask them with other sense, right, 525 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 5: the red, green or the blue. So so, but. 526 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: You I was gonna say, you guys got it right, 527 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: and That's probably why you were kind of first out 528 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: of the box here, But so many other people have 529 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: done different things and their their kind of story is 530 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,800 Speaker 1: it removes coatings. Well, it doesn't remove all the coatings. 531 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 1: It's got some bad press over the years. Other brands 532 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: and you guys now have developed a test kit where 533 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: if you're not sure, and most of us wouldn't be, 534 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. You can get a test it and 535 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 1: be one hundred percent sure, or you're can go with 536 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 1: the smart strip and probably be eighty ninety percent sure. 537 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: It sounds like it's a little bit of a back 538 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: you know. 539 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 5: We like to say you're going to narrow it down 540 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 5: to probably ninety okay, using a testkit, one of our 541 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:41,479 Speaker 5: products is gonna work. 542 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 2: You know. 543 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 5: I recently talked to a gentleman that decided not to 544 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 5: use a test it and went out and bought a 545 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 5: bunch of gallons and the product didn't work. 546 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're going to go to that length. 547 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 5: Right, I'd prefer you to spend a little bit of money. 548 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 5: I think it's a job done correctly. You then spend 549 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 5: a lot of money to figure out you did it incorrectly, 550 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 5: then spend a lot of money to do it again. 551 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 5: We prefer you just want and done with our products. 552 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 1: So speak to me.

The phone lines 636 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 1: are open. It's eight hundred eighty two three A two 637 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: five five. And well as the weather begins to chill 638 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 1: and get cold, especially in some parts of the country, 639 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 1: are going to get the luck colder faster than other parts. 640 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: Plumbing is one of the things that seemed to get 641 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 1: affected more than anything else. Drains run slower, maybe water 642 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: heaters give up, and so there is a couple of 643 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,479 Speaker 1: management things and maintenance things you can do around your home. 644 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 1: Something that's very simple. It doesn't take any amount of time, 645 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: but it seems something It seems a tad silly to do, 646 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: but I really recommend that you do do it, maybe 647 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 1: once a year, and that is and now would be 648 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:35,760 Speaker 1: a good time, would be too. Take a walk around 649 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: the inside of your home and concentrate in areas where 650 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: you have the vanity underneath the kitchen cabinets, by the toilet, 651 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: you have supply valves in most cases, not in every home, 652 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 1: but in most cases you'll have a shut off underneath 653 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 1: the vanity, underneath the kitchen cabinet, underneath the toilet. And 654 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: go ahead and turn those off and then turn the 655 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 1: water on, drain it, and then turn it back on. 656 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: And the reason you're doing that a is to make 657 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: sure that the valve is still functioning. And when you 658 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,879 Speaker 1: turn it on and turn it off, then I want 659 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 1: you to just double check for leaks. I mean, we're 660 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 1: not trying to cause problems, but sometimes there's already an 661 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: issue and you don't know that there is an issue, 662 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 1: and you shut it off, you drain it, you close it, 663 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,320 Speaker 1: you turn it back on, and put a little piece 664 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 1: of tissue paper underneath that and just make sure there's 665 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 1: not a drip or two on there in the next 666 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: hour or so. Is a good a good way to 667 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 1: make sure there is no problem at all. Another thing 668 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: unscrewing the air raider on the end of the faucet. 669 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: That's the little cap. A lot of times, not a 670 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 1: lot of times, but sometimes there'll be a lot of 671 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 1: sentiment that builds up there, and quite honestly, you're really 672 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 1: not getting the full volume of water out of your 673 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: faucet just because the sentiment is blocking the opening in 674 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:13,280 Speaker 1: the aer rator. So those are a couple of little 675 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: plumbing things you can do. And I guess the last 676 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,719 Speaker 1: one is just check the drains I got involved in 677 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: this last week, and so simple, and especially the vanities, 678 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,800 Speaker 1: the ones that are used a lot, I find are 679 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:33,880 Speaker 1: maybe the problem ones. It just turned the water on 680 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 1: and make sure all the water is going down the 681 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:42,919 Speaker 1: drain and not causing some black In other words, it's 682 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 1: just not draining as smooth as it normally does. And 683 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 1: I've talked about a zip it strip, a thirty inch 684 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: long piece of plastic with little barbs on it is 685 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 1: a great way to do it. It took me this 686 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: one vanity sink. It was very, very slow. By the 687 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 1: time I let the water run for maybe thirty seconds, 688 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,799 Speaker 1: it was halfway up in the bowl. Well there was 689 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,879 Speaker 1: something blocking it. And running that zipp it down there 690 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: cleaned it out and you could just hear it like 691 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,279 Speaker 1: somebody just unplugged it and the water went down, and 692 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 1: well it's maintained now. I won't have to worry about 693 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 1: that running slow anymore. 694 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 4: All right. 695 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 1: Our phone number is eight hundred eight two three eight 696 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 1: two five five.
