The edges, the flat edges that you 40 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 3: use along sidewalk, you know, just to break the grass back. 41 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: Uh huh, you know what I'm talking The manual ones 42 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: or the or the manual Okay. 43 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 3: I took one of those and started at the edge 44 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 3: of the house and worked my way across and off, 45 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 3: just kept scraping and it. When I got done, the 46 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 3: whole end of the ivy, the whole shape of the 47 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 3: house gable and all fell on the ground, just completely 48 00:02:58,800 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 3: fell off. 49 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: Okay. 50 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: Let me ask you a couple of questions. First of all, 51 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 1: she had it on brick and it was growing underneath 52 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: the siding, and her main question was, I think she's 53 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: torn it off, but she wants to know how to 54 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: get the roots and the remnants of that ivy off 55 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: the brick. 56 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 3: Okay, Well man, your suggestion was probably the best. I 57 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 3: mean by using that blade, I mean I took almost 58 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 3: every bit of the read off. There was just barely 59 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 3: a little bit there. And like you said, it took 60 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 3: maybe a year, but it finally came off. But I 61 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: mean that was a slick way to get it off. 62 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 63 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: So when you're talking about the edgeer are you talking? 64 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: It's it's half half moon shaped and it's a place. 65 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 2: No, it's not. 66 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 3: It's just across the fron Okay. 67 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: So it's like an ice scraper rights. 68 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 3: It's about six or eight inches okay. And I just 69 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: started on that thing. 70 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe it. 71 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 3: The whole thing stayed up there until I got to 72 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 3: the end and it just fell off. Looked like the 73 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 3: end of the house was later on the ground. 74 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: So so Ken, when you used that was it mainly 75 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: to pull off the actual I'm gonna call it ivy 76 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: ivy branches or the stems. It's getting those that the 77 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: plant off the house. That's what you were using it for. 78 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was the whole ivy of still green and everything. 79 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,239 Speaker 2: All right, I got you. Yeah, he was on side. 80 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 3: You might just have to side. 81 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, that's a great, a great way. I was 82 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: telling you. 83 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: When I had it on my home, I was a 84 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: young guy and I literally, you know, I guess a 85 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: little meathead, you know. 86 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 2: I was just pulling it off. 87 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: With my hands and digging up the stumps and everything else, 88 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: which I wouldn't even tackle now. But I like your 89 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: idea of getting it off the house with that. But 90 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: the problem I had and what she had is all 91 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: the little fuzzy roots that stay there, and it drives 92 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: some people nuts. This was on the side of our homes, 93 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: so we never really saw it. So we let it go. 94 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: And it was about two years and it dehydrated and 95 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: we literally just swept it off after a couple of years. 96 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 3: Right, Well, if I mean, she has a lot there 97 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 3: and maybe she could try it and maybe just be careful. 98 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 2: We don't want to be chipping the brick. That's that's 99 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 2: one thing for sure. 100 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, as long as you lay it flat, I 101 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 3: never had any problem. Well, listen, thank you to take 102 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 3: my call. 103 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: You're quite welcome. Thanks for the tip.

It's eight 105 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: hundred eight two three eight two five five. And I 106 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 1: told you I was going to talk a little bit about, 107 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: you know, kind of giving our. 108 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 2: Kitchen a facelift. 109 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: And when you uh look at your kitchen, what is 110 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: what do you see that you don't like? We'll start 111 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: there and I'm not selling of forty thousand dollars kitchen 112 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: and remodeling job. I'm just talking about improving what we have. 113 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: Is it the floor, maybe it's an old vinyl floor. 114 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: Is it the countertop? Or is it the cabinets. A 115 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 1: lot of people are really focusing on the cabinets, and 116 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: there's some really neat products that can help you rejuvenate 117 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: a cabinet. For engine instance, there's one called restore a finish. 118 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: If you have cabnetry that it's old, maybe the finish 119 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: is crazed. You ever seen that kind of crackly it's 120 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 1: not peeling off, but it's just not smooth anymore. Restore 121 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: A Finishes is not quite like a paint stripper. It's 122 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: more like a more like a restoration. I'm not going 123 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: to use the word melts the finish, but it kind 124 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: of softens that finish and you can get rid of. 125 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: Some of that. 126 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: Uneven or not smooth finish. It comes in a stained color. 127 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: There's about eight different colors. The name of the manufacturer 128 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: that if this is something that maybe you have, Howard 129 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: Products is the name. I think they're out on the 130 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: West coast. And restore a Finish comes in like a mahogany, 131 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: a cherry, an oak, you know, walnut, that type. And 132 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: what it does is it just kind of smooths everything out. 133 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: I've used it on furniture before Old Furniture did a 134 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: really good job. Then you can also we talked a 135 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: lot about a product called Millsic. Maybe you got kitchen 136 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: cabinets and around the handles, it's gooey, it's soft, it's gummy, 137 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: it's black. 138 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 2: It's distasteful. 139 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: The mill Sic will actually remove that gumminess which has 140 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: caused from oils in the kitchen, oils from our hands, 141 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: old waxes make it soft, so it is a cleaner 142 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: and a restore. It's not going to change the color, 143 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: it's not going to really change the finish. It's simply 144 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: cleaning and restoring, whereas the other one's restoring a finish. 145 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: And then, of course, if somebody has tried to paint 146 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: those cabinets and didn't do a a very good job, 147 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 1: maybe there's a lot of brush marks and the cabinets 148 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: are old. There's a product called smart Strip. In fact, 149 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna replay an interview that we did with Adam 150 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: Smith at the bottom of this hour. Smart Strip is 151 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: environmentally safe product that will remove oils in water, bass 152 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: and acrylic paints. So there's the three steps to kind 153 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: of rejuvenate the cabnetry. 154 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 2: And maybe it. 155 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: Takes you, you know, a few days to do that. 156 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: The payoff is big, especially if they're looking pretty distressed. 157 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: And the one thing we always talk about how prices 158 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: went up on so many things. I tell you what's 159 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: really went up a lot is cabinet hardware. But what 160 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: a what a while for your dollar? You clean those 161 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: cabinets up and then change out the hardware. It really 162 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: really looks good. And one other thing, as we take 163 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: you through those steps. Maybe the next thing is no, 164 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: I want to totally refinish them. I want to paint them. 165 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: I want to send them down. Sure we can do that. 166 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: A tip there is getting a paint that is brushable. 167 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: A lot of our enamels today are modified acrylics or 168 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: acrylics and they just don't brush out like an old 169 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 1: oil based wood.

Well, 224 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: here's a problem some of us will experience, probably in 225 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: the next four weeks as we start decorating outside our 226 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: homes for the holidays. And by the way, if you 227 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: are doing lights and different things outside, make sure they're 228 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: protected with a ground false circuit interrupter. Newer homes from 229 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: the eighties on up pretty much have them. You can 230 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: buy extension cords with ground false circuit interrupters. 231 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: In the in the. 232 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: Receptacle part of an extension cord, And basically what it is, 233 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: it's a protection device that shuts off lights if there's 234 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: a problem, a short moisture, et cetera, et cetera. When 235 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: I said many of us will or not many, some 236 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 1: of us will have a problem, and that is you 237 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: plug into Christmas lights and all of a sudden they 238 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: turn off. It's it's probably gonna be moisture. It could 239 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: be a small ground fault, but it's probably moisture. So 240 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: the first thing you want to do, and this is 241 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: really important, is really check where the plugs, the extension cords, 242 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: where the light sockets, and make sure that moisture can't 243 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: get in those do create a problem that would then 244 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: protect your house and shut everything off in terms of 245 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: the electricity. But one of the things you can help 246 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: yourself when you're doing this, and like I said, a 247 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: lot of people going to be decorating over the next 248 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: four weeks is the connections outside. Maybe you're doing the bushes, 249 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: maybe you're doing some trees and jumping down to the bushes. 250 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 2: Is is keep the. 251 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: Connections off the ground. That's that's kind of rule number one. 252 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: And if you want to wrap the plug connections with 253 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: a plastic wrap outdoor covers for electrical connections also, so 254 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: we want to take moisture out of play, and then 255 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 1: really inspect the lights in the cords even before you 256 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: get them up, and look for nicks and cracks and 257 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: cracks in the insulation. And boy, if you stored those 258 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: lighting fixtures up in the attic. We spoke about that 259 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: a lot a year ago about that's a no. No attics, 260 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: even if they're ventilating, get very, very hot in that 261 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: insulation around the holiday lights just is not that good. 262 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: It's not designed to last long, and it's not designed 263 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 1: to last in the heat of an attic. And then 264 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: you might as well, just discard it. Even a small 265 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: leak around, maybe even the outlet box. A GFI with 266 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: would usually have insulated covers that snap over the outlet, 267 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: but they're open when they're plugged in, and moisture gets 268 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: in there and that can cause the problem. Make sure 269 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: the extension cords you're using are all marked UL and 270 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 1: outdoor use. And you know it used to be we 271 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: would trip gfis because we had incandescent bulbs on our 272 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 1: outdoor lights. Well they're all all i'd say for the 273 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 1: most part, probably ninety five percent led now, so it's 274 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 1: really hard to have too many lights plugged into one outlet. 275 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: But that used to trip him a lot also. But anyway, 276 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: if it does, you know, shut everything off, press the 277 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 1: reset and then you can test to make sure it 278 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 1: resets properly. If it's not resetting, it could be the 279 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: ground fall circuit interrupt itself. 280 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 2: But usually. 281 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: I can almost guarantee it. You might even be the 282 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,959 Speaker 1: one that just says all that outlet's bad. No, it's 283 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: probably not. It's probably doing its job. So if you 284 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: can unplug it and let it sit for a minute 285 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: or so and then plug it back in, it should reset. Otherwise, 286 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: you win, and it is the outlet. But in most cases. 287 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 2: Moisture moisture, moisture moisture. 288 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 1: So keep the lights, keep the extension course, keep as 289 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: much as you can off the ground. You'll be way 290 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 1: ahead of the game because it's very frustrating when that 291 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: when that happens, and you can kind of start, uh, 292 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: you know, also paying attention if it trips only during 293 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: wet weather, shower, snow, et cetera. It's a good signed. 294 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 2: Too, all right. 295 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: Coming up Adam Smith from Demand Global, We're going to 296 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: talk about removing lead based paints just to crily paints, 297 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: oil paints, paints. 298 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 2: Uh, he'll teach us how and what to use.

I mean, 357 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: you guys got forty years of experienced manufacturing sturing, water based, 358 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: user friendly products. You were a kind of ahead of 359 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: the curve. 360 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, we kind of work. Forty years ago, we made 361 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 5: a decision to kind of be a little bit safer 362 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 5: alternative in the paint removal category. And we all know 363 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 5: in nineteen seventy eight they outlawed lead based paint, So 364 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 5: about forty years ago we decided to come out of 365 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 5: the product that would work to remove lead based paints safely, 366 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 5: easily and effectively. And that's when we came up with 367 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 5: Peva Way one for that product to actually remove up 368 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 5: to thirty coatings of organic lead based oil alka based paints. Okay, 369 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 5: it's a simple process, it's ritually no VOCs in the products, 370 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 5: So using the dendors is not a problem. You put 371 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 5: it on, put our performance paper over the top of it, 372 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 5: test it and see how long it's going to take 373 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 5: to remove that coding. Now that's if you know that 374 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 5: surface is actually older than nineteen seventy eight. Okay, And 375 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 5: we've talked about this in the past with our test kits. 376 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 5: With our test kits, that way you guarantee you know 377 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 5: type of coatings you need to remove. It's going to 378 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 5: be more of a modern coating like you know your 379 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 5: water based latex paints, or you're even more modern, you're 380 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 5: two part of proxies, you're a thane and all last 381 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 5: Americ coatings. So once you test, you find the right product, 382 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 5: and then you would you would proceed with the project. 383 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 5: And in this case, if you're using PA one, you 384 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 5: put it on, you leave it set, you test it, 385 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 5: see how long it takes to get down to the 386 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,239 Speaker 5: base level of wood or metal, whatever the surface is, 387 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 5: and then you can go from there. And the nice 388 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 5: thing there's no airborne lead, so all the leg gets 389 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 5: encapsulated in the performance paine. 390 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: I'll tell you that's a big project, but so worthy 391 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 1: because you know, if you're living a home that was built, 392 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: you know, early nineteen hundreds or eight late eighteen hundreds. 393 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: I mean the lead based paint. You could have thirty 394 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: five coats of paint on walls, and if you're rehabbing, 395 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: it's kind of a dangerous house. 396 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 5: Absolutely. I mean, you think about a home that was 397 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 5: built in nineteen seventy for old guys like us. It 398 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 5: doesn't seem like it was that long ago, but it 399 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 5: was really quite quite a long time ago. And so 400 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 5: you just think about those homes as well. You know, 401 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 5: people painted their fireplaces that were you know, that were 402 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 5: brown at one time. They put multiple coats of paint 403 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 5: on there. So you know, we offer the opportunity, your 404 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 5: options to remove that paint and bring it back. And 405 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 5: you know, the nice thing with the restoration projects out there, 406 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 5: people are starting to understand that you don't find wood 407 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 5: like this anymore. Oh carrying the wood out, throwing it out. 408 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 5: They're trying to preserve it and bring it down to 409 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 5: its natural beauty that it was once was. 410 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: Well, the carpentry on that wood or the milling or 411 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: whatever you call it, the ornate features of it are 412 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: just you don't see that anymore. I mean, the only 413 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: way you're ever going to enjoy that is to restore it. 414 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: So that would be the keel away one. But if 415 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 1: I've got a mom's dresser that I'm going to restore, 416 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: that's a whole different ballgame, isn't it. 417 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, it really is. Again, we always suggest testing, okay, 418 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 5: but if you know you purchased that dresser in nineteen 419 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 5: eighty nine, you're probably going to be perfectly fine to 420 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 5: use you the smart Strip Advance or smart Stript Pro. 421 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 5: And it's really the same process. You do the test, 422 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 5: find out which product works best. Apply either smart Shript 423 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,199 Speaker 5: Pro or smart Shrip Advanced, cover it with the performance paper. 424 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 5: Test it, let it sit, see how long it takes 425 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 5: to get down to that base layer. And the nice 426 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 5: thing is using the performance paper it helps it here 427 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 5: the product, the smart strip to the surface because you 428 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 5: don't want penting. What will happen if you have multiple 429 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 5: layers of paints and you just leave it, it'll start 430 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 5: to bubble up. And once it starts to do that, 431 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 5: the product red you know there's multiple layers underneath there. 432 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 5: It won't touch those areas. So the performance paper it 433 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 5: holds everything in place. And then when it times when 434 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 5: it comes time to scrape it off, you're scraping it 435 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 5: right into. 436 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 2: The paper, so it that way. 437 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, So this is a job that's a whole lot 438 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: easier than the old days of methylene chloride, right because 439 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: I remember that and outside of it being extremely caustic, 440 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: but you know, you'd get that, you'd get like thick 441 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: soup on the top of a dresser and you're trying 442 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 1: in the newspaper or something, I mean or metal can. 443 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. 444 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, that old stuff is pretty pretty nasty. And the 445 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 5: one thing with our products you mentioned earlier about doing 446 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 5: projects indoors, especially in the winter time, we're very very 447 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 5: low VOCs with our product. Okay, but you don't have 448 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 5: that harsh chemical smell that you get a lot with 449 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 5: the you know, petroleum based type of removers. Sure, okay, 450 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 5: so you don't get those harsh fumes, you don't have 451 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 5: to keep the windows open. Fully, it's a much easier, 452 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 5: much safer project. Then. 453 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, you read those old cans and it was like 454 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 1: turn off your furnace burner and open your windows. Well 455 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: I'm not doing that at thirty exactly exactly. 456 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 5: And you know, non flammability is important as well. You 457 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 5: know those other products we'd mentioned, like you just said, 458 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 5: turn everything off. You don't want to spark, you don't 459 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 5: want to fire. You just want to be able to 460 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 5: do the job the way you want to do it right. 461 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 1: Right, So let me reverse just a little bit, because 462 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: these you feel away one that you were talking about 463 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: and then the smarts rip Advantage Advanced or pro. There 464 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: are really two different, big, different products. 465 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 2: And I guess correct. 466 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,959 Speaker 1: Dumont Global is a global company and it's sold around 467 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: the world, and there's some big structures that I know 468 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: Dumont Global was involved in. It was like stripping the 469 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: Niffel Tower is not what I would consider a small job. 470 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. 471 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 5: So yeah, so Eiffel Tower is one of the projects 472 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 5: are using our product down. They've used it on the 473 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 5: Brooklyn Bridge. One of the cool ones is the Hollywood 474 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 5: Signing California. They've used it at the Louver Museum in France, 475 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 5: the Sydney Harbor Bridge and if you're in France, the 476 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 5: Chateau de Prunand is an old chateau that was purchased 477 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 5: and these two people are rehabbing the house or chateau, 478 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 5: not a house but a and that's in Guardoo friends. 479 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 5: So yes, our products are used all around the world 480 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 5: because they weren't. They're and they're safe. 481 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. So one of the things I'm thinking. 482 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: We just had some conversations on the show regarding garage floors. 483 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 1: You know I've used for years, twenty years now. The 484 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: garage floor has become a modern day foyer, and you 485 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: know we used to talk about clean them up and 486 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: getting ridd of oil spots. 487 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 2: We still do. And now we're. 488 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: Talking about coatings on there. You know, we have the 489 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: box the POxy coatings, which I still managed and claim 490 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: that you'll be doing really well if you get four 491 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: to six years out of it. At some point you 492 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: may want to improve because science has improved in the 493 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: type of coatings and you can grind it off right 494 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: or you can strip it off. And this is kind 495 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: of where we get into, well, which one of the 496 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: those products do I use? And you do alright, test yet, 497 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: so tell me a little bit about the test it 498 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: and then tell me what product to wemove like in 499 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: epoxy coating. 500 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 5: So if you can use if it's an epoxy floor, 501 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 5: the test kit will definitely drow right down to the 502 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 5: smart script pro what we would call blue That would 503 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 5: be the product that you definitely want to use, is 504 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 5: that was designed to go after you know, dual part 505 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 5: of poxyse erothans, elastameric coatings and the more complex coatings 506 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 5: that are coming out. And again process is very simple. 507 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 5: You put it down, cover it with paper, come back script, 508 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 5: scrape it off with the paper and throw it out 509 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 5: and rinse it down with water. The nice thing about 510 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 5: all of our products, you literally use water to clean 511 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 5: the surface to get any residual off. There are other 512 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 5: products out there that you have to use after washes 513 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 5: or mineral spirits and things like that after you move, 514 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 5: so you're using a chemical to remove a chemical with ours. 515 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 5: Once you are done, you literally just use water to 516 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 5: clean that up. So you can pressure wash it off, 517 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 5: you can scrub it off, rinse it off with a 518 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 5: spray bottle if it's a smaller area. There's things I 519 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 5: brought out to my yard, hosted down with my with 520 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 5: my gardens. 521 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 2: So here's a question. 522 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever but you know, we 523 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: talk a lot about decks on this show, and I 524 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: know that's a stain, but there's also solid color stains 525 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: that are used. There's these resurfacing decks, which again I'm 526 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: not a fan of, but would your test kit identify well, 527 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: I know it would identify which strip to use, which 528 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: stripper to use. 529 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, and in that case it would be the perfect 530 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 5: time to use the test kit just to make sure 531 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 5: that's doing what you expec expected to do. And in 532 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 5: most cases, in most cases, one of the three products 533 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 5: will work. And if it's a modern deck, obviously it 534 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 5: will be Smart Strip Advanced or Smart Strip Pro. If 535 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 5: it's more of a modern deck, you know, concrete seilers 536 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 5: will work great on concrete seilers as well. 537 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 2: Well. 538 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: This is a fascinating and not to confuse people, but 539 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: the majority of coatings is going to be able to 540 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: be removed by the Smart Strip Advance correct. 541 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 5: If it's more of a modern absolutely, yeah, that is 542 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 5: one of the safest ones you'll find in the marketplace. 543 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 5: The nice thing about it doesn't have a huge horrible 544 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 5: scent or smell, and we don't mask them with other 545 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 5: sense the red, green or the blue. So so, but you. 546 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, you guys got it right, and 547 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: that's probably why you were kind of first out of 548 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: the box here. But so many other people have done 549 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: different things and their their kind of story is it 550 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: removes coatings. Well, it doesn't remove all the coatings. It's 551 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: got some bad press over the years. Other brands and 552 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: you guys now have developed a test kit where if 553 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 1: you're not sure, and most of us wouldn't be, it 554 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. You can get a test it and be 555 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: one hundred percent sure, or you can go with the 556 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 1: smart strip and probably be eighty ninety percent sure. 557 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 2: It sounds like it's a little bit of a back 558 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 2: you know. 559 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 5: We like to say you're going to narrow it down 560 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 5: to probably ninety okay, using the testkit, one of our 561 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 5: products is gonna work.

You then spend 568 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 5: a lot of money to figure out you did it incorrectly, 569 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 5: then spend a lot of money to do it again. 570 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,399 Speaker 5: We prefer you just want and done with our products. 571 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 1: So speak to me.

It doesn't take any amount of time, but 669 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: it seems something it seems a tad silly to do, 670 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: but I really recommend that you do do it, maybe 671 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 1: once a year, and that is and now would be 672 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:35,760 Speaker 1: a good time, would be too. Take a walk around 673 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: the inside of your home and concentrate in areas where 674 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: you have the vanity underneath the kitchen cabinets, by the toilet, 675 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: you have supply valves in most cases, not in every home, 676 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 1: but in most cases you'll have a shut off underneath 677 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 1: the vanity, underneath the kitchen cabinet, underneath the toilet, and 678 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: go ahead and turn those off, and then turn the 679 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 1: water on, drain it and then turn it back on 680 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: and the reason you're doing that a is to make 681 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: sure that the valve is still functioning. And when you 682 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,879 Speaker 1: turn it on and turn it off, then I want 683 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 1: you to just double check for leaks. I mean, we're 684 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 1: not trying to cause problems, but sometimes there's already an 685 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: issue and you don't know that there is an issue, 686 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 1: and you shut it off, you drain it, you close it, 687 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,320 Speaker 1: you turn it back on, and put a little piece 688 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 1: of tissue paper underneath that and just make sure there's 689 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 1: not a drip or two on there in the next 690 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 1: hour or so. 691 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 2: Is a good. 692 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,240 Speaker 1: A good way to make sure there is no problem 693 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 1: at all. Another thing unscrewing the air raider on the 694 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: end of the faucet. That's the little cap. A lot 695 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 1: of times, not a lot of times, but sometimes there'll 696 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,359 Speaker 1: be a lot of sentiment that builds up there, and 697 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: quite honestly, you're really not getting the full volume of 698 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 1: water out of your faucet just because the sentiment is 699 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 1: blocking the opening in the air rator. So those are 700 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,839 Speaker 1: a couple of little plumbing things you can do, and 701 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 1: I guess the last one is just check the drains. 702 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: I got involved in this last week and so simple, 703 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 1: and especially the vanities. The ones that are used a lot, 704 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 1: I find are maybe the problem ones. It just turned 705 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 1: the water on and make sure all the water is 706 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 1: going down the drain and not causing some black In 707 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 1: other words, it's just not draining as smooth as it 708 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 1: normally does. And I've talked about a zip it strip, 709 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:51,280 Speaker 1: a thirty inch long piece of plastic with little barbs 710 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,879 Speaker 1: on it is a great way to do it. 711 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 2: It took me this one vanity sink. It was very, 712 00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:58,280 Speaker 2: very slow. 713 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,400 Speaker 1: By the time I let the water run for maybe 714 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: thirty seconds, it was halfway up in the bowl. Well 715 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 1: there was something blocking it, and running that zippet down 716 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: there cleaned it out and you could just hear it 717 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: like somebody just unplugged it and the water went down, 718 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 1: and well it's maintained now. I won't have to worry 719 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 1: about that running slow anymore, all right.
