How can you solve the ice problem? 26 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 2: And you know every week you kind of make front 27 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 2: of our front of our friend Randy. Randy was giving 28 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 2: me some really good advice, you know, talking to Rice 29 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 2: or Randy earlier. Because people they call up and say, hey, 30 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 2: I want you to you know, can you come over 31 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 2: and knocked the icicles off my head or chop off 32 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 2: my roof or something. That's like the worst thing you 33 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 2: can do. I mean you should. You can get the 34 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 2: snow off, you can do that kind of stuff, but 35 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 2: don't go up to the hammer or hatchet knocked ice off. 36 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:26,199 Speaker 2: That just makes it worse. 37 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,199 Speaker 1: If you do call Randy Miller to come. 38 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: Help, Yeah, well no you will be calling him. 39 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, you will be if you do that. 40 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 2: But well but just you know, people say, well, how 41 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 2: can you prevent the icicles? And it's a lot to 42 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 2: do with you know, It's like if you call Randy, 43 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: that's what they do. They'll come out there a little 44 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: infrared cameras whatever, they can figure it out. That solved 45 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 2: the problem. So they can't really, you know, I can't 46 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: guarantee that's not going to be icicles because you just 47 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 2: that's just nature, bicycles or just part of life. But 48 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: they can help reduce it. You know, there's a lot 49 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: of air ceiling because like one time I asked them 50 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 2: to cone to my dad's. I was come, my dad's 51 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: also is leaking. Roof's leaking even over it's not, it's 52 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 2: not leaking. You got a air ceiling problems, you know, 53 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 2: insulation in the attic venting. Get your roof fented. You know, 54 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: if you make your roof fence properly, it gets cold, 55 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 2: it doesn't melt. Because what happens how ice damning works 56 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 2: is it melts and then we get see the edge 57 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 2: what overhangs are right, it freezes again and that's what 58 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: calls ice damming. So you want to do is you 59 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,839 Speaker 2: want to roof to say the same temperature the whole 60 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 2: roof and they want to go away. 61 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 1: Man, So my my, my feet are frozen.

And he 209 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: just took one of the really good dudes in this world. 210 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. 211 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 4: Like he he was my first class my freshman year 212 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 4: for one of my theology classes. And I loved him 213 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 4: to death, Like you said, one of those rare, just 214 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 4: beyond exceptional human beings. 215 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: And and what I love about him the most is 216 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: he's really honest. And he will tell you what he's feeling, 217 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: tell you what he's thinking, and and you know what, 218 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: and he'll sugarcoat it a little bit. But I said, no, 219 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: I said a lot of grade school games and he 220 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: would be yelling at the refs. They'd be looking at me. 221 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: I was like, that wasn't me. That was the theology teacher. 222 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 4: And Marquette is playing down the sideline one hundred percent. 223 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go yelling. 224 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 3: Hey. 225 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: Do you guys do more business with interior exterior paint? 226 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 4: I'd say, like in the Milwaukee market, definitely more interior. Yeah, 227 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 4: just because it's cold a lot more of the year now. 228 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 4: If you go down south, like Florida, Arizona, a lot 229 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 4: of those warmer states. It's probably more fifty to fifty, 230 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 4: if not waiting more on the xterior side because you 231 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 4: have great weather all year long. But Milwaukee a little trickier. 232 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you do a lot more with the exteriors. 233 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 2: And and he's talking about too, you know, like the 234 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 2: sightings companies still sightings.

I give them a list, 577 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: and these are the kind of songs you can hear 578 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: if you go over to Brooks Side Baptist Church looking 579 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: for a local church. Parker, you're right down the block 580 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: our special guest in studio. Look he is, he's moving 581 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 1: up to chain sureman Williams. But he is richest son 582 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: and he is Bryce's husband, and I love that, Hey, Parker. 583 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 1: Before we go, I went to a break. I know 584 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 1: Bingo has gotten a couple of text messages regarding bathroom ceilings. 585 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, bathroom ceilings, hear it? Yeah, Well they said a 586 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 2: paint keeps peeling in their bathroom. What painter do they 587 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 2: use to fix it? 588 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 4: So, I'd say very common with bathrooms, honestly. Usually my 589 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 4: first questions from there is is there a window in 590 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 4: the bathroom? Is there a ceiling fan? Because if you 591 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 4: don't have those, you really can't ventilate your bathroom. So 592 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 4: if you're like me and you like to take a 593 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 4: nice twenty minute shower with a negative five out, sure 594 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 4: bathroom gets all steamy if you have nowhere for that 595 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 4: steam to go, Usually it's just going to absorb up 596 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 4: into the ceiling. Talking with even concrete or stucco coatings, Basically, 597 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 4: that moisture gets behind that paint film. Once it evaporates 598 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 4: down the road, it can be a week, it can 599 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 4: be six months. All of a sudden you start getting bubbles, 600 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 4: starts peeling off. So really a lot of times it's 601 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 4: kind of the environment that it's in. Now, if you 602 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 4: have a ceiling fan, you have a window and you 603 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 4: open it, you have the fan running, it's still peeling paint. 604 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 4: The best way I say it is paint is not smart. 605 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 4: You know, Paint's just paint, right, So if something like 606 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 4: that's going on and the conditions are right, there's usually 607 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 4: an underlying issue. But now to answer your question, like 608 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 4: maybe you don't have a ceiling fan in there so 609 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 4: you can't really ventilate it. We have an interior line 610 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 4: called our Duration Home. Basically it's a moisture and mildy 611 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 4: resistant coating, so for bathrooms, kitchens, powder rooms. 612 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 2: I think that's what they have. The question is that 613 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 2: they want to know what kind of paint should they use? 614 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 4: YEP, So with that, I'd say our Duration interior line. 615 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: Should they prime the walls? 616 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 4: So if you're having any issues on your walls, whether 617 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 4: it's INTI your exterior, I always recommend priming. People don't 618 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 4: think it's always necessary. But take it from someone who 619 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 4: sells paint and has finally bought a house so he's learning. 620 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: How to paint. There you go. 621 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 2: It makes a difference, man, Okay, prime, I just like 622 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 2: you know, prime is so important that when we do 623 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 2: a job, people say you don't have to prime and 624 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 2: paint it. We primate no matter what, because I just don't. Ye, 625 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 2: I don't trust the homeowner or a lot of contracts 626 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 2: to use the right primer for paint because you know, 627 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 2: you got the PHR plaster as long and we can 628 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 2: talk about that. But yeah, if you don't, if you 629 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 2: don't reduce that, the paint, it just it bleeds through. 630 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 1: Hey, if people ask you how to choose the right 631 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: paint color for their home, is that just a personal option? 632 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 1: Like I think everything should be kelly green. That's just 633 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: that whole Irish saying mcgiffern and O'faehi, my wife's mad 634 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 1: or my my my mom's maiden name. Yeah, everything should 635 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 1: be kelly green. However, I don't I know everybody's gonna 636 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: have the same feeling I have with that. But if 637 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: people come into your stores, you're your your guys working 638 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: in there, and Gal's working. 639 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 2: There, well, go over by the chart and pick one out. 640 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 2: Do you ever see the chart? 641 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,679 Speaker 4: Oh, there's five thousands over there. But as much direction 642 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 4: is go find some out in the cornfield. 643 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: I need. I need somebody to give me three options, 644 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 1: right that that for men. My final decision and stuff 645 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 1: is always maybe right. So we had to pick out 646 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: the hardware for new cabinets at a home that over 647 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: on eighty eighth Street, and I'm not kidding. I ended 648 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: up going to the car and in the fetal position, 649 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 1: it said to my wife, you just I don't care 650 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: what you pick.

I mean, honestly a lot of times kind of 672 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 4: go back to your point. It is personal preference. It's 673 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 4: your home. Like I can have my two cents on it, 674 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 4: but that's what I like. It doesn't mean you're gonna 675 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 4: like the colors I picked. 676 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: I can tell you someth too, something that they do 677 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 2: it that we like. They'll sell you small sample cams 678 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 2: to try it, because a little swatch looks a different 679 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 2: thing when you do it. When you paint apart next 680 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 2: to a window instead of frame like I s, they'll say, 681 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 2: you know you can't. It's really cheap. 682 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean even like again, like our color chips, 683 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 4: it's paper. I mean, when you put the sample or 684 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 4: a paint on, it's gonna look a little more identical. 685 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 4: But when people hold up a piece of paper and 686 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 4: they're like, it's not the exact same, you know, paring applest. 687 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 2: Orangers you know, without interrupting them anyways. That's like when 688 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 2: you do when you paint something that's textured, and it's 689 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 2: way different than it is when it's on flat. Yeah, 690 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 2: changes the whole. It's like, hold up, you could take 691 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 2: a flat piece, you can paint a while flat, and 692 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 2: you paint the while that's texture next with the same color, 693 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 2: and people think you get two different color paints. 694 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: And Parker guys like me, who can't. I can't see 695 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: it until it's fully done. Like I don't have that gift. 696 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: It's so if we paint three different lines and use okay, 697 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: rather than taking the piece of paper and putting it there, 698 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: I still can't and I have to. I either am 699 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: working with somebody that can kind of guide me through it, 700 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: or my wife has a pretty good eye with with colors. 701 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 1: Do you find that you're working more with with the 702 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: women for the home or the man. 703 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 3: Or every single time? 704 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: Really? 705 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean on the weekends. 706 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 4: I've seen it so many times where mom and dad 707 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 4: come in with the kid. We're again we're helping them 708 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 4: with colors, kind of figuring out what they're looking for. 709 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 4: I'm no different than you, Mike, where I've done the 710 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 4: with with my wife.

Please send a when you're done. 716 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 2: When we used to have that little showroom up in 717 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 2: and told for a while, uh, that's what we did. 718 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 2: It was like, just if you come here without your wife, 719 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 2: bring a note. 720 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: Bring a note, Yeah, bring out. 721 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 2: That saying you have permission to pick stuff out. 722 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: If your weapon is not in your jacket, because you're 723 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: not getting in. 724 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 3: If you come in and. 725 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 4: Your wife is not there and we're looking for colors, 726 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 4: one of my first questions is usually is there someone 727 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 4: else that is probably gonna want to help you with 728 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 4: this decision? And they're like, yep, I need to bring 729 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 4: these back and have her take a peek at them. 730 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. Hey, and I got a text. The 731 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: best finish, the best paint finish for different rooms? Is 732 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: there for you know, a different paint finish for the 733 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: bathroom than it would be for the kitchen. Yep, would 734 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: be for the bedroom. When you tell when people ask 735 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: you what's the best finish for different rooms, what do 736 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: you tell them? 737 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 3: So it's kind of a multifaceted answer. 738 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 4: I would say it is personal preference because really, when 739 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 4: I hear finish, like, we call it sheen on our side. Okay, 740 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 4: Really what that means is basically just the level of 741 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 4: shine you'll see when you put the paint on the walls. 742 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 4: So if you're in a bathroom or kitchen and again 743 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 4: you get grease on it, you get moisture on or steam, 744 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 4: you want to be able to wipe it down. You 745 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 4: want something that has a little shine, like a satin 746 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 4: or eggshell, because it's a little more washable, a little 747 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 4: more durable. You can scrub it a lot easier. Now, 748 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 4: if you're doing a ceiling, you're never touching it up. 749 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 4: Stuff's not getting up there. You can put a flat 750 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 4: pain on there because it hides better. You're not going 751 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 4: to see him perfections. But now then you get to 752 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 4: trim cabinets. Some people like that duller look, which is 753 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 4: still kind of a satin. Some people like a little 754 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 4: more shine, which is a semi gloss. 755 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: So a lot of too many options for a guy 756 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 1: like me. 757 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you got colors right now, what kind of sheine 758 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 2: do you want? 759 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 4: You? 760 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: Oh, that's a whole yeah, back in the fetal position 761 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: for for sure. 762 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 4: The worst part about that, and this is across the 763 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 4: entire industry when we talk finish, everyone has different names 764 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 4: for their finish, whether it's Holman Bend for Moore Sherwin Williams. 765 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 4: You kind of have your standard flat eggshell, semi gloss, 766 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 4: and then you have velvet, then you have matt and 767 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 4: then you have pearl and all these. 768 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 2: But the finish makes a difference too. If you take 769 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 2: if you paint a semi gloss finish over something that's flat, 770 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 2: it sticks all over. Yeah, the same thing the other 771 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: way too.

Obviously you can't paint this time 942 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,919 Speaker 1: of year. Would you highly recommend not doing? Thank you? Yeah, 943 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: there you go. That's about as honest as you can 944 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: get people, it seems to me, at least with with 945 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:40,760 Speaker 1: the circles I run in. People talk a lot about 946 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 1: trying to paint brick, right a brinck home, brick home? 947 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 1: Can can? Did you recommend that? And that's a whole 948 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 1: different animal right. 949 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 4: A little bit. So, I mean, you can paint brick 950 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 4: just fine. Now, what I usually say with it, and 951 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 4: Bingal I think has kind of gone on this too, 952 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 4: is like whether it's a hydro phoba coating or even 953 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 4: like a solid stain, because with concrete, stucco, any real masonry, 954 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 4: you need to let it breathe so you can paint it. 955 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 4: It'll it'll last, it'll hold up, but eventually it will 956 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 4: peel because paint's just it's a film on it. Moisture's 957 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,760 Speaker 4: gonna penetrate at some point, versus different hydrophobic coatings, different 958 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 4: stains that lets the concrete breathe. So usually I'm going 959 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 4: to recommend a solid stain before a paint. But then 960 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 4: that's where I talk to my contractor maybe talk to 961 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 4: the homeowner kind of just see what they're looking for, 962 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:32,760 Speaker 4: make sure it fits the bill for them. But usually 963 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 4: I start with something that's gonna let the stucco concrete breathe. 964 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,879 Speaker 4: Paint's usually my last one I go to for that. 965 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 1: Hey, it's so trends and I don't know if you know, 966 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,359 Speaker 1: and we didn't talk about this and I didn't tee 967 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 1: up for it.

Now, I'd say in the in the commercial landscape, 1023 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: without a doubt, that is a very big thing for 1024 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 1: like low VOC coatings. There's a couple of different certifications 1025 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 1: nationally out there, like one's MPI Green Guard where it 1026 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 1: basically says this is a low VOC like a not 1027 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,799 Speaker 1: very toxic paint, not a lot of fumes. So for 1028 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 1: commercial landscapes, when you have different facilities, they're a lot 1029 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: more keyed into the eco friendly paints.
