Stripping decks is not an easy task but if you want professional looking results Chris Carson Camo Jersey , your going to have to learn how to do it properly. Like most deck refinishing jobs, excellent PREPARATION is the KEY to success. Prep right, and the deck will turn out GREAT. Rush through prep, skip a step (or two) to save money andor time Russell Wilson Camo Jersey , and the deck won't look nearly as good.


Thorough cleaning of any deck or fence is essential to get good results. If the wood was previously sealed, the common practice is to strip off the old sealer. We do this to get back to the actual wood. All sealers are designed to bond best to the wood itself (rather than to bond to an aged layer of the old sealer). By stripping off at least the ?coating? portion of the old sealer, we can eliminate most reasons for premature sealer failure.


If the ?coating? portion of the old sealer remains on the surface, the new deck sealer can penetrate down into the wood. This results in a couple of situations that could lead to premature failure of the new finish.


The first of these problems is a reduction of the permeability of the overall sealer layers. Permeability refers to the ability of the sealer to breathe. If we clog the surface with several layers of sealer Ugo Amadi Rush Jersey , each layer comes a little closer to closing off the wood from breathing. In that case, the wood retains humidity. This could lead to rot, as discovered in a recent class-action lawsuit against a major manufacturer of sealers. This could also lead to peeling and flaking, as the trapped humidity tries to push its way up through the layers.


The second problem is bonding. As stated earlier Phil Haynes Rush Jersey , most deck sealers are designed to bond to wood fibers to some degree. Many sealers can also bond to themselves (such as a second coat). If we try to apply one sealer over top of another brand (or type) of sealer, there is no guarantee that the new sealer will bond to the old sealer. If this occurs, the new sealer could flake and peel off within months. Most sealer manufacturers are reluctant to stand behind the performance of their product unless it is applied to bare wood.


Further, sealers that are designed to penetrate Gary Jennings Jr Rush Jersey , when forced to dry on the surface without penetrating, will fail by design. What I mean here is that a penetrant is not meant to stand up to wear like a coating does, so when you force a penetrant to act as a coating it fails. This happens when the penetrant can't penetrate ? and it dries on the surface.


There is at least one more reason to think about stripping the deck every time you run across a previously- sealed deck. The reason you are being called in to do your magic is that the customer is unhappy with the performance andor looks of the current sealer. Leaving that old sealer in place seriously limits how good you can make the deck look with a new finish. If you leave old stains, the new look won't be much better than the old look.


For all of these reasons Cody Barton Rush Jersey , seasoned professionals always strip decks that have old sealer on them. Exceptions are made if the Deck Tech was the person who applied the previous sealer and he or she knows exactly what the sealer is on the wood ? AND the sealer manufacturer says it's OK to recoat over an old layer.


How do you know if there is an existing sealer on the wood? Believe me, it is not always obvious. Cheaper products contain little or no UV protection, so a deck can look like a grayed-out neglected deck within a year of being sealed with an inexpensive product ? particularly if it was a clear sealer. There are two things professional Deck Techs do to find out if there is any existing sealer that should be stripped off the wood. The first is to inspect areas that get no sun. A hint of color on the underside of a board is a sign of previous sealer. The second is really the acid test for existing sealer and is called the Splash Test. Sprinkle a little water from your fingertips on to the dry wood on a vertical surface. If the droplets soak into the wood right away, you don't need to strip. If they form little droplets on the surface of the wood D.K. Metcalf Rush Jersey , then you have to strip the wood.

I would like to focus this week on some vocabulary habits that can turn single women off and hurt your chances for getting women attracted to you for love and romance.


Some women will judge you by how you talk to them and what you say. Unfortunately some men have a very small vocabulary and use certain words over and over again between sentences that can become very annoying to women.


What are these words that men mistakenly repeat over and over that are a source of annoyment and can actually make you appear to be stupid because you lack a vocabulary? Here are the main ones and you must try to eliminate them from you vocabulary when speaking to single women:




you know


you know what I mean


you know what I'm saying


do you understand what I'm saying


using the word "like" to begin a sentence


I know that


I already knew that


umm


yep


nope


and dah


These phrases are ok to use every once in awhile. What I'm talking about is repeating these phases in almost every other sentence. I'm sure you know people that have these annoying conversation habits. Maybe this is even you?


Also, I might add that you should never use cuss words in your conversation when you first get to know a woman. If she's offended by foul language, this can turn her off to the point that she will have no interest in dating you.


Please don't mumble your words either. Speak clearly and don't talk with your hand over your mouth. And of course Marquise Blair Rush Jersey , if you're out on a lunch or dinner date, don't talk with your mouth full.


P.S. - In all fairness, if the girl you're with makes these same vocabulary blun.
