Jim, get in now to secure your spot. I'll list you and get your SEO going so when you get your page up you'll be top spot within days. There are only about 20 spots left on the free ride before we'll need to charge for all of these services! It's OK if you don't have a website now as long as you have one up in a reasonable amount of time.

I finally was able to test your product according to instructions... and man does that work!

I do need to call you about the test on the Pharmaceutical Company interior Sto Decocoat flooring system we discussed.

Love the product.

We will be adding our rust removal page as soon as I get a chance to talk again so we can know how to set it up.

Here is a quick siding rust removal we did yesterday. Got an extra $50 bucks on the job for a quick spray of F9 and 5 minutes of patience. We are using it as an add to the softwash and have been very successful in closing a few large homes that have rust/stains on siding and stucco. Here are some pics.

If your a UAMCC member check out our interview with Craig of Front 9 in the town hall of the forum.
I wanted to let you all know that when you see those condensate drains from the ac unit leaving rust stains, this usually means the ac unit is damaged. You should tell your customers to have the blower unit checked. Many times the coil is rusting away causing the stain and signaling the end of the ac coils life.
We treat all rust in this manner. We tell customers if they want rust removed, they need to also fix the source to prevent its return. This is true for metal railings, vents etc. and may lead to another service for you or your network.

John Aloisio · SoftWash Systems 5-Star Professional

Thank Bill. I will keep it in mind

Michael Derose · SoftWash Systems Certified Applicator

John did you try to remove the rust from the foundation?

John Aloisio · SoftWash Systems 5-Star Professional

No that is an add on that they want to do in the future. Just the siding. The homeowner did not really care because you can see the foundation after they plant shrubs. I have been getting an added charge for the foundation when we do the house if they want to remove the rust. Most people don't care because it is mostly visible in the back of the house due to the landscaping in the front. The others are just too cheap.

Removing rust under metal fences

John Aloisio · SoftWash Systems 5-Star Professional

One part F9 to 3 parts water let it sit for about 3-4 minutes . Some of the deep ones might need a little second coating. We have been doing a light first coat and seeing what happens.

Dan Dykstra · Senior Member

Great looking results everyone.
