Ps Anybody got any opinions on how to get tire marks off a new basketball court painted surface. I think some dish detergent and let it soak then rinse with a hose? Not bad but when drive tires pivoted there are some small stains. I have got them off before. Bringing in a bigger crane subbed on Sat, to boom way over the carriage house and my rig is just a little short. Climbing craner and so what with the comm system


The Doctor recommends using a Magic Eraser. Maybe a couple boxes or something like it that uses the same principle. Don't get that **** wet!
 
That's what freaks me out about those two outrigger forestry units. Imagine working over center, off the side when that puppy let loose? No thank you. At least with two on each side, you got a chance.
 
I had tire marks all over a new long block driveway that was steep and my fkn chipper brakes kept locking up going down as I had the controller in the cab set too high after dumping. I was worried schitless until it rained hard that night....and they disappeared.

Hire it out professionally???? Where do I go? Look for a drug store bubble gum sidewalk spraying guy? In the Yellow Pages under that category?

I spoke with the owner, the largest car dealer in Cincinnati and he understands as he looks over at it with my crane and bucket in the middle of it....but I'd love to make it perfect....but won't hot spray take the color out of the surface in spots....? Arrrgh, shoulda tarped the whole giant half court surface.


You are correct, if the water is too hot you can strip the paint right off. Also, if you hold the gun too close to the surface you can strip the paint off. I would start with cool to warm water and work your way up. A decent unit will allow you to regulate the temperature.
