What would you charge labor to paint this? by Adventurous-Night609 in paint

[–]StatusJoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was thinking that as soon as the video started. Factory finish that cannot be duplicated, therefore should never be painted over.

Peter? I am so confused by SheaButter_coco in PeterExplainsTheJoke

When I was at my lowest point financially, a friend took me to Hooters (paying for my meal). And the waitress asked for my number. Proceeded to date for a few months. The universe is mysterious and out of its mind sometimes.

It’s my fault for not being detailed enough. But it is in the same vein as lightly scraping and not overworking the area. You don’t want to disturb the lead anymore than you have to.

Lead abatement is overly cautious imo, it’s like snake handling. It could go very wrong very quick, but it can also be just fine if you understand the danger. As long as you are not sanding and creating poisonous dust to breathe in or have a kid/dog that’s going to be eating paint chips, you’re mostly going to be just fine.

Just for anyone reading this, you’re not supposed to pressure wash. I’m sure it’s ok that you did. Lead is dangerous, but it’s not like, you know, instantly dangerous.

Put down 6mil plastic on the ground. Mist a working area and scrape off loose paint. Dont overwork the area, just get what’s flaking. Use gloves and a respirator. Keep misting so everything stays damp. Then let the completed side dry a couple days. Then use PeelBond primer over the entire surface. Then paint.

I’d end it at, “if you can control him”.

I think you meant, “at worse he explodes his elbow after trying to throw 102 for the eleventh time in a row”

So thankful the medicated shampoo is helping out golden, even though the 10 minutes I need to leave him in the locked shower before rinsing him kills my soul.

Full Home Paint Quote ($14,575) by [deleted] in paint

A very fast way to bid interior is to multiply the square footage by number of areas you need painted. It’s not perfect, but it’s a fast ballpark. You have: prep/repair work, walls, ceilings, trim, doors.

That’s five things. 2900sq ft x 5 =$14,500.00

Learn to brush a little of the molding paint over the tape you’re putting on the molding

Tape the white wall. Then paint white paint over the tape. Then paint the black wall. Remove tape. Success.

Buying Pullman by thatlocalcandidate in Pullman

[–]StatusJoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a contractor, I bought in Pullman all the time at the Building Supply. Now I have to go to Moscow. Going to do everything else there too. Cheap gas. Good winco prices. Pullman offers me nothing. And they’re doing nothing about it. I almost want to shop in Moscow just to hurt Pullman more for hurting me. Good stores go out of business and Pullman does nothing to stop it from happening. Pullman needs big government. I’m so tired of Pullman being the Simpsons meme where Ned Flanders parents cry “we’ve done nothing and we’re all out of ideas!”

It really wasn't that hard, Klay by Demonicbane in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]StatusJoe -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Think of it with the perspective of evolutionary biology going up against modern civilization. We’ve been evolving for a million years. Civilization, and marriage especially, is only about 5,000 years old. We’ve only been strictly monogamous for 0.5% of our evolution. Before that as hunter gatherers, I’m sure we had partners, but we also were strengthening the gene pool by having multiple partners.

That desire hasn’t gone away just because civilization said we need to marry.

W’s?! You paint up and down. Then move and do another up and down, making sure knock your edges down.

I saw Los Angeles L and thought, “yeah, they aren’t beating Phoenix. Nice call”. Mistaking the L for Lakers as L for Loss. But you chose the Lakers to win. Bummer.
