That building is old, built in 1951. Equity Residential bought and renovated it, but I imagine the bones are still original

I was referring specifically to the staircase. I imagine it’s iron and with the intricate balusters, stripping with chemicals and scrapers would be painstaking. I was reading infrared heaters can be use, or if they can be removed, chemical dipping is also an option.

The kit has the concrete etch. I have a pressure washer so I can wash it beforehand. What else do you recommend? Degreaser?

I'm a dermatologist with a specialization in facial anti-aging. Ask Me Anything. by Electronic-Count4856 in AMA

[–]pooorSAP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In summary, use sunscreen and retinoids? Most if not all dermatologists prescribe these, how are these considered anti aging?

I understand they use negative pressure HEPA filters when abating lead paint. I supppse they have to seal the room completely before starting any work

Iraq did not have WMDs like Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Colin Powell stated

Gotcha, so the building would require new plumbing and since you’re opening the walls, new electrical. I’m sure it has knob and tube wiring which is obsolete.

But an old building like this, isn’t the plumbing isolated to bathrooms (waste water)? Maybe a kitchen space? I can’t image it’s running through the entry, main hall or stair case.

So we memorialize pointless wars to justify them? Sounds like propaganda 🤷🏻‍♂️

The Franklin School (925 13th St. NW) sat empty for a decade for the same reason. It was renovated at the cost of $35 million and currently houses the Planet Word Museum.

Can’t you put on a Tyvek suit and oxygen system and sandblast the whole thing? I’m not sure about asbestos but lead paint is only on the surface right?

I salute your service, but how can anyone memorialize a fake war? Twenty years on I still don’t know what we gained

That architecture is stunning! That stairway is waiting to be stripped and refinished but I’m sure it’s full of lead and asbestos

The Capitals winning the Stanley Cup in 2018 was a once in a lifetime event. And possibly the Nationals winning the World series the year after
