The JASCO paint remover and the Klean-Strip Graffiti Remover did not work so well. So I decided to just leave the Graffiti Remover on for 2 day (because it rained yesterday). It looked like after 48 hours the Graffiti Remover actually pulls some paint off but still does a crappy job. I then pressure washed the area and you can still see that it is D.J.’s B’Day.
This might not be the best method but this should work. I purchased two 30 foot Master Lock security ropes and 16 Master Locks. With this method I am able to remove them to dig out the pits.
Someone stole 8 of my pit grates, which is great! Nothing but rain all week then someone spray paints the building and then the grates. Great week and it is not even over!
I hate DJ. Is that a bad thing to say? I tried some JASCO paint remover and also some Klean-Strip Graffiti Remover. I hate this crap, which never seems to works. I guess everyday will be D.J.’s birthday.
Interesting problem today: the timer said “STOP”. I have never seen that before. I am not sure what “STOP” means but I turned the vacuum off then on and everything worked fine again.
My “A Clean Car is a Happy Car!” was blinking on and off nonstop for no reason. I checked the eyes and there was no transmitting beam so the problem was with the Banner eye. I was going to swap it with the under carriage eye when I figured out that the wires had just cracked out of the wire nut, which was very weird but good because the eye was not bad. So I attached the wires and everything was okay!
It has been raining all the time so you know what that means! Fun with mud! I got to dig out 2 pits today and tomorrow will probably be the same.
I had a RO hose leak today it was right where the hose and fitting meet.
Another clogged drain and it ate my claw (3rd picture) somehow.
This was really scary stuff today. My 1″ Bob valve makes the tank leak but I am afraid of touching it because it will fall apart. (I need to purchase another valve because I can not find my spare.) The other scary thing today was the railroad spike I found in one of the bays. Weird.
