VCT....

[Nomad74]

$3600 in one day?

Think again moneybags..

You get that in a day of cleaning a recliner chair in Santa Cruz.
No money is worth VCT.

I spent all day fixing the rear brakes on my El Camino. When I pulled the drum all the brake parts fell onto the ground. It was a real bear. It took me all day to figure out how to put it all back together. I feel i am now an expert on drum brakes. I had to get this fixed so I could get to your house.

Whoever designed drum brakes was either a genius or a sadist.

Some of you people are nitwits..

Mop, scrub, wand rinse. Only.

My house?

My house?

Did you expect me to park in the Walmart parking lot?

$3600 for a 3rd rate job? Can you say Hack?

Your reading comprehension is as poor as your ability to mix a five gallon bucket.

And you're as intuitive as a dyslexic labradoodle. Do the job correctly or walk away.. Since you obviously lack the skills to do it properly or sell the job that needs to be done it's going to look like a dog's breakfast. Don't shoot the messenger because you don't like the message.

 

[Willy P]

And at the very least burnish it after it dries.

 

[Nomad74]

Maybe lay a layer of Saranwrap down and call it shiny.

Im just giving you crap. But you know that.

A burnisher would do a lot to make that better. But all those hairs in the wax, man oh man.

 

[Dolly Llama]

he's a cheap skate,

He only want 4000 [sf]

$3600

that can't be what you're charging him is it???


if so......he's paying you near a buck-a-ft to wash dirt off an abused, no finish VCT floor??

doesn't sound like a cheap skate to me
sounds more like a dumbazz ...and hopefully blind


.L.T.A.

barter.

Tom bailed. Ride is off since I can't let you or Jim drive the other buggy.

 

[Dolly Llama]

barter.

and hopefully blind......

Dude, he did the hair job and is happy with it.....

 

[Hack Attack]

vct isnt difficult it just has zero shortcuts to make it look good..

If you're both on the same page walking in

you might be on the same page walking out

Dude. No one told me. Jeeze. Well at least it motivated me to buy a better sleeping bag and fix the brakes on my car.

 

[Cleanworks]

Because he did it. Wait until he finds out a so called professional can't do it any better. Barter is the same as cash. What's he going to say the next day when he sees there is no difference and he's out $3600 in tuition fees?

you guys are as dense as rocks.

Hey, it's not often that we get a "shame Mikey night".

or just shitty communicators who are projecting your inability to pre-qualify on to me.

We're not setting up a hack job whixh it appears you may end up with.You're getting solid advice from people that know about what you're attempting to do . Where you go with it is up to you. At the very least burnish it because sure as shite the little bit of gleam will come off . How do I know this? Experience.ls a great teacher.

 

[dealtimeman]

I just wish I lived closer so I could come help you with this.

 

[Desk Jockey]

That needs stripping and finish applied. Anything less and you'll end up with a bag of cat shit. I'm doing a post office tomorrow. I'll take some pics of a job done properly. Nice pic of Chavez Larry. I see he's shaving now.

Willy you can KISS it as usual. ☺

I’m sort of close and I don’t want to help with VCT.

 

[steve_64]

I like doing vct but just don't like the pay.

Scrub with tile cleaner and malgrit brush then hit it with floor wand. Throw on a couple coats if sealer wax and call it good.

You're nuts if you don't recoat it with at least 2 coats.

 

[Mikey P]

Just one of the reasons he doesnt want it recoated is the massive amount of dust (and hair) up above on the exposed HVAC..

Huh???



judging by his wax job, I figure all the HVAC returns look like this

lta

 

[Bruce Humphrey]

Heading into page 3 and still almost everyone thinks Mike is going to fix the wax problem with all the hair in it

 

[dealtimeman]

He could fix the majority of the hair and crap in the finish without completely stripping the floor all the way down but it’s still a lot of work.

From the way most are responding to this thread, most don’t understand how floor finish actually goes down.

Most floor finishes don’t actually go down and adhere like one would consider individual coats of a coating. Instead they build upon the previous solids from the previous coat or “layer”, with a bit more solids.

You don’t get good build until you get at least 4 costs.
