A few months back Larry refered a job to me that required Hot water and a lift. Here are some pics. It is a Airport hanger for private Jets and military planes and helicopters. The building was 5 stories at the peak.

As a thank you I took him and his wife out to Arby's.

And made us split a sandwich... Tell the whole story. :slap:
 
All kidding aside. Besides the Arby's, kory also took my wife and I out last Friday night for a GREAT dinner at Maggiano's in Tampa. During dinner Kory handed me an envelope with an undisclosed amount of cash as a thank you for the referral... I felt like we were doing a mob deal in the middle of a very upscale Italian restaurant LOL...Thank You very much Kory. We had a great dinner. And YES,,,,there was Cheesecake involved. :sarcastic:
 
if that is true... why Did I have to listen to your 30 minute story on how Kory took you and the wives out... to a fancy Itlay resturaunt and the best you've had in a long time and you went on to explain the entire menu....strike me dead if I'm lying ...Beep

See how you jump to conclusions before reading? :slap: Read the post above your ranting please. Hahaha!

That's an interesting looking Job Kory, Larry told me a little about it. Was the dirt grease, dirt and grease/jet exhaust, or a combination of both ? Did it respond to a chemical spray, or did you have to hit it with pressure ? The reason I ask is when I lived in Seattle, where Boeing Aircraft are made, I knew a guy who cleaned Air Craft Hangars. He said he did it mostly with Chemicals, and a high flow pressure rinse. Man, if you had to pressure wash every inch of that job, that's a lot of work!
Nice Job, BTW !

That wasn't the only one Chris. There were actually 3 like that needed cleaning. He did all three. I didn't envy him on that one. Sometimes ya just gotta know your limits and when to flip certain jobs. The good thing is ya gotta try to keep it in the family. He did a great job and they were very happy.
 
It was a combination of exhaust, mildew, things I dont know. The chems helped loosen it but yes every sq inch had to have high pressure to remove the layers of gunk. Every nook and cranny top to bottom. It went from grey to orange with the chem then the High pressure took it down to white. Then we sprayed a chem they provided to seal it.
