You guys have been there for me so far...

[BlueBliss]

...but this question I'm sure, for the lack of a better word, sucks! I'm just getting into this line of work and I need to know a lot about chemicals. If any one can compile a list or send me to a list of jobs and the chemicals suggested to do them I would appreciate it. I would like to know what is best for removing gum, tar, rust, lime, fuel, oil, and all the other stains and messes. Also brands of chemicals and measured solutions would be a great help. I'm trying to find or create a book for future reference. I couldn't find anything about this in the library. Thank you for bareing with me!

i dont speak for everyone

but you should just do a search on each chem or surface you want to clean. Everyone uses diffrent chems and has diffrent opinions, that is why this site is here.
You need to put some effort into this to get something out of it.
Cleaner Times[www.cleaner times.com] had a good artical on chemistry this month.
An easy way to get you started would be Delcos site and use the "chem usage" section on top.
or envriospec.com to see what they have for sale.
Your asking for information that's all ready here you just need to look.

Thankyou for your reply

Ron, I've been looking for this information and I have collected a few answers to my question. I was just curious if there was anything publised or any one have easy access to such a wide rage of information. I do think you have pointed me in the right direction though. Thank you very much!

 

[BlueBliss]

I found what i was looking for.

Thank you Ron! The site http://www.dcs1.com/del/chemguid.html had most of what i was looking for. Gum is still a mystery to me though.

 

[Mike Hughes]

Then start a new thread and ask about gum.......

Good luck!

 

[ron p]

gum

most will reply "hot water and a 15 deg tip"
then you'll try it. Then you'll come back and ask about the "shadow" Then people will post paint thinner,limonlene,wd40,degreasers,ect...
i will post check out www.prosoco.com property maint.
There, i just saved you the trouble and i hope ive helped.

Most of the folks doing P/W work have spent years searching, collecting data and trying formulations for different cleaning applications. I'm afraid there is not one place to get all the info from. However the good news is that there are several BB's that have great information - but it will take time to compile and pick thru it.

Ron has already given you a good start and I'll see if I can add to it for you.

Thank you guys very much!

 

[Steven Rowlett]

correct address

There is no "e" in my name . The correct listing is www.rowlettpressure.com

 

[Paul B.]

There should be!

Many pardons. My creative spelling gets out of hand from time to time.

Can I get 1/2 credit for effort?
You received 4th billing Mr. Rowlett.

[Paul B.]

I edited the list and made two other corrections.

Again, many regrets!

[Steven Rowlett]

Thanks for thinking of me Paul. It is the same spelling as the little ole town in Texas.

 

[Greg Rentschler]

Thats ok... Steve started another top level domain (.con ).

Psst.... {{look back at your correction of paul}}

 

[Steven Rowlett]

Thanks Greg, I corrected Paul and had a typo. Maybe I have it right this time. It goes to prove " I can talk better than I can type". I do like the bit about being endorsed by "CONS"
