Powder mix

Be sure to get us some before and after pics. 2% direct would probably do it and if they used aluminum nails on it and no rusty nail spots citric acid lot better on environment and cheaper and will neutralize it just fine.

Will citric brighten as well as neutralize. There’s a few rust spots but nothing major. The only major obstacle is clean rinse water. His well is deep but the water is really bad. I preped his barn for paint a few years ago and it was about the death of my machine.

Did not know this.

yes. It’s right next to ox on ph chart

Awesome I’m going to run all 3 in a few real bad spots and see who’s the winner

If you have nail head rust stains though, the oxalic will work better at eliminating them.

I’m not a smart man…

Here’s a probably dumb question… how do you test the wood’s pH?

I was watching some veterinarian show the other night and he had a portable hot water system mounted on his ladder rack that was kind of neat. It was basically just an 8’ long piece of maybe 6" pvc painted black. On the end towards the cab he had an elbow facing up with a screw in cap. The other end was just capped off but there was a hose barb screwed into the end with about 6’ of garden hose and a spray nozzle. He was a mobile vet so didn’t always have running water.

Found a picture of something similar but the forum won’t let me upload anything for some reason. Just google (or bing) ladder rack pvc water heater.

That is friggin sweet!

Google is your friend

Rick, I’d like to get a copy of the entire thing, do you have the source document? I tried Google but it brought up the PNG you already posted. Thanks

I 've had that for awhile. It was some wood site. Don’t know if I can find again.
