I'm from here. Returned to do some work for long time customers. I hope to be going back and forth for work.

Using duration also.

Rich

...hey whatever keeps bread on the table

I'm assuming you're driving back and forth, I couldn't see the airlines letting you on with half the tools us painters use

remember cure time my noreast friends, low temp 30 degree paint, paint that last clapboard at 5:00 at 35* temp drops to 25* 3 hours later during cure time, voids warantee, no store will back you up, home owner wants house stripped, ahhhhhhhhhhhh But if its all you got for work i would probably say... "%&*#@ it"... too.

timhag

Regal,i hear what you are saying brother. It's not all the work we have, we had soooo many towards the end of the season we just keep going. We have many lined up for spring with more spring bids in the works. We will come to a head here soon. High temps been in the mid forty to mid fifties this week and upper 40's next week. Now thats some exterior painting weather.

Joewho

They let me take what I brought. A tote inside a gym bag with everyday handtools. You just have to check as luggage.

Joewho

And how do you know this?

regal

yeah, exactly...
