thanks..

muriatic acid is called Hydrochloric Acid in UK.

I have back doorstep too so what ill do is ill use the damp seal primer on it after a good clean up and ill paint it with the masonry paint, but the front doorstep ill use the stabilizing solution as ben recommended..

^^^fuck if it dont get complicated!!!!

but just to make it stick better. get a really stiff
brush, then scrub it with vinegar. then rinse off and let dry.
muriatic acid would work better if you can get it. do same
scrub and rinse let dry. either will open the pores of the brush...

yes!
and then right before you paint, dip your brush into whatever thinner it calls for letting it soak up right up till the handle. then shake it out well, right down to any drops that a vigorous snap will allow
what this does is 'primes' your brush to 'unload' the paint it picks up from the whatever your dipping it in and flow as quickly and easily onto the surface your painting

i find it rediculous that you need to cut your paint in half and mix up some of it seperate for what your going to use on the restof a small project your obviously going to want to do in one pass.
90% percent of the jobs they sell paint for involve a step or three in addition to flat work and that they DIDNT make this issue plain strikes me as irresponsible as the holder of the license they have selling products regarding.

in english one term is 'steamed'
heated
verging on outrage

im outraged after reading their info pages and HOW long its been last they updated their content

some companys are spot on accurate and informative AT the point its needed.
need to high five them when i run across them cuz they guys certainly aint and it needs mention.

quite a while back a mixing board i have my keyboards run to
got really noisy. few months ago found a good deal on offer up.
so slowly getting around to change out. new board uses a foot
switch for effects. so ordered one. few nights ago i changed the
boards. wired everything mostly to new board. all but a midi rack
unit. last night i turned on the old b3 organ. is good for it to run a
few days. rained today so got out of garden water duty. i plugged
everything in and ran cords to mixer and midi unit. then 1 keyboard
at a time set some levels on mixer. i need help to set them all at the
same level. but i know it all works and no snafu's. need to remember how
to get a keyboard to just play the midi unit without keyboard at same time.
then mixer seems like low phantom power. i need to plug in lestle speaker
to set it's volume after i get keyboards all at same level.hope enough power
in board for lestle, will see.
left it all turned on will go play around with it a bit later.

well played around last night a while. still had things to
figure out. i had photos of mixer i took a while back and a
.pdf of manual. so did some reading and looking. well took
care of a few things. got mixer louder now by adjusting trim.
figured out the foot switch to mixer effects. i have levels
pretty close just need a extra hand. another problem was
a keyboard plugged into a emu sound module both were playing.
well a few sips of coffee and a toke later a way came to me.
so turned the keyboards volume all the way down. then was able
to set the volume level on the emu unit. yay. now just need a
hand to fine tune levels. then plug in a lestle and set it's volume
with mixing board and will all be hooked up again.

you getting the band back together???

had a friend who played and he could never get his cables neat so id help him with that...

[Lrus007]

never been in a band.did manage a few punk bands long ago.
i am on a few recordings and made up some songs for a band.
i kind of play just for myself. i just kept putting off hooking up
a mixer. one i was using got noisy. is summer fingers do not hurt
as bad so will play a bit. i mark my cables with a sharpy. helps to
know what goes where.

it's common knowledge that objects billions of light-years away,
are seen by super telescopes as they actually were billions of years ago,
since their light takes that long to reach us.
but as a new study speculates that we may see Betelgeuse, the star of Orion's shoulder,
which can be seen easily by naked eye, may go supernova within as little as a decade or so...
and if so, it would mean that it actually happened over 500 years ago
around the time when Columbus discovered America reached the Bahamas.
just seems like a kind of mind-boggling example,
as it's so big that it doesn't seem that far away when you look at it,
I think it's comparable in brightness, as seen from here, to Mars,
which is only a few light- minutes away

[rSin]

ive read that about Betelgeuse expressed as every year there is a 1% chance it will go supernova so that means it already has...

when the light of that gets here we will have a day star like has occured several times in human history


several of those famous nebulas youve seen pictures of were stars once in human history
