If it was still damp after 60 hours I'm guessing it was on too thick and must be the solvent. Mine was completely dry after 48 hrs but I still had some stain so I did it a second time.

Nicole - Thank you for the email. Have you sealed the repair and now are trying to dull the shine down? If so, this is because the shine in the sealer is high and if your tile is a flat it will be tough. I would suggest taking some nail polish remover or rubbing alcohol and rubbing the area softly to remove the lacquer and this will also dull the shine down slightly. After this dries, you can then use the white side to dull the shine more. After it at the shine you want, then you can stop. You do not need to use the clear pen if the shine is low. The repair will be sealed already and the higher shine is not needed. This should get you to where you need to be. Thank you

I have a composite deck. Get a 5 gallon bucket and a short bristled deck brush, add 4 ounces to 2 gallons of water and start scrubbing. You might want to sprinkle some OxiClean on a moist deck first and start the scrubbing process a few hours after.

Use bartenders friend or any non scratching scouring powder to remove the spots. I'm not sure, but I think that these spots come from hard water.

I use the Savogran 10621 as a booster for other cleaners, and on its own when cleaning my deck. The 'chalky white stuff' you speak of on your siding sounds like finish deteriorization. No cleaner I know of will stop that. Check with the manufacturer of your siding(or any aluminum siding for that matter), and see if they have answers...

after your all done be sure to wipe your nails again with the blue cleaning liquid that comes with the kit. That will take care of the problem .

The discoloration is probably caused by it not being oiled correctly. I highly recommend you read up on oiling your cutting board, but if it turns out you've oiled it correctly and didn't put it in the dishwasher or anything, I'd return it for another. When I get a new end grain board, I oil it every day for a week, then at least once a week for the next month, then as needed (it starts to look dry). This will ensure that your investment is protected. I have a wide variety of boards, from this one, to side and end grain teak and I have to be honest - this one is the best. Good wood cutting boards require maintenance though.

Did mine over a year ago, let me see......used spray copper paint for the haul, bottled paint used white, black, the instructions will tell you other colors you will need. One thing I did on my own, I had a dark wood stain, I used it on the deck. Let it dry and sprayed it with a poly spray to keep it from smearing. I know wood stain is for wood, but it will give it a great look. One thing take your time with the ship, work a few hours at a time. May get frustrated at times, but worth it at the end. Any other questions just ask.

I have tried all the best commercial sealers and none seem to work. The top is now etched and I'm trying to find a professional to regrind and polish the top.

In this instance I used deck paint on the plastic wood. On other occasions I have used a like material and stained it but first I scored the putty with a knife, giving it a "grain" that would show darker when stained. I tried to match the grain of the surrounding wood. Then a little more stain with a Q-tip to get the shade just right. It worked OK. This stuff should work the same.

I agree with Galabb about using a LITTLE heat especially still this is paneling. Everything else may leave a residue on that spot. I'd tell you to use a putty knife or razor blade, but not on paneling unless you can match the stain you'll be taking off. For the next go around, try using 3M Scotch Command tape. It's removable and comes with a hook.

there seemed to be a light coating on the wood. I must say that the handle did not seam to need any sealant. however I twiked the handle by using 220 grit ,very lightltly then used two coats of lnsead oil .don't worry about the handle, its good out of the box. check you tube for info on fine tuning the edge. i have used this tool all winter and am very pleased with it. have fun . bill

I would try rubbing alcohol. We owned a plating shop years ago and I would spray rubbing alcohol on the finished product to remove spots. I also hear that baby oil works too, haven't tried it. Good luck.

The patches are a mixture of burnt lint and mineral deposits. C.L.R. is available at major retailers and can help. Put the liquid on a paper towel the size of the sole plate and let it soak for about 20 minutes. Then scrape it off with the edge of an old credit card. Repeat until done.If your iron has gotten to this point, consider replacing it with one that has a cleaning mode for removing old lint before it builds up and burns. Also, stop using tap water and use distilled instead. I recommend the Black and Decker D2030.Also look for a "dripless" iron, which won't throw out drops of water which tend to concentrate the brown in spots.

Colleen, I've seen this on many of my projects too. The prior stain or paint was applied without sealing the wood, so the stain was absorbed unevenly. In some cases I've used alcohol (although this tends to raise the grain) or a dental pick to scrape out paint (but this can leave scratches). Since I usually use a walnut stain, it obscures most of the prior stain/paint. Unless the old covering is in a highly visible area, you are probably OK.

http://www.marinetex.com/gluvit.html this should help better than what i can say. I really liked the results. i used it on my fiberglass deck that had some stress cracks in it and I added Evercoat epoxy color agent and I'm happy with how it turned out. I hope you get some good results, this stuff really is nice.
