[QUOTE="lokonn, post: 348151, member: 12595"] Looks like good progress! As for the carpet glue...I used a paint stripper from one of the big box stores. Brushed it on, let it sit for a bit , then took the pressure washer to it. Had to go back over some spots a second time. I did use wire wheel to get some areas, but stripper worked well. After rinsing, I sprayed an aluminum brightner/cleaner, from Napa, then rinsed all again. Be careful with both stripper and brightener. Prolly best to not have any ''supervisors'' around. Fumes from brightener are pretty strong, make sure you use gloves, I have heard it can take your fingernails off! By the way spent my birthday, 4-9, sanding and sealing front casting deck/storage/seating area. Good way to spend a birthday. [/QUOTE]
