Just a pressure wash and I'd use a degreaser just to make sure you get a good surface for the Graphene to adhere to. I also use it on everything with a painted surface to protect it and keep it looking new.

I just got a new HVAC in February and I did the outside condenser unit with the Graphene. It's on the south side of the house so it gets baked in the sun all day so it'll keep it from fading and looking new. Yes, I have a serious problem!

If it works it works.

The first step to addressing a problem is recognizing that there is a problem. Congratulations, Dave.

There's a pretty good storm moving through the midwest the next 3 days. Lots of rain and tornados and 3-6 inches expected in some areas. I saw there wee some good ones moving through Springfield, MO the other day with a few tornados on the ground. 🌪

I'll say it again I'm so glad we're out of AR and back home in AZ!! I still watch and track the weather there and over the last 3 weeks I think they've only had 3-4 days will little to no rain. Here it's been sunny and perfect weather (low - mid 90's) with only a couple days hitting 102 and every night (but 2) we can still open the windows by the time we go to bed. But that looks like it'll be ending soon with the nighttime temps going up to the mid 70's in a couple days. With dew point only in the low 20's, I'll take hot and dry any day of the week! :tumbleweed:

Severe storms could impact more than 90 million across multiple states

Severe weather could impact more than 90 million people across the middle of the country this week, forecasts show, as storms continue to threaten multiple U.S. states in the Midwest and northern Plains.

Up to 4 inches of rain may fall in some areas on Tuesday, and the region remains at risk of flash flooding as well as storms causing large hail, damaging winds and tornadoes, according to CBS News meteorologist Nikki Nolan. This comes after more than half a foot of rain struck the region on Monday, resulting in 65 flash flood reports out of Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas, Nolan said.

Severe storms ripped through Chicago (and the midwest) for 3 days last week along with a few tornados. Annie still has her house there in which her daughter lives in and she just got power back on late last night after being without it for 3 days. Luckily her house and car didn't get any damage but some in the area around her weren't so lucky. :(

The N'east is going to get hit with some storms tonight and they could be just as bad as this cold front pushed through.

Would be curious to see if there any records showing the amount of windstorms we have had in the last 6-8 years are a cycle like temps can be. Here in north Idaho we are not known for severe winds and we have had several extreme wind storms like we haven't seen before.

We went from sweating to freezing in about 2 hours today. Looks like the next 10 days will be fabulous with below normal temps and low humidity.
