0000 steel wool

 

after you get it clean spray it with some rain-x. The stuff for car windows to keep them from fogging up. My old glass guy told me this trick and it works really well to keep the glass clean for a long time

 

Toilet bowl cleaner also works well, just make sure the exhaust fan is on, and you may want a mask.

 

Steel scrubbing pad or a razorblade. Use a cleaner that breaks down hard water/soap scum. CLR would probably work fine.

 

I use this shit, spray on and rinse.

 

The CLR works great

 

careful if you have certain stones if using CLR, might etch it and damage the finish.
I found 0000 steel wool and some barkeeper's friend works great.

 

Meh, he lives in section 8 housing. His tub/shower is plastic

 

so is ours, builder grade finishes unfortunately. but it isn't our forever home, plan to sell when i retire from navy in a few years. it does the job for now haha if i had a reason to replace it, i would upgrade it at that point.

 

Did you ever get a solution? If not, I can share one....

What’s going on with your crawl space sil plates? I’ve not see 4x pressure treated used before; Just curious. Is this a prefab home put where a home was previously but now it has to meet crawl space height requirements?

 

Dunno if its right but Ive seen pressure treated used

 

It was a prefab from the 70s, that sill was put under before it was lowered on. Could give two shits about how ‘right’ it is at this point, the place was literally collapsing and was on bottle jacks.

 

Yeah. I got the shop light mounted about a month ago. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/home-improvement-today.12120/page-1051#post-23623676

I haven't got around to trying to mount the house light again, but I have an old job box and the hole saw that I need.

 

Well, we laid the floor tile in my sons new bathroom, I had him mix the grout and showed him and his fiancée how to install/rub it in, about a 10 square foot area. I let them go. MISTAKE! We are now trying to remove all excess grout they left behind....UGH!
I am installing the grout for the remainder of the tile!!

 

Damned kids, they never listen..

 

He and she try I’ll give them that but zero construction sense.

 

Well it's time to get some material quotes to put a fence in between our driveway and the neighbors.

Chunks of concrete in the driveway and this beauty on my new to me 4runner, likely culprit is the neighbor's fucking kid.
