BCATP cedar shake dope!!!
Here is a shot in the dark. Anyone have an old 45 gallon drum of the high lead, good old fashion zinc chromate kinda green stain that the feds would like you to dispose of on a nice seasoned motor pool cedar wall? Just checking. Cheers Rob

I like the look of that 1939 Dodge staff car. Is it a Plymouth body badged as a Dodge or a genuine Dodge body? My first 'old, ancient' car was one of those Plymouth Bodied Dodge's cut down to make it a pickup.

Hi Rob, what about that green stuff that is used for treating end cuts on pressure treat lumber? As far as I know, it is some sort of chromate stuff.
I believe it is called "end cut preservative" and it comes in gallon cans. It is thin like stain and requires constant mixing to keep the pigments mixed. It contains either copper or zinc napthenate depending on manufacturer. I know Home Depot , TimBr-Mart and various building supply stores carry it. It is a lighter green colour and takes a while to dry. Alternatively, you can purchase the stuff intended for wood foundation (sub-grade) and it is a dark green colour I believe. Probably available out West as we do not use wood foundations here very much as you guys do out there. There is also the alternative of using green stain (yes, it is available) from many of the various dealers.

Fat chance in hell!
Rob....you're going to be SOL. The paint industry has changed so much in the last few years, getting the stuff that really works is impossible to obtain. I can see what I can do for you, wholesale, through my suppliers, who have stores in Winnipeg. Did you want to match the green on the side???. Do you have a paint sprayer, preferably airless???
PM me and we'll talk. Cheers....Robert (Van Pro Decorating Ltd) |
