~Cardboard Boat~
I just thought I would drop you a note and let you know what we have been doing with one of your products.
I am a high school wood shop teacher and a while back one of our teachers went to a boat show that had a cardboard boat on display and a "how to" book to go with it. I purchased the book and myself along with a couple of my students took on the task of building it. After all the measuring, cutting, folding and gluing of the cardboard we cover it with 3 coats of block and wall liquid rubber. The first one floats great. I can't wait to see all 4 boats out in the river together. I am attaching some pictures for you to see. Thank you for such a great product.

~Tear Drop Trailer~
Dama,
This is the tear drop trailer we restored and used maximum-stretch on the out side of. We put on two coats super primer and eight coats of colored maximum-stretch (4 1/2 gallons ). We are very happy with the way your products coated the whole out side to seal up all the seams.
Thought you and Pete would like to see some pictures.

~Environmentally Friendly Paint~
Unique use for Liquid Granite
| I
own a specialty painting business in Oregon and have done
extensive research on environmentally safe coatings.
Ames manufactures the best coating products
I have found for Oregon’s wet weather. The price,
durability, and safety of these products are superb.
Paint & Prime
25 year is a truly revolutionary product. In my painting
business we get around 20 gallons of paint for every 15
gallons we buy because we are able to add 5 gallons of water
and the paint is still thicker than most.
Ames products are full of integrity and I
am grateful to use them.

~Seaworthy Cardboard Box~
|
Dear Dr. Curtright,
I would like to thank you once again for the wonderful
waterproof paint you donated to our Royal Rangers' cardboard
boat race. The "Block &
Wall" waterproof coating we applied to our cardboard
boat was just the right combination of pliability and waterproof
toughness. Our boat withstood the race virtually unscathed
and even survived the demolition derby of cardboard boats
that left every other boat in the competition as a soggy
pile of wet cardboard on the beach. Our boat was still usable
even after riding home in the back of my truck through a
tropical storm! I would have never thought it possible.
Your generosity towards someone whom you did not know and
have still not even met was above and beyond what we could
have asked or hoped. The boys had a great time and will
always have great memories. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Steven P. Skinner

~Dock bumper~
| Pete
Attached
is a photo of the dock bumper I have painted with the Safe-T-
Deck. Perhaps (in black) this could be another use
for your product. The bumper was a slipping hazard, now
thanks to the Safe-T- Deck it looks good and is non-slip.
Thanks

~Around a pool~
| I
recently did two projects for my home using your Elasto-Barrier
and Maximum-Stretch for
a flat roof also taping the seam between the house and roof
and also sealed the deck around my pool. I have to say that
this is the greatest stuff I have ever used and that it
is so easy to apply. I simply used a 4" paint brush
and a roller and it went on very easily. I have attached
a picture I took this am of my pool job. My wife is very
delighted also, she said this is the whitest white she has
ever seen. Keep up the good work.
Sincerely
Bill Dixon

~Reflective Paint Signage~
| I
own a small neighborhood beer and wine bar. It is set back
off the street so it is hard to see unless you are looking
for it. I've had people come in and tell me they've lived
there years and didn't know the place existed. City regulation
prohibit tall signs, flashing lights, spinning signs or
flags. Over a year ago I bought a gallon of your Reflective
Paint to paint over my signs so maybe people might
be able to see them. Well, I tend to put things off and
just got around to painting the signs. Now I have several
people a day coming in to tell me they saw my sign from
way down the street. The paint is probably not going to
make me rich but it is making a difference.
Now on to my next great idea.
Thanks,

~Boat Deck and Canvas~
| Thanks!
I received my 2 gallon order today. This is my second project
on my boat using your products and I am looking forward
to a leak free deck to go with my Ames coated leak free
cabin top. The Safe-T-Deck I
applied last summer over canvas has held up beautifully
under direct sun, kept the boat cooler inside, and was 100%
waterproof all winter. My decks are 30 year old fir plank
and we have not been able to find a caulk that will stand
up to the shrink/expansion of the wood without seams opening
up and leaking for the first half of the winter. After the
success we had with the cabin top, I am confident that painting
the decks with Safe-T-Deck will help preserve them and keep
fresh water from soaking in and causing rot. Thank you again
for the great product!
