Speaker 2 (00:28):
O. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
First, my garden's a little dry right now. Yeah, it's
buzzing right now. It is, Uh, it sure is, And yeah,
needs a little water anyway, Let's.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Say everything kind of needs a little water. Man. It
cut dry fast, isn't.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
He in a hurry? And of course it reflects right
away with that turf, and of course newly planted plants,
and like we were talking about earlier with evergreens, you
don't notice it till next year, but you better get on.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
And if you've got my little grip hose going through
all my evergreens and anything, you the man, I'll tell
you I try.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
To be all right. So we had a question from
one of our callers, and I'm gonna throw it over
to you. Well, see if you have a possible answer.
Talking about that concrete bird bath, and it just you
can't keep it clean because it's you know, it's poorus.
The water gets in there, turns green, turns black. Can
Is there something she could seal that with the concrete
(01:30):
on the inside to keep that water from penetrating so
much into the concrete itself. Yeah, sure sure, and it
wouldn't be harmful to the birds or the wildlife.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Huh No, you gotta be careful. Make sure you read
that on the label. I mean some would be, some
would not be.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Okay, a couple things.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
One of the things that comes to mind is the
dry lock product the paint, same stuff that you would
seal foundation walls with to minimize water penetration into the
walls and keeping the water vapor out of the house.
That would work.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Is that is that? Is that a color?
Speaker 2 (02:05):
You can have it in color, You can have it
and clear?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Oh good, because you probably want ton't clear.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
So about five years ago they came out with a
clear dry lock. They never had a clear dry lock,
and they also had a product. It always talked about walls,
never talked about concrete floors, basement floors, especially keep you know,
gases and water from entering and all that. But they
do have it clear now, and so you could use that.
(02:33):
Is it concrete or is it like that pottery or
that it's.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
A concrete She said, it's a three tiered really heavy
concrete bird bath.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
There's also a product and it it would be similar.
It wouldn't really be similar to dry lock. It'd be
probably more similar to ceiling a concrete drively just to
minimize water penetration. Now you got to remember it is
under water. It is a slo scene. It's called ghost shield,
(03:06):
and I know that particular product is safe for birds
and stuff. I don't know which one would be best.
I would kind of lead to the dry lock to
be honest with you.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Okay, should she do the outside and the inside of
the bowl or just the inside of the bowl.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I don't see any reason why she couldn't do both.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Does it leave achine to it or does it still
have the natural.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
It's got a little bit of achine. It isn't glossy, right,
But i'd say a satin and I would say the
dry lock clear. I mean not all that holds back
ten pounds per square inch of water pressure. So it's
gonna seal that bad boy up right. I think that'd
(03:56):
probably be the ware. I would lean with it, and
well you could do the insider. I don't think it
would really need to have the outside done right. But
you know another thing, if you wanted it to be
a color, and I've seen people use pool paint.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
M but that would then be a color.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
That'd be a color. You know, you could do a
you know, I don't know about a black, but you
could do a blue or a white or something which
might enhance that.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Right, that's a possibility. And then that'll stand up to
cleaning it. Probably still need to clean it, you know, Yeah, like.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
You normally have to clean it. Yeah, water gets in
there and gets tight in it, and little oxygen ad
bleach would probably work real well.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Excellent, Thank you. I knew you to have the answer.
I told her to stay tuned, Is that right? Oh yeah,
You've always got an answer for everything.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I love the tips.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
So last week you were on the road just checking
out some new and I was upcoming items for home improvement.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Yeah. Yeah, we were at the do A Best show
up in India. It was a nice show, so I think, uh,
six hundred thousand square foot, big show, big show, and uh,
lawn and garden, a lot of lawn and garden there,
and of course everything to do with the home, including
lumber and all kinds of products. So yeah, it was fun.
(05:17):
Got to catch up with some people I haven't seen
for a while, and uh.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Take lots of notes, got lots of information.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Notes, had lots of interviews. People can still pick up
that show if they want. It's on via podcast or
the iHeart app. And it was a last Sunday, so
easy to find. But yeah, we had we had a
good time. It was it was it was good.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
I enjoy those you stay all night there. I did
did stay in the railroad cars.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Uh yeah, Maul Downtown's really.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
That's that's something.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
It's something to walk. Boy, it's not what it was.
It's kind of slowed down.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Oh has it? Yeah, it's been about ten years.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Really bid into it.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Oh it's been about ten years. Because we did do
that for an anniversary where we stayed the cars. Oh yeah,
as a matter of fact, I thought you recommended that.
I don't remember.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I may have.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
I think you did, may have. And we did that
and then they had that mall that you walked around.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Yeah. Yeah, people were just telling me that it was
much slower or less crowded than it used to be.
But Indy was hopping. Man. They had the Colts game
next door, the big convention we were at, So there's
plenty going on. That's for sure, good for you.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
So what are we going to talk about today in
home improvement?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Well, you know, I don't know whether to go fall
or summer, but I think I'm going summer today because
we're back to kind of some warm weather where I'm
at and where you're at. But I think we're just
going to talk a lot about concrete and wrapping up
summer projects, maybe some deck staining. I want to really
talk about the mildew and the streaking on shingles, not
(06:47):
necessarily how to get rid of it, but what's going
on with the shingle?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
So why do I see that?
Speaker 2 (06:52):
More and more?
Speaker 1 (06:53):
It seemed like every now and then you see a
house that had a couple, you know, the lines coming down,
And today it seems like, I don't know, is that
just me?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
It's a no, it's a fungus, and it's an algae,
and it's an airborne uh. And a lot of the
newer roofs have a barrier in it for about ten years.
But if you get in the neighborhood with older roofs,
you know, the shingles have less protected and it can
absorb water and then you got the airborne fungus. You got,
you got the perfect scenario. And so I think it's
(07:23):
just depends on the neighborhood, quite honestly.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
And that's probably what I'm seeing. Like in my neighborhood.
It's a you know, forty year old homes right, fifty
year old homes so.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Right, So you're probably in your getting ready for that
third roof.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Just want to thanks for reminding me. I appreciate problem.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Yeah, great for al.
