Hellooooo New Hampshire legislature ...... any chance for joining up with www.paintcare.org?

By not having a service like PaintCare, it ends up with people disposing their old paint into a semi-public trash can, such as at Lowe's, Home depot, Walmart, Irving Gas, or a private dumpster, or the town transfer station. Most everyone wants to do the correct thing with their left-over haz waste, and the existing NH system does not work good because it works to encourage people to dispose into retail trash.

Sorry no excuse for acting irresponsibly.

"NH system does not work good because it works to encourage people to dispose into retail trash."

Really fact or fiction ........ or your own twisted sense of reality.

Deck restorer not an option . Sanding is necessary since there are loose pieces of previous coatings.

We are in the process of doing the same and I uncovered that the deck restorer mentioned earlier is a rebrand of a product that has an ongoing class action lawsuit and both have bad reviews. People report peeling after 1 year in cold climates and because it's so thick you have to sand-blast to remove it if you decide to go back to paint/stain.

We haven't decided yet what we are going to use...

Tried the deck restorer and it was a disaster Was able to get refund for material but now have to start all over. Thanks for link to new product.

I read nothing but bad things about deck restore paint but my front porch was so bad I figured for $30 I'd give it a try anyway. It looked good for all last summer but as soon as I put the snow shovel to it, it all started pealing off.
Now it looks worse than it did before. Oh well, it needs replacing anyway.
