They used the premixed mastic but the 300lb guy (who left his cell phone on the window sill) couldn't believe the mastic had not set in 3 hrs so he could walk on it.

I held the relinquished property for 7 years and gum it up at the end.

:crazed: I know it seems crazy to you now, but if you stick with it there will be a day when buying a house is like buying a pack of gum at the convenient store.

That house could have it in stucco, window putty, drywall joint compound, ceiling texture, sheet vinyl flooring, vinyl floor tile, flooring and other mastics, HVAC ducts, and other things - most major surfaces.

(That and 25 cents get you a gum ball)· Current property market value is 200,000 +/-· Current mortgage balance (280k, and 30k) 80 / 20· With both units rented I pay 500$ a month +/- out of my pocketQuestions1.

Painting in too hot will gum up and dry darker.

$250 for desk, nice chair, 2 bookshelves and all i needed was two strapping young men to haul it in and a screwdriver (and some chewing gum and a paper clip).

The only way a home would have asbestos is that someone found and used some old asbestos tile mastic, other old building material or some such remote chance scenario.

The sub used a 1/4-in. square notch to sparingly spread budget mortar for 18-inch square tiles and dropped them in, because r'aal professionals don't need no stinkin' backbuttering and swirling spreading is good enough for mastic, so it should be good enough for mortar.

I've had luck in shirley/mastic area.
