I generally use this detergent to clean oil spots on the driveway, not to use it to clean any linens or towels.

(Oil too, depending on the furnace).

I realize that is contrary to what most people do, but as a contractor who's doing and/or directing the actual installation and maintenance, it makes a lot of sense for usIn bedrooms, I staple in unfinished 3/4 in. tongue-and-groove oak with 3 coats of oil-based poly to finish it.

The reason being, the prices throughout Kern county have been kept low lately because previously it was an Oil and Ag based community (which has not been doing well lately).  

Currently, the rental unit is empty so I just shut off the furnace and the water heater to conserve oil, and frankly because there's no need for hot water and heat (currently not freezing).

Gel stain is almost like oil paint but looks stained not painted...no need to strip, just clean and light sand.

According to numbers I've received from the listing agent, the annual heating/oil expense is just shy of $11,000 a year.

Oil, precious metals?

We are in houston, and last year we purchased one of our most successful properties to-date, in a market that everyone said was terrible because the price of oil tanked in 2015.
