    Brown moths on windows

    Does anyone else have brown moths on their windows in their pole barn? I just vacuumed up around 20 under each window. They are dark brown about an inch long. What are they, and how do I get rid of them? I will try to get a picture later.

    Do not use Johns Mansville insulation board

    I didn’t mean to offend anyone by saying I wouldn’t use a particular product. I just had a bad experience with it and wouldn’t use it again. Use it or not I don’t care. I will keep working in and on my garage rather than troll forums all day.

    Do not use Johns Mansville insulation board

    Termites were eating the heck out of my foil faced Johns Mansville insulation board in my pole barn. Luckily it was only a small area before I noticed it. I am now forced to termite treat the building. My dad was an exterminator for 40 years and he was surprised the product was made like it is...

    Astro Pneumatic Undercoating/Bedliner spray gun

    I'm looking for a bottle to attach to an Astro undercoating/bedliner spray gun. I bought it on Amazon a few months ago and was told a HDX spray bottle from home depot will screw on. Unfortunately due to the COVID-19 all spray bottles are gone. Should have bought one months ago, but was waiting...

    What would you do differently next time??

    Build it exactly like you want from the beginning. One it's built it won't get done later examples: insulation, more lights, water source.

    Body Shop Advice

    Thanks to everyone for the advice. Still not 100% sure what I’m going to do. If I take it I’m stuck with it but at least they can’t screw it up any more. Hopefully someone else can Fix their mistakes. Bodywork is actually good just block sanding marks and poor cut and buff.

The only thing in the contract that mentions quality is "best of their ability" which i guess this is it. Now...

    Body Shop Advice

    I know this isn't exactly a garage subject but I thought I would just throw it out there. I recently took my 70 Challenger to a restoration shop to have the paint and bodywork done. They told me it was finished yesterday so I went to go look at it. I was really disappointed in the final product...

    Driveway gravel size

    I agree with everyone on the plastic underlayment. If I could go back i would have done that, but it's too late now. If you are just going to make a smart a$$ comment please don't. No need for know-it-alls. I'm simply asking what other people have had success with. I'm not asking for help with...

    Driveway gravel size

    Thanks for the ideas/opinions. I think I am going to try the rock salt idea to try and stop the weeds. I currently use round-up, but am tired of doing it every month or so, and I also don't like the fact that it is really bad for you. As far as my top layer I am going to go with 3" of #7. I...
