Wolman and Olympic?

[GCSurfer]

Is there a link or site for Wolman/Olympic that offers certificatios and/or exams? I am looking for general info on pressure washing and starting a new business.

Thanks

Wolman is pretty simple, just google it since we are not suppose to put things on the board. My other opinion would be don't use olympic if you trying to present yourself as a contractor that uses top notch chems. Unless your a lowes or homedepot guy and present yourself as something less. I used Wolman for a few years now, good product but now I am using Ready seal mainly and Wolman if someone ask for it.

Give Sikkens a try for sealers and/or stains.

olympic sucks

I have been in the business for the last 6 years and started my own this year. I am going with Cabot for people who want color and ready seal for those who want the natural look or cedar tone look. readyseal will send you all kinds of information and samples of there product. Wolman is a good product but some contractors believe the initial look of a Wolman deck is not great. I have felt that readyseal is extremely customer friendly and fairly good price for the product.

I have used olympic max. in the past on cedar siding and it was O.K. to use and lasted for 4-5 years. I have also used it on decks and on decks I got about 2-3 years depending on if the deck got direct sun. I have also used wolman F&P it is the same as olympic to apply but it does last a while longer then the olympic.On cedar I am still waiting for the results on how long the wolman will last. I did a cedar house with it at the customers request 4 years ago and it still looks good.
