    $24 pump out? What?

    There is a shortage of public restrooms in all American cities. Sure you can always use the toilet in a store or restaurant, but will they allow you if you are homeless?

    Temporary Brightwork treatment

    Throw away the varnish and pony up for Awlwood when you get around to refinishing. Looks great, goes on rapidly and easily and lasts for a lot longer than any old fashioned varnish. Do it right the first time and you won’t have to do it for another decade.
