    Shed hair into fresh paint (or is there another way to spell that sort of shed?)

    Boy, I've heard some doozies before for weaseling out of a job but this one takes the cake!

    The painting is what it is......the fresh paint is just showing up what you always lose when it gets warm/hot/humid. Just ask who ever does the vacuuming at home, Gregg.


    So,what's it doing to your shed again?


    Cheers!

    I gotta say, anything big enough to get a noticible number of hairs shed thereupon during painting is too big for them to be noticed. Under normal conditions. If it is a small area, suggest you consider medical attention. You are shedding too fast for your own good. Are you sure that they are from you? It is my understanding that certain painting implements will actually loose hairs during use........

    And I thought we were going to get some photos of Kate painting. Instead I get images of your hairy but shedding. Not good. Not fair.

    Fans. You Need More Fans.

    Put on in the foredeck hatch blowing in, and one in the companionway blowing out.

    Alternatively, you could move here, above the 45th parallel (north) where we consider 80 degrees F (thats about 28C) hot.
