    I could see that being a real mess. I don’t know that a caustic would even get that out.

    won't touch it. pre-solve just runs off...

    windshield guys use a knife to cut the windshield loose then air chisel to clean out the old smootz before applying the fresh.

    Imagine they just turned off the heat and left them set up....

    For years until production switched to another location.

    The guy wanted to clean them up for something else; totally impossible

    and sometimes left for others...Provost inherited a few Molten sulfur trailers with large, solid, heels from BC [Bulk Carriers, Sarnia, On.] which were left in Krajack's yard when Provost went out and were still there when Dana bought the property from the Krajack family...I'll have to look and see if they are still there...been over 25 years now...LOL

    Tanker works sounds heck of alot more interesting than van lol, whats the loading/unloading like? Surely not gonna be stuck in a dock waiting for a literal day for some guys to get the job done.

    It is more interesting. And customers are usually happy to see you come in.
