          To help keep sales of PedFloor Structural Foam Sealant Barrier growing at an accelerated rate, we offer this application tip for spreading the uncured sealant around inside a pedestal to ensure complete coverage.

PedFloor kits include a plastic sheet. This sheet can be laid on the poured foam after it begins to rise, but before it sets. By pressing on the sheet with hands or tools, the rising foam can be manipulated and forced into corners and around cables. The rising foam is very tacky, so the plastic allows this manipulation to occur without making a mess of the hands or tools.

Leave the plastic sheet in place until the foam is fully cured, then pull it off easily. It comes off cleanly. Pulling it off too soon--while the foam is still tacky--will make a mess. Using the plastic sheet during this small window of opportunity as the sealant is rising but not yet cured helps make uniform coverage for a complete seal.

Share this tip with the crews using the product for greater customer satisfaction. It's also good to show this tip as part of a product demonstration.


The Joke
                              What Do I Look Like To You?   A newlywed couple moves into their new house. One day the husband comes home from work and his wife says, "Honey, you know, in the upstairs bathroom one of the pipes is leaking. Could you fix it?" The husband says, "What do I look like, Mister Plumber?" A few days go by, and he comes home from work again and his wife says, "Honey, the car won't start. I think it needs a new battery. Could you change it for me?" So he says, "What do I look like, Mister Goodwrench?" Another few days go by, and it's raining pretty hard. The wife finds a leak in the roof. She says, "Honey, there's a leak on the roof! Can you please fix it?" He says, "What do I look like, Bob Vila?" The next day the husband comes home, and the roof is fixed. So is the plumbing. So is the car. He asks his wife what happened. "Oh, I had a handyman come in and fix them," she says. "Great! How much is that going to cost me?" he snarls. The wife says, "Nothing. He said he'd do it for free if I either baked him a cake or slept with him." "Uh, well, what kind of cake did you make?" asks the husband. "What do I look like," she says, "Betty Crocker?"
