For those of you know who him, you now know where to find him. For those who don't, as always ...

From what I recall when I painted mine (15+ years ago), you don't need to remove all visible traces of the stains, which can run fairly deep into the concrete. You just need to be certain that what remains is not hydrophobic. Once you've accomplished that, it should accept the paint with no trouble....

What would you do?

Disinherit your son?

I'll second all of that! The course was lots of fun, quite a bit faster than I expected and the pavement is in great shape.

The Escape premiered Sunday evening. I finally had a chance to watch, over breakfast today. It's every bit as good as the originals.
