Tip
by JoAnn Derson
To rewhiten socks or wash

cloths, try boiling a pot of
water and adding a sliced,
juiced lemon. Soak the items
for at least an hour, and then
pick out the lemon and add the
items — water and all — to a
load of wash.

If you’ve been cooking in
the oven and have a pan that’s
got cooked-on food, you can
get it clean without all the
scrubbing. Immediately after
cooking, while the oven is still
hot, add enough water to cover
the bottom of the pan, and a lit-
tle dish soap. Put it in the oven
until the oven is cool. The
residual heat will work on the
stuck-on food while you are
dining, and it’ll wipe right out.

A Message From The Owner: Brian Oertel

Painting Stucco Does Not Enhance Stucco!
The only way to enhance/strengthen stucco is to fortify when mixing. Once cured the stucco is as hard as it can get.
Painting traditional cement color coat(s) will eventually trap moisture. All stucco systems, regardless of finish coating will
crack. A residential stucco system typically has a concrete base over a block or framed structure. The stucco system endures
constant structural and ground movement, which causes cracking. No finish coating, concrete or elastomeric can completely
endure this movement. Elastomeric products are designed to allow elasticity, least likely to crack. However, if the wall faults
past its elasticity, it will tear, allowing moisture behind it. Also, elastomeric is moisture resistant. Not Water Proof! Therefore,
with a heavy concentration of moisture, it will penetrate the paint/coating. Elastomeric was originally designed for application
over a new base coat.
Traditional cement color coats are designed to absorb moisture through its layer(s) to the base coats. Hence the need to
evaporate quickly. When paint/elastomeric are applied directly over cement color coat(s) and moisture gets behind it (which
inevitably will happen), this causes the moisture to be trapped between the paint/elastomeric and the base coat. During freeze
and thaw cycles the underlying cement color coat(s) and original base coats freeze, causing delamination. This compromises
the entire existing stucco system! Once compromised, the only sure remedy is to relath with a new base coat to eliminate the
risk of the paint/elastomeric. A relath with a new base is typically double the cost of a regular restucco! Call me for a
comprehensive estimate. My focus is to preserve your existing stucco system.

You &

Child
It’s more important than ever
to be aware of the dangers that
children face and to do anything
possible to keep your children
safe.
An analysis of more than
4,000 attempted abductions
over the past five years found
that children were at greatest
risk going to and from school or
school-related activities. Most
predators, nearly all men, were
driving a vehicle when they
tried to abduct a child walking
alone or riding a bicycle. The
most common lure was offering
a ride, typically to girls between
the ages of 10 and 14, or trying
to tempt them with candy and
money or ask them to help look
for a lost pet.
Here’s the good news: It

to get away. Those who escaped

CJ’s Upholstery: Personal Attention for Your Furnishings
By Robin Martinez©
Contrary to popular belief,
Henry Ford didn’t invent the
automobile. He simply helped
develop the assembly-line tech-
nique of mass production. And
while the assembly line works
well for automobiles, generic
furniture and bottled drinks, it
isn’t suited for creating one-of-
a-kind, custom items. A unique,
well-crafted item requires the
personal services of a superior
craftsman.
Joe Chavez, owner of CJ’s
Upholstery, is just such a crafts-
man. With over 28 years in the
business, Joe knows how to
