At my last house I had to pour on the back porch here in AZ in June, I didn't even get into the house to the silver it was dry or waive to the point of unusable. Real working experience and the methods are my interests.
I (like others hopefully) do try to learn thoroughly the risks, hazards & particulars of any craft to make the best choices. I do try to respect all electrical, chemical & other factual players in my work and life, so this is all about trying to know the facts and let the rest fall out. This thread has been very helpful.
Thanks to all who have contributed so far.
