Old Dad's chemist sees to it that our products meet your needs. They are easy
to use and provide a professional looking job that stands up to the hazards
of everyday use. They must also comply with the EPA the APB, the SCAQMD and
all the other agencies that didn't even exist when we started this business
in 1977!
Stains that have been commonly referred to as "oils" have been around for years. We are all familiar with tales of burned out dumpsters or....more unluckily burned stores, factories and homes.
Certain oils may be used today to meet the current stringent VOC rulings but they still leave you vulnerable to the spontaneous combustion problem. They dry very very slowly, not a good solution as far as liability is concerned.
The "wipe-on poly" stains and top coatings made by Jessups are solvent based but there the similarity ends. Our stains contain drying agents so that a rag used for staining will dry instead of staying oily and perhaps bursting into flame if left lying around overnight.
Jessup's uses only Hydrotreated (HT) Solvents, hydrotreating removes unwanted compounds (sulfur, nitrogen and oxygen) and it converts unsaturated hydrocarbons resulting in relatively low odor.
142HT is the highest flash mineral spirits available to us. Ordinary paint thinner is 105. 142HT is the only one we use. We believe in keeping the fire marshal happy!!
They are classifiable as combustible rather than flammable under DOT Rule HM-181. Low odor and no more than a trace of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs) Not reportable under the Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization (SARA) Section 313.
The best way to save on shipping costs is to order enough to weigh 200 lbs... (i.e. 15 cases in any combination of pints and quarts.) This would allow us to ship UPS-100wt or LTL.
Our coding is pretty simple...the first letter or letters apply to the product (SM=SUGAR MAPLE). Next you find a number which relates to which particular batch this is in the particular month. ex. SM9 would mean it was the 9th batch we made that month. SM9J9 - probably the only part you would be concerned with is the last letter (which refers to the month) and the number following it which indicates the year. J9 would indicate that it was made in September of 99. (the letter I is not used) This year our code will end in 0 for the year 2000 but the months will start over as usual. SM9A0 - this indicates batch 9, Jan 2000. Don't forget to rotate your stock - it makes sense!
Thanks,
Old Dad
