Jude suffers debilitating blow

@Coke>>>Pepsi...

Maybe everyone already knows this and I'm the idiot but nevertheless I found it quite disturbing. Anyway, the other day this gal I've been seeing managed to play the radio too long on my car...long story short the battery died. Some Nebraska-classy Texan gave me a jump and in the process he noticed that he had a ton of battery corrosion build-up. After showing me, he asked if I happened to have a Coke in the car. I had just made a Costco run earlier in the day so I had quite a few still in the trunk. Basically the guy explained to me that if you pour Coke on your battery, it completely erodes battery acid build up.

I found that quite comforting.

Concrete finishers spray coke onto newly poured and troweled concrete to eat off the top layer before hosing it off to make exposed aggregate finish.

Man, no they don't. Really? Like a larger pump spray bottle or cannister?

I just had stamped concrete done ... The only thing I noticed was some color powder applied to match the house ... And the rain washed it away soon after.
 
@PurpleThrobber has been jumped by a Texan before too.

I wish it was just the battery on which he sprayed his sticky syrupy liquid.

They're not kidding when they say everything is bigger in Texas.

Look in the back of the concrete truck for a 5 gallon pump sprayer. Ask the contractor what he uses it for.

It sounds like you bought colored stamped finish, not EX Agg

Yah, we went stamped, not exposed aggregate.

I guess the contactor buys coke from Walmart or Costco or something?

"Honey, going to Costco for a couple hundred flats of coke, you want a churro?"

Well anything mildly acidic would work. Coke happens to be cheap and available.

Cool - where are you right now ? I will take everything you have in stock...

I know you think I said "a lot" - no, I said all of it, the entire inventory
 
Real contractors use salt. And if you don't get the color mixed in the concrete you might as well buy from the gypsy that has some left over concrete and will do your driveway for you at a discount

True. It degrades over night. Concrete might actually last
