Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing.
Well done. Also love the music. Very fitting
Thank you!
Thank you for cleaning the sides. So many don't and it's part of the stone. You are so thorough. Thank you again.
Every. Square. Inch. Lol!
God bless you
That was lots of work! Well done! Having access to that hose was very nice, saved a lot of water lugging.
Having access to water was amazing!
Al I can say is thank you. They lived and they died. No matter who they were or what they did, their lives deserve to be remembered. Sometimes the only memory is a piece of stone if there are no descendants or if they no longer live nearby. Thank you for caring for the markers of life. It matters. And you are appreciated.
Thank you! You are so right!
That was so cool but I know exhausting and tons of work. Your dedication is astounding. Show us again when those stones brighten up please.
I will be visiting these in a few weeks… I’ll make a video then and show how they look now.
Those stones are looking great. Wow, 18 monuments in one day! That is quite a work load!
It was! On top of an over 2 hour drive!
Awesome god bless 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you!
Nice of you to make that road trip to clean those headstones!
If someone contacts me and I cant find them someone close by to do it… and it’s practical for me to… then I will always go and do the job.
they look practically brand new you are amazing from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️
Thank you!
Big help. Yo! #homedepot you need to send this guy some buckets!
Hahahaha I use Home Depot buckets all the time!
Look great, thank you again for all you do. I made a few shorts while at Greenwood this year, devastated by what I saw in one.
I’ll have to check those out! For some reason I don’t get notifications of your videos.
Great Job you Two.
Thanks
Much Respect ✊ thanks for caring 💯🙏🏻🤟💫-🕊❤️🩹-

Where did you get that long brush/squeegee tool? I definitely need on of those for granite markers!
I picked that up at Menards… it is called an “acid brush” made by Libman and has a built in scraper on it. Costs about $10. And it’s Tampico fiber.
@@Headstoneman Great tip, thanks!
Sure thing!
Great job! I’m curious about your process on the granite stones. Do you scrub with soap first and then finish up with the D/2?
Yup! If they are really nasty I will soak them down a couple times to soften stuff up…. Granite tends to come clean pretty easy if you wet it down and put some elbow grease into it…. Not recommended for marble though
@@Headstoneman what soap do you use before the D-2?
@@joandeimling7681 Orvus soap
how much of orvus soap and water you use and what you use to clean marble stones with? you really do a great job .@@Headstoneman
What did you use to clean them with?
D/2 biological solution
Queston: I notice you usually clean the base too. Did these not have any bases?
Some of them didn’t… but the ones that did were so sunken and covered in dirt, and I wasn’t raising them…. So I left them covered.
@@Headstoneman gotcha, I've uncovered some that need raised but I'm not brave enough...yet..... lol
I am getting epoxy to fix a couple that need attached to their bases. I may have to pick your brain when the time comes. I will just be assisting the minister and his wife so I want to be sure I'm giving correct information when we do it.
Lol! I don’t care to uncover them unless they are at or above the grade around them… and I only raise them if I’m specifically asked to. Otherwise i leave them where they are
@@Headstoneman its definitely alot more work to uncover them that's for sure.....I've got 20 stones left outta the 80+ in this cemetery
i would like to help that, 100 miles not much so a fund that would pay two days motel & 3 days food and gas for up to 600 miles each way would allow PP to do this at a cemetery that one or more viewers would like but are too far for hiring normal rates.
This was just a day trip, and was actually outside my service area… but I definitely wanted to get it done after the person I recommended wouldnt do it.
@@Headstoneman I'd like to see if other viewers agree with me.
there's two paths here...
either Patreon model where we all kick in a bit monthly to extend his reach end credits acknowledgment
and the "fundMe" model (indigogo etc) where a trip is plotted out and generous budget becomes the goal. people within 25-50 miles of the scheduled trip might want to pay $200-$300 to add "Grandma & Grandpa Wonderful's" memorial to the trip. (i suggest that family of "G-ma & G-pa Wonderful" also required submit pix that assist finding the spot, some cemeteries are HUGE and looking for 3 hours isn't productive)
but not going to happen if there's no interest
