I have just bought a car that was sitting for a year and has mold all over it. I know how to get it off the paint but it seems to be eating away a little bit of the rubber molding around the windows.Ive heard of bleach, and acids but its to close to the paint to use those any other ideas?
Put up a lightning rod! A standard outdoor TV antenna will do the trick, IF it is properly grounded. First make sure your antenna is higher than anywhere else on your house. Your best bet is to use a standard 75 ohm coax lead-in, and run the coax thru a grounding block (easily obtainable) before it enters the house. Then GROUND the heck out of that grounding block by running a conductor from the grounding block to a really solid ground, like a copper stake driven 3 feet (1 meter) or deeper into the ground near your house. That should drain away any excess buildup of static electricity harmlessly into the air, protecting your house from a strike. It will NOT protect your house if a nearby object (like a tree) is struck. So to be on the safe side, in a lightning storm, unplug all electronics, don't use the telephone, and don't take a bath.
Try unplugging all major electronics, TV, Stereo, Computer etc
Use surge protectors and don't stand near the pole. Oh and no showers and talking on a corded land-line.
Re: Another question: The thermal detectors described as home motion detectors would be the SAME thing as a home infra-red detectoraltho there are certain fire alarms that may also be called infra-red or heat detectors. There are other forms of burglary type motion detectors such as beam break or :reflected beam photo sensors, and loud noise breaking glass or pressure detectors as well. There are others too, such as microwave based motion detection.
