I'd like to purchase several of these 5 gallon natural color (translucent) buckets for a project. They won't be used as buckets, so the print is a problem. I tried to remove the print from a common Home Depot (orange color) bucket. Acetone, paint thinner, and few other solvents had no effect. Obviously, the manufacturer formulated the print to be solvent resistant. If I can't remove the print without damaging the natural color buckets my project will be canceled. Is there a chemical that will do the job?

So we bought a house where the crawl space has some fungal growth on the wood joists that we're going to get treated along with taking care of the drainage issues causing this. I have a few questions regarding this as we got different quotes and solutions. Is it better to hand wipe the fungal growth or spray with something like RMR? One company recommended just spraying while two others said they would hand wipe the joists. Should the vapor barrier be replaced after fungal removal? Two of the companies said the original vapor barrier still looks good so no need to replace it, but wouldn't the fungal spores fall on it during cleaning? And would it be best to do the clean up before moving in to avoid the fungal spores and chemicals traveling up and covering all our stuff? Thanks for your help.
