    Exclamation help fire damage

    it has happend we have all been wating for it!

    i have had a fire (plastic, wood and paper burnt) in my shed
    the whole 5x5 shed is black i have tryed to clean tll the black stuf of it but it wont come off. i have decided to get it as clean as i can then paint it. but the real question is what colour to paint it.

    i dont think i have lost my mig or arc welder and all or my hand tools are fine so i am not going to clame it on inshhurance becatse i put the fire out and i was moving tools ect out of there so there is no evedance.

    thanks tom/wodstok

    I think when you make a post like this more detail and preferably some photos are mandatory....

    On the issue of color I say paint it black so if you do have another fire it won't be so noticeable!!!

    i am sorry but i cant post pics i dont have a digital camera. i dont want to paint it black because it will get very hot in there and it will make the shed darker in side. i was thinking a zinc colour or a light gray ani ideas?

    mix 1 part patience with 2 parts elbow grease a roll of sandpaper.

    and it should come off fine.
