I have perhaps a dozen bright nails that accidently were mixed in with the galv. nails.
They were spot primed in the fall and are now rusting. I don’t think I can get them out without damaging the trim.
Is there some way I can treat them and leave ’em. I am getting ready to paint the house this spring.
Who has a good idea?

Punch em in deep and bondo over.

That's a neat trick getting you and Doug to say the same thing at the same minute. And then person #3 had the same suggestion in the next minute (must have been slow on the 'post' button).
Suggestions now in stereo... I mean in SURROUND sound! ;)

Set them deep and fill with an exterior filler.
Use a nailset to pound them deep into the wood. Putty the holes and renail nearby with the appropriate galv. nail.

Don't pay attention to these guys.
What you should do is go deep, fill, nail with galvy.
NO no no NO!!!
the chemical reaction between the cedar and the brihgt nail has already infected the structure!!!
all sidding must be carefully taken off packaged up and shipped to Luka for testing.
the dreaded ferro-cedar coagulitis spores have formed in the nail hole and mold will inevitably envelope the building.

I will begin removal this morning and check this board tonight. I've got some electro galvanized drywall screws that I can use to apply the new stuff

you know he has to pull that studded wall to the sill and peak and all framing members connected directly or indirectly to those common nails...

I have evacuated the neighbors, and painted a large orange X on the site.

Canisters of napalm? .... You're not playing with a full hand!
A little bit of action from this bad boy is what our friend's siding needs.
It'd save him the work of tearing that siding off, all the better to start reconstruction on a cleansed site.

he's spread the contamination to the bay..

and there was no mention of her having a containment suit to wear...

Bigger - a baker's dozen then. That siding must look like sh*te, real real bad.
Too bad about the bay, the truck and the tools, not to mention the wifey. How long did the doctors give her?
Such is the price one pays for a perfect home. frenchy knows all about that.
On the other thread, frenchy's trying to figure out a way to get his foot out from under the leg of the chair he's sitting on.... Seems that way to me anyhow, what with drilling a 10' hole in a load-bearing post.

I just got off the phone with the office.
Apparantly on the seventh revision the Archytechy specked that a handful of brights be intentionally mixed in with the galvies.
this is supposedly for historical authenticity....
and the REMF's in the orifice didn't think it was important enuff for us grunts to know about!
Someone from the office will be driving out before QT with the RIGHT set of plans(for this week).
So clean up the empties and pizza boxes, find your hard hats and safety glasses and find a way to look busy!!!

I am at a loss of words.
Are you saying this all might have been avoided with a little timely communication?
That my life has been torn appart because the paper trail brokedown along the way?
That the world is near destruction because I failed to RFI a simple field decision?
Do things like this happen in construction? Who is gonna get this project back on track? Is there a green college graduate we can call in to enlighten us?
I am going to have to take a moment to decide if I really want to be in construction.
.......O.K. I am back, this is my destiny (and the bills just came in) I shall go on
By the way Jerry...I mean Giselle has been a real help in the trailer since the operation, hasn't he? who would have thought the transition would go so smoothly for him, I mean her.
It's disappointing that you guys are so cynical that you're giving the poor guy the hardest solution. Anyone knows you can electroplate the nails yourself by connecting the live side of the feeder to the frame of the house with a large spike while grounding it to a galvanized bucket buried in the yard. The zinc will migrate to the nails in question, electroplating them in place while you sleep.

Had my wife take the truck and dump the tools in the bay. Hope the game warden doesn't see her!
I went to get some contamination suits for the reconstruction, when I got back my lot was surrounded with crime scene tape.
WHICH ONE OF YOU CREEPS CALLED THE FEDS!!!
Not to worry though, I emptied my bank account directly to my local building inspector. He says he'll "take care of it".
I have contacted my lawyer and he thinks I might have a case against Home Depot for selling me the blue box when they should have known I needed the green box.
what a guy...
probably made yur wife walk back 'cause she had to dump the truck too...
and it was uppose to be the purple box or at least the brown one...
BTW.. ya gotta drain the bay.. ya contaminted that too... then there's the thing about all that marine life.. or what use to be life..

Oh. I thought she'd driven the new truck into the bay: you know, the Dodge crew cab with a red box. The purple and brown trucks are on their last legs.
All this misery for the want of twelve (12) galvy siding nails.

well yes, but unfortunately I put my faith in post #7 and now my house is a pile of rubble, my wife is turning green, and the feds have choppers circling the area.
At least my air gap is still intact on the dishwasher though, so my legal troubles should be minimal.
Well, unfortunately, the house and the tools and truck are goners.But I might still be able to save the wife.Give her a tin foil hat and slippers, (and nothing else.), and send her to me at once.It'll probably only take me a year or two to get her cured.I hope she likes her physical rehabilitation sessions twice or more a day...; )

I am trying to schedule a televised appearance in which I will apologize for my carelessness in choosing my nails, and make a personal commitment to keeping my pouches clean and organized.
I am also considering a grassroots drive to have bright nails eliminated, no sense in having a nail smarter than I am.
Small steps for me, one large step for a shorter guy.
