Fight fire with...Paint?
, who was on hand at last weeks 1906 Earthquake Anniversary Conference to demonstrate their fire-resistant coatings.
According to the manufacturer: "FF88® is a unique fire resistant coating proven to withstand extreme temperatures (more than 2000°F) and resist fires for over 2 hours. FF88 is the first intumescent coating to provide fire retardance and fire resistance to a wide variety of materials such as sheetrock, wood, concrete, sheet metal, foam, composite panels, fiberglass and carbon graphite. Firefree 88 is applied as a paint, is waterbased, non-toxic and has been fully tested and approved for a wide variety of construction and transportation assemblies."
I took this photograph at the conference, which clearly demonstrate the significant difference between their fire-resistent coating and standard Latex paint. The building on the far-left is painted with Latex paint, the far-right with FF88. This picture was taken about 3 minutes after the fireman lit kindling in both buildings. The vendor has also produced a video(wmv)
which shows a time-lapse.

What's wrong here?
1. The title: Capitalize "fire" and "with"
2. "your homes ability" should be "your home's ability". It's possessive, not plural.
3. "Inc" should have a period, despite its being in the middle of the sentence, because it's an abbreviation of Incorporated.
4. "last weeks" should be "last week's." Again, possessive, not plural.
5. "clearly demostrate" should be "clearly demonstrates," something obvious to anyone who recognizes that the subject is singular.
6. Your posts should really close out with something else other than a paragraph that seems like you abandoned your thought in the middle of the day. What's the point of this post? That I should look into alternative paints? That Ralph Lauren paint is gonna burn me to the ground? Whatever your point is, you should say so in your closing paragraph. Don't end it with a time-lapse video. That doesn't provide the correct ending at all.
