IMHO Looks to me like a manufatcuring defect. They use a black paint/ink for labeling. It looks like a bad nozzle or a leaking hose. Not a defect in the OSB. GP manufactures this just down the street.

I have seen this too. Its more of a pigment stain in my opinion and not mould related.

I could totally see an inexperienced inspector saying this was mold and scaring the living day lights out of the client. Literally this was everywhere. The buyers were there and said "oh my god thats allot of mold"

Most likely someone splatter something at the worksite when it was in a stacked uncovered pile.
Cleaning a foundation form oil sprayer and it went on the sheets. Nothing alarming to me and would not even note it. Marcel LEED Green Associates InachiAwardsPortal: Inachi US Member of the Year Award 2009 |

Yeah I agree Marcel nothing to note here. I will say again I have never seen this much of it.
It is literally on every single sheet in the attic. Troy Farmer Presidential Inspections LLC Chapter President Southern Idaho PO Box 2144 Eagle, Idaho 83616 208-573-5300 http://www.presidentialinspection.com http://info@presidentialinspection.com |
