Yes I did have a look at Albany and thought their colour range to be very good. I was under the impression that Dulux had sorted out their quality issues regarding drying times and Yellowing? Thankyou for your reply

Haven't used Dulux Trade emulsion for a while so wanted to know how it compares to other brands. What's Gliddens like as I know it's ICI

Is there a more environmental option other than just to burn the paint out?

Just purchased some Hamiltons pure bristle and wanted to know the best way of breaking in. Some say to singe the edges and work in to a wall and others say to trim them with scissors

I have bought Dulux trade for a few years and so haven't really had any experiance with Dulux B&Q, so other than a thicker consistency what are the differences?

Undercoat with oil or water based? Many thanks

I would never trust a second hand Chainsaw. Check the chain tension and give it a good service.

Chainsaws get bad rep and usually it's down to the user. Either the correct safety wear wasn't worn or common sense wasn't applied. I mean a Nissan Micra is dangerous if used incorrectly!

Chainsaws nowadays are completely safe. Kickbacks are a thing of the past and the only reason they did exist is because of blunt blades. The new ones from Stihl are incredible

Can anyone shed some light on the best exterior varnish to use on an Oak front door?

In the market for a good quality Router and am at a quandary as to which Router to buy. Other than robustness what advantages has the professional range over the standard Green and Red range? The difference can sometimes be £100-£150

Gripfill

Good god man where's your backbone?? Nothing that a good deep wash by a specialist vacuum wouldn't rectify.

But then so can a good quality fitted carpet surely?

Obviously this doesn't apply to floorboards. I used to like wood until we had our floorboards stripped, bluddy noisy. Looks nice and maybe it's cleaner but totally unforgiving for little ones. Carpet for me i'm afraid.
