    Is that mixed? 1000s of colours with mixed masonry paints. As for price, I have paid over £100 for 5lts with some paints so the DIY offering is good

    35mm black box soxket with USB?

    I swapped my 25mm deep metal boxes for 35mm deep ones as my USB double socket would not fit. Then I discovered you can buy USB sockets that will fit in a 25mm deep box.

    I don't think so. Any trouble buy a small dehumidifier for winter months and run a couple of hours a night

    How long does asbestos removal usually take?

    Garage roof 2 hours. Asbestos floor tiles in a bungalow took me an hour but a neighbor had a company in that took 2 days. I could not work out why it took so long? Soffit or downpipe about 2 hours.

    Whats the best way to protect kitchen sink cabinets from leaks?

    It's a mastic. CT1. Stixall ect. Sticks to wet surfaces. Lasts ages. You could use a clear under sink to seal edges

    Whats the best way to protect kitchen sink cabinets from leaks?

    Use solvent weld waste pipes. Clear varnish chipboard edges. Use polymer mastic around sink area Vs silicone. Just lasts way longer imo. Don't use flexible hoses to connect taps

    Plastic headlight protection coating

    There are spray can coatings on Amazon as mine were yellow. I used WD-40 which cleaned them. Was a 15 year old van with plastic headlights. I decided not to use any treatment in the end and just keep them clean. I was worried solvent spray coatings may not be a good idea.
