I have found this to happen when painting emulsions over oil based paints, as you try to spread paint with a roller, with up and down strokes to give it a smooth even layer, then the paint starts lifting off as the roller becomes more tacky, so in the end the trick was to load more paint and...

My post crossed with your later post with pictures, you will most likely need to strip the ends of the 4 individual wires to bare the inner copper conductor to be terminated by screws or possibly a clamp under the screws, so bare about 3 -4 mm and insert each wire as far as it will go, having...

Is this a flat 4 core wire that is meant to be terminated by means of insulation displacement or IDT , where you push it using an appropriate insertion tool, you should be able to strip the pvc sheath and bare the inner copper conductors, after having ripped off the outer flat sheath. You...

You've got to leave those keyrings in place, it holds the expanding "finger grips" in place, so that it does not fall apart, so it holds those expanding fingers in place, it looks like a key ring but is essentially a coiled spring that will expand when the anchor bolt is tightened in the...

If it was my child, understanding English would be no barrier, he would soon learn, the meaning of instant justice.

what if it was another bully child, tried to bully your child or threatened your child's life, as for me, yes I would also know when to draw a line, even if it was my own cat attacking another human, I would step in and try to seperate the two and if necessary sadly I will have to kill my pet if...

Blightymam, you are not alone, there are millions of childless couples, I am among them too, and I truly don't have any regrets, absolutely none, in fact if anything I am so glad for not having any, in my case I married very late with a woman who was in her mid 40s, nothing absolutely to do with...

Humans are a total disgrace on this once a beautiful planet, that is my honest opinion, that also includes me into this and I am ashamed of it. humans will be the next dinosaurs. Would you consider Kim Jong a human?

There is a lot wrong with Humanity, when people with sickening agenda like the IS bent on destroying Humanity, intending to destroy this entire planet, with the help of foolish nations who don't seem to understand the cunning ploy of IS, and recently succeeded in enticing and fooling Donald...

(this is a discussion, not a challenge or trying to prove you wrong) How do they measure the effort? I have not seen any tester place a pressure sensing pad under their foot and over the brake pedal to do that, I had car with real bad discs where the inner pads were merely 30% in contact with...

OP, do you not talk to your neighbours? and in due seriousness they should tell you what it is for if you regularly exchanged words and held short conversations, just ask them where did they get that gadget from as you would also like one, and I am sure they may say what you mean that spy...

Something that should have been picked up by your MOT man. That is what the idea of having an MOT means.

Really sorry Ian, it was a beautiful cat, I know the feeling. (Very sad for you, please do get another from a local rescue center and don't let her or him out in the front)

I know why, did you upset someone? or did you run off with someone's missus? or if you are happily married, did your wife insure you for 5 million on your life? dual circuit brakes don't suddenly fail unless someone sabotaged your brakes. Or chances are that one circuit had failed in the past...

send a RC drone towards it with a camera and take a close up, if it is a camera, get your drone fitted with a canister of black spray and squirt a few puffs of black paint at the lense, job done.

That is True, it is meant to keep the escape route clear of any smoke, one just hopes if an occupant of a room discovered a fire in his room ( e.g. he may have been smoking or using an electrical appliance that sparked and ignited nearby combustible items) and tries to flee the room in panic...

If it is your own house and you live in it then no compulsion, if you rent it out then some local councils think that tenants lives are more important and precious than yours, or your family's and so you must have smoke detectors fitted and as well as in some situations a Fire Door must be...

Correct I meant fire lining, when I was searching on internet I came across some paint they sell that can be used to convert normal solid doors to equivalent of FD30 fire doors, I wish I had known about this as I had already purchased my door by then, and indeed you will need larger door stops...
