Best thing to do here is not panic and get stressed about it, its decorating nothing more! I have done a couple of mist coasts on new plaster, then watered down the normal paints then go into full paint.

Skim job the most suited (had it done). Needs to be scrapped down a bit (didn't have it done and my arms said I should have :))

Is that new plaster? Looks like you haven't mist coated enough as yellow frog tape (if that's what it is) shouldn't take paint off that much at worse. However you have to cut in to ceilings from the wall with a steady brush, you can't do this with masking tape as you'll be asking for trouble.

Hi, Just installed one of these and it is not getting below 10 degrees so something must be wrong here. It's brand new, in a standard cabinet depth with 50mm behind the FF. Anybody had similar issues?

Seems ok for about 3sqm of wall I've got, however I'll be binning it now.

Opened up about a two year old tin of Dulux diamond Matt I had mixed up and it had these weird clumps of blue stuff within it. I mixed it up out the tin and it was fine so just curious here what it might had been?

Just did 15SQM of this sht.....awful...Big Mutt tool got blunt so resorted to chiselling out.

Hi, Got this in hall kitchen and downstairs toilet. Do I seal edges under cabs, washing machine section, dishwasher etc? If yes what is recommended? I see quickstep do a silicon? https://www.wood2u.co.uk/quick-step-hydrokit-310ml.html

Hi, Has anyone got a recommend threshold option for my tiles to carpet. that is about 4cm wide, carpet is about 3-5mm higher than click vinyl tiles and adhesive base not screws.

I'd do yourself a favor and just get a mix of Trade Diamond Matt in chosen colour at Brewers or a Dulux Centre. Its more expensive but will water down better and need less coats.

Got it sorted in the end I shaved off click bit and glued.... Really not sure this Camaro Loc is going to last, its very brittle on the locking mechanism.

Ummm, sat on arse at the moment after 15 hours of DIY work.... Do I stick another bit on the end of this one and hammer it in...take off then throw that away?

Hiya, Been working on this fit all day now onto tricky bits. I'm trying to get LVT under the door frame, doesn't seem to be any particular motion of force to move it, any tries have been random. How the hell do I get this to budge..?

What tape have people used to join underlay? It will be quickstep livyn. THanks

I use dulux trade diamond matt on mine high traffic areas...great stuff.

All sorted need wrench and getting leverage standing above worked. It was more the microbore I was worried about regarding pressure applied.

Just had a bacon sarni now cant get my fat hand round back of the valve o_O I am going out to get a mole grip....

I've got a small microbore fed radiator that just won't shift that I need to take off to decorate behind. Trouble is its in a very tight spot. I've tried hammer lightly with spanner attached. Anything else I can do bar draining down and adding new valves.

Scrape it down and be fine with a skim.

For such a small job surely worth trying yourself to do it.
