Now, that......................... is a brilliant post.

And it's a perfect name for this self undercoating gloss. :wink:

The best advice I can give you is .. practice fire safety - watch what you heat.

That's a very important point Mr H makes and one which is often overlooked. [/u]

Because he previously said the bottom step has dried out all the one colour with no streaking but it is a lot darker, how can i get this colour to match the other spice coloured bits around the house that have been painted. It may also, be more than 1 problem.

You're steam stripping your paint off the wall. None of it looks any good. If you continue with the wasing on the rad (steam stripping) you will also strip the lining.

I explained earlier. Go back.

I have never ever had a problem with British standard paints...especially masonry paints. Can't see the point in picking odd colours rather than the tried and tested. That's why, I steer clear of non B. S colours.

Could be worse. Modesty, prevents me telling you about my fracture history. :( For a minute there , I thought you were David Haye. :lol:

:shock: You've not been dashin' around like your on 60 minute makeover eh :?:

bikeit - When you buy tins of paint off the shelf, these tins, usually (not always) haven't got a B.S number (British standard) and therefore, can be a problem with shading as they're not all going to be the same colour whereas the B.S ones should be. If it's a B.S tin, it will say it...

Put one on similar to that from a shop called "Al murad". They've got a few shops around. They mainly specialise in tiles but they do a big range of paint, mostly retail and some real fancy papers. These guys are good to deal with as well. No mucking around with vat after. What you see is...

When I was 16, We were doing this huge empty building for the council and I did miles of skirtings by striking a line 9" up the wall then painting up to the line with blue gloss. I spent ages on my knees but I learned fast how to cut in. I had to. :wink:

Some painters do anything. It's not up to the painter what to do, it's up to the customer on what they want to pay for and in this instance he's got what he should pay for. Len still had to have the job done but he's not lost anything. Appeal dismissed. :twisted:

Right. Let's say L.buc, who herein shall be called "Len", refuses to pay gardener, who herein shall be called "Ben". Len refuses to pay Ben so Ben takes Len to court to claim the £180 which he claims he earned. Len's defence is he didn't do a good job and didn't finish but Ben says he couldn't...

I've started to argue with myself now about this. :D I'm quickly turning into Judge Growler. :shock:

I can't make my mind up on this. :?

Wickes, do a clear gloss or satin, oil based, 5 year, microporous varnish.

Stick a picture up . These good lads will figure it out.

Yes . It certainly beats the glaziers way of doing it, i.e. no primer!
