    Karndean flooring. Advice on screed and glue needed please!

    Cheers. How would the Karndean course compare to the FITA luxury vinyl fitting course? The latter's a 4 day course for less money and is closer to where I live, although I would rather pay more for less time and travel further if it's going to benefit me in the long run. Thanks for all of...
