Hi Guys,
When we had the house renovated a few years ago, we had Lincrusta put on the hall, stairs and landing walls up to dado level.
The Lincrusta was painted with a gloss paint and looked a million dollars. It is now starting to look a little tired and needs a re-paint.
Question - how should I prep the Lincrusta? A fine grit across the top will give a good key where it touches, but what about the surfaces 'below' the top level, in all the grooves and hollows?
I think a good sugar soaping would help, but would it be enough? Some kind of cup brush, but it would have to be really gentle, I don't want to lose the edges?
Over to the experts...
Thanks in advance,
Nigel
