hi all, having an absolute nightmare with a 25m area to be slate tiled.
i was wondering rather than grinding off the paint, which is taking ages and trashing the house, i could pour a thin coat of self levelling screed to the concrete to provide a good key for the adhesive?
i hired a power stripper from brandons and after about 5m2 all i hve succeeded in doing is destroy the grinding head on the tool. the paint has come off in patches but where it wasnt trowelled off, its refusing to budge! not to mention a very unhappy wife with the generated dust (despite putting up dust sheets its got everywhere)any other sugtestions like a re-screed.
who the f@ck paints internal flooring anyway?
