    cleaning up masking tape stripes on LVP

    Agree with Daris as they could say you used the wrong product trying to remove the marks. You own it We have found some tapes seem to have a chemical reaction to some vinyls, tape wrapped around vinyl rolls to stop the stock rolls standing up unwinding for a length of time never to disappear...

    What did you do today?

    Another real stupid/silly question Why did you cut out the cedar replacing it with ply instead of smoothing the upstand area with a product like Feather Finish? Marmo hides a lot And I meant a 6 inch or so wide piece of ply behind the the 2 pieces where you joined the wall pieces

    What did you do today?

    To late now but could you have put a piece of flat timber behind then screw every thing together? Are you doing a cove as I thought you were doing an upstand as per a piece on the flat as an upstand? The reason I suggest is to do the upstand first is that you do not have to scribe the upstand...

    Yes a few of our English friendly carpet layers arrived here doing the same thing and wondered why people complained, even people who lived at England wondered why they never got the bars in their doorway joins instead of a heat bond seam as they felt ripped off.
