    The Screeding one is the best. Mixing it per 1ltr water to 5kg of powder. Take all day.

    I love the gloves, the stretcher, the woven carpet, the amount they tried tucking but i really want to know why matt+ Daniel of FloorSkills Training Centre didn't teach me these skilled methods.:p

    Not bored or anything but watched how to fit vinyl flooring as well. Ha Ha.

    At least after a customer has had a go, got bubbles (prim fix 4 walls) or stains from the spray / tape, ripped it, cut it short, c*cked up basically, we should get them coming back to the pro's to do the job correctly.
