That's funny

One of mine too . . . the guy had to have been a mud dauber reincarnated into a human . . . mudded over mollies, receptacle boxes, nails

. . . reminded me of a guy whose only tool is a hammer, and uses it to fix anything broken

Looking at painted wall sideways

D

Dianne on Aug 02, 2010

I just painted my hallway, I can't figure out why it looks great if you look at it facing the front of the walls, but if you stand at the end of the hallway and look down it sideways it looks shiny in spots.Read More

Difference between woodcare brush and emulsion brush?

J

Jamesb on Aug 04, 2010

Hi, everyone, please excuse my novice in this area, because I got so many questions that need you guys to help me! This is only my part I of my questions, i will post the others later~ 1. What does one look for in a good “woodcare brush”. I would assume that any brush that has pure bristle would work just fine as a “woodcare brush”, including a generic Emulsion Brush that is made of pure bristle? If so, why do the stores label the brushes as “woodcare brush” specifically? What makes a good “woodcare brush” and why can I not do the same job using an Emulsion brush made of pure bristle? 2. Also, some brushes are labeled as “woodstain brush” or “timbercare brush”. Are there actual functional differences between the “woodcare brush”, “timbercare brush” and “woodstain brush”? 3. How would you differentiate the functions of a Timbercare Brush from a Woodcare brush, and if so, what are the characteristics of a Timbercare brush that is different from a Woodcare brush? Sorry for my long questions, Hope somebody can help me, >.< THANKS!!!!Read More
