Need a Hand?
Your Next Project Starts with Brownstoner
ROFL and Congrats, benson! I seem to recall my father having a similar reaction when he cut me off completely!
I’m with M4L- its a dog. You can see the front legs and the broad chest- cats forelegs would be closer together.
I just reached a momentous point in my life. You know what it is??????
I just made the last tuition payment for my daughter. That’s it: she’s on her own from here.
Yippppeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! I’m free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DIBS, you in the ghetto this weekend if we do a Bed Stuy walking tour?
M4L, I have to check with Amzi on this weekend. I think it’s a go.
ah nevermind then. for some reason i thought it would be an easy project. i probably shouldnt even attempt to do it anyway since it’s a rental. i used to cover my floor with a carpet but i stopped using one and now the scuff marks on the hardwood really irk me!! and when i sit on the floor sometimes i catch myself picking at the scuffs and making it worse! grrrr

Rob;
A friend of mine just refinished his floor using one of these chemical strippers, and the results are truly amazing. Apparently it is a two-step process. The first step is the application of a chemcial that dissolves the top layer off the old polyurethane. It leaves the bottom layer of the old polyurethane intact. You take off the dissolved goop with a squegge-type mop. Then you apply another layer of poly.
This process does not require a high skill level. As I mentioned above, the results are amazing, given its simplicity. Not as good as a sanding/refinishing, but more than adequate for a rental apartment.
If you want me to find out more info about this process,let me know (name of chemical, where to buy, etc.).
that’s a DOG in the HOTD. For those who think it’s a CAT, goes check your eyes.
DIBS, I meant to add, stick with a single simple recipe until you get it right, then keep going.
