    Default paint/colourbond

    anyone got any sensible ideas to get my sloppy paintwork off the down-pipes which are colourbond. Paint is exterior gloss acrylic. I have thought about painting down-pipes but then i'd have to get the dags off house LOL . Next time I'll mask, but until then ------anyone????

    Depends how old it is, but metho should take it off when fresh.

    Also hot water and sugar soap.

    Try using a waterblaster - Acrylic paint sets like plastic sheet and once loosened should peel under pressure

    Default paint that looks textures like material

    hi anyone got any advice on what paint to use on kitchen cuboards (they are melamine/formica/vinyl) not sure what you call it but the regular stuff you see kitchen cuboards made of. is there a special kind i need to use and also i was going to use a paint to do the feature wall in the bedroom that paint that looks like its material when its on the wall ( i think it might be a velvety look) anyway someone told me not to bother as the next time i will want to decorate i will have to sand the whole wall down first before painting as its got grains in it. is this correct. this is my first renovating attempt and i know im not too good at it but any help advice or information would be greatly appreciated. thanking all in advance
    kind regards
    Enya
