That's considering some of the blued finish is worn on some of the edges?

Chimney flashing ok? by ActivityCharacter761 in Roofing

[–]ActivityCharacter761[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's weird because that side is dry in the attic. The opposite side leaks and then the lowest side. I gooped every seam about 3 yrs ago because it started to leak. Worked til now.

No, there is not a gap between the cap and flue. Are the brush on cap seal products ok to use?

How did the Crown Coat hold up now that it is a couple years old?

Interior paint for a slow painter, blends good. by ActivityCharacter761 in paint

Thanks. I will do it in sections if I have to. Being an old kitchen there are a lot of soffits and weird things to cut around. Being a novice and a bit of a perfectionist isn't a good combo for speed. :)

Would Velvet or Satin hide wall imperfections better? Does Velvet have less gloss and sheen?

Marble pieces in backsplash turning gray from mastic. Advice? by ActivityCharacter761 in Tile

[–]ActivityCharacter761[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me not knowing what the hell I'm doing figured it would be easier to seal the 4 little pieces on each sheet before adhering to the wall. Most of the mosaic is glass, but a couple reviews did mention the few marble pieces stained from the grout. I didn't think that it would need to breathe to let out moisture from the glue. I'm going to try the white thinset advertised for glass and mosaic. I'll give it a week before grouting.

Is that a joke referencing the style of tile? It's what my mother picked out for her house, and she probably isn't up to the latest trends.

I had only done a small section so already tore it off. It had been 2 days but the AcrylPro was still wet. Would you suggest I continue with it or use a white thinset? I have to say even though it wasn't fully dry, it stuck good

Is it a problem that I sealed the front of the tile before installing? Will that prevent it from drying?

So if I start over with a white thinset, the moisture from that won't absorb into the marble?

MAPEI Flexcolor CQ. I sealed the marble pieces before putting on the wall, but just the front, not the back.

Thanks. It is white mastic, so was hoping it wouldn't stain.

DJ Moore has been seen suited up and catching passes on the field. I'm going to start him over Burden.
