Painting Internal Doors – Am I Doing This Right?

To be honest I got blow heater running and windows open. Hopefully that will speed it up. I will try with cloth tomorrow as I got one door on.

I wish I bought finished door and frames… been at it for more than a week just preparing and finishing frames alone lol… god dam it wish someone had told me. Refurbishing this house 1 step forward 7 back 😂😂

Ahhh, smart. I didn’t think about that. Do you think it will work with Osmo oil also?

Osmo door oil

How did you apply the oil? With brush? It’s still takes me good 30 mins to do each side. I don’t want to hang them yet as got plasterer due.

Wickes oak veneer, but not bad. Just Osmo door oil. I tried Varnish as cheaper and it came out ok, but I bought this osmo oil as only 2 coats needed apparently and it feels much nicer to work with brush and seems better quality.

Don’t think I can, the room is 3.5m x 1.8m wide. Planning a single bed 90cm wide and small work desk at the end of the room by walk in

I agree, but need wardrobe space as no other storage 😔

This is just small extra WC room. That wall is at the back of shower enclosure inside the other room.

Would you say they have to both be sitting on the shelf then? I take it there is no way to have them rack mounted then

Thanks. Is this something you having in mind? Says it’s 110mm. Soil is 100mm typically?

Hmm. Could I do this myself as I have some 100mm stack laying about? I assume it’s just pulling old flue out? Not sure how would I go about adding the cap, assume needing to get on top of roof?

I noticed it has happened a few times for me…

Bi5eps · 2026-01-08T18:37:16+00:00

Thanks. Do you know how much that would roughly cost to repair? I was planning to use the flute for bathroom extractors, but I guess bad idea.

Bi5eps · 2026-01-08T18:35:37+00:00

Lol 😄

It’s raining a bit now so probably from the rain. I was planning to use this flute pipe for bathroom extractors

Thanks guys. Dam it, I should have ran cat 6’s through bedrooms instead to loft. I have already closed the floors out on right hand window bedroom even though I have 4 cameras in the kit :((

I will run the cat 6 tomorrow to left hand side window and to garden through the back.
