Not in the "Chip and Pin" sense, more in the "walk in for a tin of varnish and some sandpaper, and walk having done the best part of £200 sense". DIY question: is there any special stuff to put over knots when repainting?

What, to apply a bit of knot stopper, and stain/varnish the window frames? Given the fucking awful job done by the builders, I can't possibly imagine doing a worse one. No, I do not KIMS. As an aside, have you (or anyone else, for that matter) got a ladder you could do without for a week or two? No rush - in fact the longer the wait the better, from my point of view. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ _/_____\_ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/KH500A8/TS250C |_\_____/_| ..64299../..15196.../..3157./.19406 (>|_|_|<) TPPFATUICG#7 DIAABTCOD#9 YTC#4 PM#5 |__|_|__| BOTAFOT #70 BOTAFOF #09 two#11 WG* \ |^| / IbW#0 & KotIbW# BotTOS#6 GP#4 \|^|/ ANORAK#17 '^' RBR-Visited:13 Pts: 250 Miles:1237
Indeed, patent knotting is the stuff, alternatively aluminium wood primer, but make sure it's got leafing aluminium pigment. -- Dan L (Oldbloke) My Bike 2000 Honda CB500 M'boy's Bike 1990 Suzuki TS50X (Heavily fortified) BOTAFOT #140, DIAABTCOD #26
Well you are an Orifice Worker and they don't *do* manual labbour do they ?!? As long as the frames are fixed in you ought to be fine ;-) Ladder............Nah..........I don't do me own winders as they is double glazed and plastik and as I installed them meself wiv nice light pine frames which were varnished before installation I have little use for a ladder. Knowing your place I reckon you could hire one for a few quid a week with a *Standoff* to make it a little easier and while you're up there do the gutter an' all. -- -- Robbo 1500GL 1988 Goldwing (Rebuild in process) BMW K100 RS 1984 "Fairly Quick" status.
