Pocster

Couldn’t sand this no matter how gentle - it just ‘pulls’ it loose . So a very weak pva mix to stick the edges down . Sample pot of exact matching paint ordered .

Looks like it . ?

Have to be honest when I did my walls with them didn’t realise you are meant to break them in the grout direction . I glee fully went round with my rubber mallet smashing them off across the grout line . Only a few snapped wrong

I found it easier and safer with a Stanley knife

@Gav_P shhhhhh - ( whispers ) go and read Zooties threads . You’ll need paracetamol then for sure ... shhhhhh ?

Go (expletive deleted) one then ! . I let you enter my perfect humble hole and you just leave a grubby deposit .

It will never be finished . I mean (expletive deleted) me still no heating in there - assume you meant @Onoff ?????

You did ! Gold star for you ! ⭐️

Go on ! It’s like War and Peace - but even more boring . I’d also like to point out in the time it took @Onoff to do his bathroom I built an entire house ; so I’m ninja fast !!

Why’s that ? . I was going to start on the floor anyway but only because I’m still waiting on the wall tiles to arrive .

Saga? - you've obviously been spared @Onoff 's biblical bathroom thread. We are only at 50 pages here. I think @Gav_P ; you need to read it and get caught up with true Saga's. ?

Just spoke to paint manufacturer . They reckon if I sand it back super gently and use a fine roller with a watery coat first ( and leave to dry ) - then go over it again I should be ok...... So ordered just a tester pot as that should be enough....

It will stick out like a sore thumb if I just paint it - as it will show texture if I’m not careful

To summarise your response ; we are (expletive deleted)ed either way

Sure thing. I was just checking it's all correct. Tiles not even stuck back on the wall yet....

Right 2nd time ( hopefully ) ??

Assume this is better . Nothing fixed yet . Guessing these geberit pipes go here ?

I know . I remember you saying this in another thread . I do like the smooth non textured finish though . But ‘patching’ it will be a dog unless I respray that tiny area - which I am prepared to do . It’s just the thought of cleaning the sprayer again ....

Waiting for someone to say that !

Nope . That’s why I said 50 quid for a tin in my sprayer . I can probably buy a tester pot and then try your fine roller approach .... Paint was a silk / vinyl ; moisture resistant type thing . The whole point of it being a ‘skin’ is to keep moisture out .

Or just fine mini roller and hope for the best ?

Tempted to pva the edges down . Only a small portion is exposed once I reset the beading . Then mask half the bathroom out . Spend 50 quid on the smallest paint quantity ( same brand obviously ) . Spray it for 10 seconds . Then 3 hours cleaning sprayer ??

It’s like a stretchy ‘plaster ‘ . Actually quite hard to tear . Well ! Apart from the bit I ripped off .

Because I ripped some beading off that had a line of Mastik stuck to the paint .
