kitchen before/after
Maybe it doesn't look like much to you, but moving all dishes, refrigerator, furniture and then painting walls and urethaning floors took some doing, trust me. I had to grab whoever was around to help me move stuff or risk damaging floors further.
Well, I did that anyway. After painting half with qwikdri Minwax semi-gloss, I finished the rest with high-build Minwax semi-gloss. Both oil based. I didn't know there were so many kinds. I knew something was wrong when the first can looked orange inside and the second can looked green. Now half the floor gleams gently and the other half looks like a freshly waxed bowling alley (do they wax bowling alleys?). I am assuming that with enough sand and dogs it will mellow. If I don't go blind first.
We are liking the couch in the kitchen, however.

Bravo! Did you move your throne?
Yes. I am now sitting in a regular chair. When I am sitting. . .
It is hard to believe that after al those years doing magazine work you would have troubles glossing over something
Yeah, but huffing solvents appears to impair your faculties.
wow I am realy impressed by the amount of work you have accomplished..rain and shine...even if it is too glossy
