rierie 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 maybe do like what mrs piglet say, do partial....or get more answers why it will be the same after plastering...i can see a vast difference for painting on smooth walls and uneven ones....cause i've both.... did they use sealer for you before painting? patchy patchy sounds like uneven painting....when i use darker colours, if never paint properly will be patchy.... do partial? mmm..okie..i'll ask eric on sat (he went to kl le..non-contactable) if not, ask eric to help us fill in the holes with the white thing (is that the sealer?) then use a metal thing to scrap off the "pimples"..do u think it'll solve the problem? as for the patchy parts...maybe ask him to paint a few more layers..dunno will work or not. ya, heard horror stories abt ikea products. but their accessories (as long as not metal) and toys shd be ok. the lounge chairs are pricier but dunno the quality i think can buy those accessories things ba..hahahaha...

I'm sure if the whole wall is plastered properly, it shd be smooth smooth one. Any pics to show us? Then maybe we can see better to advise. Sealer is like a white base to 'hold' the top coats of paint together. Not really to patch up holes, unless the holes are very shallow kinda holes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rierie 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2009 went shopping for sofa on sat. omg...we spent one whole day looking at sofa. went to Beng Tuan, Cellini Sk and the furniture mall. almost faint from trying on sofas. in the end, we decided to get from SY, which is at the furniture mall cuz they provide the cheapest deal with the design that we want. most imptly, they dun save on material. we bought a coffee table also..mm..thought that it's a bit ex.. and a slumberland super single and single bed. they have a promotion for it $868. arranged for all our furniture to come in on 27 June. hopefully everything will be done by then....
