I could even source for my own materials instead of them quoting me because i can avoid their markups.... hmmm....sounds attractive.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pixiepixel 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2010 (edited) u intend to sand it and dun varnish? then it will be totally not protected from any form of moisture. might turn mouldy leh wolflet, i know. but i dun like the glossy look some designers whom i've met told me that they can do away with the glossy look but still have a protective layer. didnt check how they can do it specifically. will be meeting 1 of them tomorrow so lemme check on their "solution" hey btw, idzign also say can leh Edited July 6, 2010 by pixiepixel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
