If it starts staining, its time to re-paint!!! That's what my ID told me. Here is a picture of my kitchen without tiles & window grill. It makes the whole kitchen brighten and windy without the grill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

emobebe 1 Report post Posted April 11, 2011 btw any for u guys uses vinly flooring b4?? heard its better than laminate flooring... Hi Immunity, Never use this type of flooring...So, no idea. Btw, are you still going ahead painting your wall at the kitchen or use tiles? I consulted my friends. They said a trend nowadays...but my mum against it very much. Sighs...so haven't finalised my decision yet. How is your reno progress? Wanna upload your photos here?? Eager to see your reno cos understand done by Alan (if i m not mistaken, LOL)??

Erh, I don't know how to teach from here. Ok, I try my best here..not sure you can follow the instruction. 1) Double click your pdf floor plan file. 2) Go to pull down menu under Tool > Select & Zooms > click on Snapshot Tools. Your cursor will turn up like a cross sign. 3) Highlight the area that you wanna copy by holding on the left mouse. Once done, release the cursor. 4) Then, go to Start > Run > Type mspaint > you will see mspaint program open up. 5) Click on Edit and paste. 6) Save under new file name on your desktop. Hopefully, you can get it right...LOL...else have to ask someone else to help you. Cheers:) Emobebe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
