muska1119 1 Report post Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) We had the handover yesterday n spent 2 full day and 3 full bottle of "thinner" to clean the paint on the window n grill n floor..AmazingThis is our best friend for these 2 days .. Helped restore the look of the old window frame Today ID helped arrange the acid wash guy to come again since all our black tiles are bad., under our supervision the flooring now look much better. But lesson learnt never choose any more black Matt tiles, a single white dust is so obvious. Tomorrow painting will be touched up again.. N some of the furnitures also arriving mainly from courts, casa kidi n s&c Edited May 6, 2012 by muska1119 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glossy black tiles are even worse. Any scratches will be so obvious. Yr ID didn't tell you abt the problem with black tiles?? Really difficult to maintain, worse than white tiles.

ayazumi 0 Report post Posted May 7, 2012 Wah.. you used so many bottles of thinners to clean the house? The stain must be very bad. I thought there is a last round of chemical wash + cleaning. Luckily my hubby and I don't need to go through that process, or else I will write long "essay" commenting about our contractor + cleaning process in our blog.

TV can be from one agent, sofa one agent, etc etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muska1119 1 Report post Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) Today my parents got themselves so occupied with handing diff delivery parties again! When we got home, the living room is almost ready except the curtain have to wait a while before we have time to hang up..This is our small living/dining.. So compact.. And the all white dining set is so sayang to use.. Certainly will be the real white elephant if I can get a breakfast table from ikea for use as normal meal times in the kitchen..View From the other side including tv console, the laminate chosen for tv console is a tad too dark.. Some very serious look instead of cosy.. A pityI thk dining light can be adjusted lower, past few days it had been the most dangerous item at hm hitting diff contactors head.. HehThe kitchen with backsplash.. No complain.. Very nice Edited May 8, 2012 by muska1119 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muska1119 1 Report post Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) My hb got v shiock holding the thinner and wiping everywhere .. And this is the disaster he created.. At first I thought it's a 50c size when he told me.. But when I checked.. Seriously I felt like changing the whole door.. So .. Finally tried our luck to text ID.. n yes he is arranging the door ppl coming Tom.. Dunno how much can be salvage..There's another discoloration on tv console also haiz, that certainly cannot be salvage liao Edited May 8, 2012 by muska1119 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
