    Gidday I have been looking for awhile at different sections getting a whole lot of info, and using it as well. I am currently working on my floor in the Lounge/Dining/kitchen and Hallway.
    Stage 1 Was to rip up all the tiles courtesy of a [was] good mate.
    Stage 2 Get down on hands and knees and pray.
    Stage 3 Against all advice from here and elsewhere proceeded to scrape off all the thick green compounded rubbery glue with a VERY powerful heat gun, also learnt to have a fire extinguisher nearby.
    Stage 4 Sanding the floor still. Against good wholesome advice, I'm testing out my fairly new belt sander - not a floor sander.
    Stage 5 Listen, listen and Do what you guys advise on what water based sealers and semi gloss or satin top coats to put on old blackbutt hardwood T&G

    Amazing

    That's quite an introduction. Welcome to the forum and I hope that you do find some uplifting stories here.

    Even if you have to create them your self.

    I forget to say I have some photos as soon as I can get my teenage son to offload them from this fan dangled thing they call a mobile phone.
