Re: Where can I buy Sealant Tape Used for Applying Sealants?

'Anybody' does not include me - I have tried it before and got into a right mess - but I will watch the video and see if I can improve - I did find it easy using the tape though.

Help With Removing Adhesive From Removed Porcelain Tiles

Could I Paint Over These Door Handles Successfully with Metal Paint?

Hi DIY'ers, Just moved into a house which has nice new doors but awful door handles. They are brass coloured with a plastic handle covered in a flower motif.
