I painted my laminate formica countertops with a paint kit. it's holding up well, but the glossy finish is showing wear and scuffs. I'd like to take it to a matte or satin finish, but the paint kit company only offers gloss. If I sand with a fine grit and dull the surface, can I use this to reseal? How durable is it? View answer

Question 4

I purchased dynoseal safecoat to use for interior sides of pressure treated (pt) raised garden beds. But says should be covered with elastomeric coating. Can I use roofguard for this? Also, can I use both dynoseal and roofguard for the bottoms and side of new pt lumber? Pt lumber is supposed to dry before being treated, but I won't be able to access the sides of the boards in contact with the ground or covered in dirt inside after they are built. Will dynoseal safeguard and roofguard adhere well to new pt lumber? View answer

Question 15

Should I not use a vapor barrier on pre existing hardwood floor? The installation instructions state "Existing wood planks, engineered wood boards, OSB panels, drywall elements etc. must not be covered with PE foil acting as a vapour barrier. The area below the floor should also be sufficiently ventilated in an adequate way (back-vented skirting board) to maintain the equilibrium moisture content of the wood planks, engineered wood boards, OSB panels, drywall elements.". Does this mean that I shouldn't use the 6mil underlayment? View answer

I have particle board kitchen cabinets in a place built over 30 years ago. Only surfaces visible when the cabinets are closed have a laminate veneer. The insides and presumably the bottoms and and backs are uncoated particle board. I want to seal the surfaces I can reach - the insides. I have a full leftover container of AFM Hard Seal from another project. I noticed Polyureseal BP did best at blocking formaldehyde in the tests on your website. Would you recommend Hard Seal, Acrylacq, or Polyureseal BP? View answer
