Hi, all.
Following a re-jig of our kitchen, I need to patch up some bits of the Amtico floor. I already have a box of Amtico 'strips' to put down. ( left-overs from when I had another section of the floor proffessionally re-done. ) Around here, Amtico floor installers seem to be in some kind of secret guild, closed to ousiders. Difficult to get hold of, and expensive. I'd rather just do it myself. It's not a big area that needs re-worked. Any reccommendations on what type of adhesive is the correct one to use? Also, any advice on how to cut the stuff? It looks quite tough. Do you just hack away at it with a Stanley knife? I'll need to lift a couple of 'partial' strips which are down at the moment, which were cut to fit round units which are no longer there. Is it easy enough to lift, with for example a chisel or scraper tool? Or does it tend to be a total b1tch to lift? Any other general points I need to be aware of before having at it? -- Ron |
