Hi all
Downstairs WC finally complete with lino laid yesterday. To avoid "spills" going between edge of lino and skirting, do members of the group usually seal around the floor edge? If so what is best in this application, bathroom sealer? TIA Phil |

If (and only if) the skirting is painted brilliant white, use a white sealer. Otherwise, the clear one is generally much less obtrusive. Choose a good quality one such as Dow Corning. |

Thanks guys Will give the old D C 785 a run out then. Phil |
