[@rickkinney1249]

would not satin polyurethane be a better choice for a floor? how were the fumes when you applied the lacquer? overall, a good video on a VERY hard job, mostly on your knees on something that had to be done! thanx again rick

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Cheers Rick, yep it was a back breaker and to be honest I just went with what I knew and used before. I don't know much about lacquers but maybe I'll try something next time (hopefully no time soon 🤣)

[@terrymorton9941]

Morrells is brilliant if your doing it in kitchen diner just bang your extractor over cooker on it pulls stench out. Great job kid.

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Hello Terry, nice one.
Yes good shout, I should have put on the extractor haha

[@hazelellis5043]

Backbreaking that! 😆🤣

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Haha, yes it was!!! lol

[@samrix5793]

Yeah!! Looking nice!

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Cheers mate! It was a pain in the ass job, and nearly got high on the fumes 🤣

[@MrDamodee]

nice job!

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Thank you! Cheers!
