Never Believe the Associates at Home Depot
As previously posted, Doug and I had redone our hardwood floors. They looked great until they dried. The associate at Home Depot told Doug that he needed "this" tool to put down the varnish with. This "special tool" left all kinds of bubbles in the varnish and left it very rough. Now we have to strip the floors and start all over with the varnish. And just regular stripper won't take it off. We have to rent yet another machine to take off the varnish and then start over. GRRRRRRRRR! I have to go back to work tomorrow so hopefully the rental place will be closed the weekend and we can keep the machine all weekend and take it back Monday for the price of one day. So now my chair, shelves and tv are in the dining room (not hooked up), my entertainment center is is the computer room, and my house is basicly a mess. I will never believe an associate telling me I need a special tool for something again. I'll just buy a book on how to do it. Oh well...live and learn...I guess.
