  1. OK then....
  2. You can try one or several free color visualizers by uploading a picture of your room and then virtually painting it in different colors. https://www.homestratosphere.com/best-free-virtual-paint-color-software/ It's not a precise method due to the online color representation issues but will get some feel of what you're looking for. When you decide on the color palette you like then you can order a couple of colors of your preference and paint one of the walls as a sample. You might want just to paint a section of the wall to get a "feel". If not satisfied then get another color and do it again until you find what you like. Make sure to use a white primer between the color layers. One more thing. The color mixing machines are not particularly great in precisely replicating a unique color code. There will be no exactly matching batches. If you select your color then buy the full coverage batch from the same store, made by the same mixing machine.
  3. Precisely that, especially in a standalone house. A high-rise condo will get more of a "pure" sunlight, not "contaminated" by the environmental color admixture. Not so in a house where in addition to the architectural details, size of the walls, furniture size and color, the position and size of windows there will also be the added effect of the amount of greenery visible through those windows, or even the color of the neighboring house roof if in close proximity and visible through the windows. Those are just a few a factors out of the possible many more that will greatly influence the spectrum mix of the incoming light and ultimately affect the perception of color of your walls in your unique environment.
  4. Yes, it should be sufficient. Farang712093 wants to sterilize his bottles in order to be able to evaluate the efficiency of his filtration system, and how good it is at removal of the bacterial load.
  5. I haven't looked closely into the spec differences.. Do you refer to bling as in certain safety features?
  6. Of course not in 2023. Nothing exciting is going on in the truck market except for Ford. The fireworks will start with the arrival of the revised Hilux and Triton/Navara.
  7. How do you know? Thailand doesn't get the V6 diesel for now. But they might decide to release it within the next few years when due for a refresh cycle. The order backlog will be resolved by then.
  8. It's been revised in some ways already before the release of the latest model. It's now been significantly reworked.
  9. The 2023 Non-Raptor V6 is a diesel. But will they release it in Thailand? Currently on sale in Australia, NZ etc Long waiting lists!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10. The 10-speed tranny has been revised and updated for the new model.
  11. Thank you. I'll do another try and see what happens.
  12. I normally use a local Government Savings Bank ATMs because they charge a single withdrawal fee that's being reimbursed in full by Schwab. I've tried other bank ATMs and discovered an additional withdrawal transaction fee on top of the "normal" fee. The additional fee is not being reimbursed by Schwab. I keep hearing that "all" ATMs fees are being reimbursed by Schwab but that wasn't the case in my experience. Could you guys please confirm the transaction fees process?
  13. There's a waiting list for most cars, not just electric. e.g. Hyundai: https://www.drive.com.au/caradvice/new-car-wait-times-australia-2022/ https://www.whichcar.com.au/news/australia-new-car-delays-top-20-models-affected-october-update
  14. Available for purchase in Thailand?
  15. @reddo1973 I've looked at Cotto grey tiles. A beautiful finish but the tile thickness was not that impressive as compared to Kera's. It looks to be Kera displayed in the picture above. I don't know about the available sizes but the most common Kera tile size seems to be 4x4.
  16. Adding to MJCM's comments above... There could be many needs. In my case I need to periodically refill a HUGE above ground concrete rain water storage tank during the dry season.
  17. Have you had a chance to compare the noise levels produced by your Scala 2 as compared to the "regular" pumps?
  18. @poobear How much of a difference in motor noise between the Grundfos and the usual Hitachis and Mitsus?
  19. Only 2.7% of all vehicles sold in Australia in the past year were EVs.
  20. The sealant won't improve its structural durability (susceptibility to cracks or general water permeability) as compared to tile. IMHO, there's no any advantage to sandwash over tile other than the price. You might as well would want to take advantage of the superior material (tile) since the local cost of labor and the tile itself is so much more affordable as compared to the West. If you're concerned with having a non-slippery surface... There's a big selection of locally produced Non-slip tiles in various Non-slip R-** grades and designs. https://www.cottolife.com/en/tiles/innovation/r11.html https://www.umi-tiles.com/floor-tiles.html?SID=bs8su2uq2u5phrqv4mjgusipr0&innovative_tiles=373 https://www.directtilewarehouse.com/blog/anti-slip-tile-ratings/
  21. @jethro69 "I wonder how that's done in Thailand?" Not sure exactly about the nature of the question. Just about every pro in Thailand, where necessary, uses cross lasers. Theodolites are always used by house builders for the site surveying and layout. If you refer to part-time builders (farmers) then of course, even the basic tools are optional.
  22. @tweezer just be aware that "sand wash" finishes are not nearly as durable as tile.
  23. They do offer an optional service to collect your samples, at an extra cost of course. I've collected and sent my samples out myself. I don't remember the exact cost but I think it was around 6-7K
  24. https://www.facebook.com/BlueScopeThailand/ 1.pdf 2.pdf
  25. Can you clarify your terminology? It's a little confusing. "Oz Colorbond" as in Made in Australia? "Bangkok made" as in Colorbond sourced from Thailand or you meant other non Bluescope branded material? Just to expand on my understanding. Bluescope is the Australia based brand. It has several coating plants in Thailand, also in other countries. All of the Bluescope branded color coated metal product for sale in Thailand is produced locally.
