HI, Guys.... Let me tell you.... Originally, I had thought to never post another DIY Topic, ever again.... But then, after receiving so much support from you guys on this Door-Coating Topic, .... I really thought that I OWED it to you to provide my result... For example, I just think it is NOT RIGHT that someone might ask for advice.... And then not provide the result... If you get my drift.... So anyway, here is what happened: aa. I am a pretty LAZY person. And so, even though I am ALSO a perfectionist, I prefer to just be a guiding light, and guide others to get things perfect. bb. So therefore, since I was COMPLETELY UNABLE to buy Polyurethane, which is WHAT I WANTED, after reading all your good suggestions.... I just got super tired at the store. And I just bought any old thing, some sort of DECKING floor treatment. bb2. Also, this floor decking treatment was quite expensive....BELIEVE ME.... And I thought... OK. If this stuff is really THAT expensive... Then it must be GREAT! cc. So, I just bought it....because...as I say....Poly was NOT in stock...and who knows why.... dd. Well... I started early today, to use a foam brush (as was also suggested here) to coat the doors with one coat. And then, after about 4 hours (I realize this is not long enough, but I was in a super hurry), I just brushed on a second coat. ee. And, during this process, the LAZADA foam brushes kept breaking. AND, every time they broke, and while mopping up the mess....my hands became COVERED in this floor-decking treatment. If you want to know, I am using this stuff called PROTEGO Decking Oil..... And, I think it is SUPER GOOD...but....just don't get it on your hands...is all that I am saying! USE A GOOD BRUSH!!!! Don't buy what I bought, PLEASE!!!! ff. So anyway, after putting on two coats of this Decking OIL on the doors, I think everything will be HUNKY-DORY! gg. But, I still gotta warn you guys.... After getting this stuff all over my hands... It's not so easy to get off. Therefore, best to wear surgical gloves, or something, when using this stuff, and that is recommended. gg2. BUT, I had no surgical gloves... And, I tried alcohol to wash it off, but no go. Then, I tried two kinds of detergent....but no go. And, still, my hands are sticky as HECK.... gg3. You know...even if I wanted to give myself a handjob, which I NEVER do, I think it might be totally impossible. hh. Also, still know problem...because.... I only coated one surface of the doors, plus the edges. And, therefore, maybe someday, I will find some Poly, and do the other side of the doors, and so.... No loss. Wow, Man! Talk about STICKY FINGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think it might be WEEKS before my hands get back to normal.... AND... Thank you guys for your great advice.... And, I just wish I had had the time and EXPERIENCE to follow your good advice..... THANK YOU!!! Best regards... Gamma PS: This is NOT a joke post. All of the above is true. I have photos. PPS: Speaking of STICKY FINGERS..... This boner is a model. Not Mick... No Way! This is what I use.... IT's OK!

Pocket of Miracles? Apple for a dollar?

Yes. But, actually... I think I, as most everybody here, am surprised that it is not significantly lower. Somebody up there must like me.... As Newman says... At least I ain't yellah...

Imagine what the world would be like if.... WMMR FM WWDB FM Were still the same as 55 years ago? Playing nothing but nonstop classical, jazz, and underground.... I know you were there, Man! Licks and Kicks FOR FREE on FM... Those were the days.... Without MTV trash. But, not so good if one prefers cartoons over books. Nobody, today, can read a book without pictures. Why is this not surprising...

Correct. I am not telling you what you do not already know, but wish you did not know. Logically speaking.

Personally, I still very much wonder if I will live out my natural life, even though I am old. We first began worrying that we might not, sometime around 1962. This constant worry is always with us. How much more difficult must it be for someone just turning 17? Someone turning 17, this year, might have 90 more years to think about the Doomsday Clock. So, would I wish to be in their shoes? Someone 17? The answer is no. I am thankful to be over 70. But still.... Sometimes, I wish I were 17....

I mean, just for one.... I am SICK AND TIRED of waiting for the BOMB to go off....

We might also ask ourselves: Are we BOOMERS the very first generation to be THANKFUL that we are old?

Yes. Given geopolitical events. Given environmental trends. I must agree with you, wholeheartedly. I consider myself extremely fortunate to now be over 70. Absolutely.

Wokeness is rather a NON-issue.. I would think....

Please listen to Noam on Wokeness, not to mention the cancel culture....

MIT? Do you think this happens at MIT? CalTech? Do you think this happens at CalTech? If not... Then.... No problemo....

Well.... You can call me Al.

In my opinion, preference for being older in this world of ours....2023 Has almost nothing to do with wokeness.... But, I could be mistaken.

Nope.

Which or Neither Would you consider to be an "acronym", In the technical sense?

FUBAR? or FBAR? JT always makes me feel pleasantly confused.

In your opinion.... Who did it better? Brubeck? Stranglers? I know.... Most of you don't even know what I am talking about.... So solly....

Nice one!

So, anyway....just for the heck of it.... I decided to turn off the UTUBE adblock..... And...watch a few GOOGLE ADS.... But, what did I see? a. Google served up ads in passa Thai, which I appreciated. b. Google served up ads on NOTHING of interest to me. So, I ask you.... a. Does Google know me and my buying habits as well as it TOUTS to advertisers? b. So, then...IF NOT.... Is Google actually scamming the advertisers? I would say.... YES! So then.... What is the point of forcing me to watch UTUBE ads? Is this not just a total waste, for everyone? If ONLY Google knew me as well as it thinks.... But, Google has NO CLUE about me.... Same with the mods on this forum, maybe. The mods don't know, actually, why I love TV..... SO MUCH.....

GOOD! Now! You are worth listening to... NOT YOU! Neil Young.

anodyne for boredom... Might have sounded better..... What a.....!

Another forum member, GECKO123, wrote this: "Not a fan of prolific posters who use the forum as an antidote for boredom, a form of psycho therapy, or because they are attention whores generating mostly unreadable gibberish. Phrases like "those who have the least to say, talk the most" come to mind. What Neil Young said about Charles Manson is apropos: "He wasn't what you call a song writer, he was more a song spewer." Over-thinking at its worst. Headache inducing. Tiresome. Yes, I'm talking about the content spewers who have taken over this forum. Posters who hit 1,000 post counts without achieving at least a 1.00 "like" ratio, especially in a short period of time, should be either be removed or be limited to no more than 5 posts per day. They violate the number one rule of writing: "respect your reader," not to mention the number two rule: "Have something to say." As surely as the Gilgo Beach killer snuffed out his victims, posters like this have snuffed out this forum until it's been reduced to a handful of posters engaged in unreadable, repetitious, and inane bickering and repartee which alienates everyone who doesn't enjoy this type of content." AND, I thought about what he wrote, after he wrote it. AND, I think that, although he might be correct in some ways, still....I think he doesn't understand the purpose of the TV Farang Pub. I think the Pub is for writing and reading about almost anything, within reason. I do NOT consider myself to be a spewer, although some might. I also don't care about what Neil Young said about Charles Manson, nor whether it might be, in some way, apropos. Also, any nitwit who uses this FRENCH word, apropos, I immediately take a disliking to.... So, I am just saying that I think this guy, GECKO123, might not appreciate my posts. And so, maybe he should listen more to Neil Young.... I lost my virginity, the second time, to this song.... Down by the river.

Bob? Who is Bob? Bob Dylan? The NOBEL Laureate?

ALSO: Why the F would anyone want to come to the TV Farang Pub to talk about, or discuss in a truly serious way, SERIOUS topics? I would not. I never do. I hope it's the same with you.
