Looking for some pointers/tips on painting a one-bedroom apartment.
Just had mine repainted in the UK. The guy sanded down all the plaster work with a huge sanding m/c.....then painted with primer and top coat........looks really good. He said that the sanding was essential to clean the surfaces properly before painting.....could have been lying of course.

No idea to be honest...it was years ago that she had it made.....and she's lost any paperwork she originally had. It just seems weird to me that the shop would take the chance of scamming her......she could have gone to pick it up with someone who knew what they were looking at.....then what?

Gold scam.
Far from it......of course I just shrugged, commiserated and said never mind dear.....🥵

Wife had a 'surround' fashioned for her amulet (a lucky one???) by a Thai gold shop a good few years ago..........B40k.

So a word of warning from the stupid (us) to anyone looking to do something similar.......make sure you get the real deal. Land of Scams
