grouting tiles... bleh

Rick V 01-03-2010 05:34 AM

You did use grout release, right?

svandamme 01-03-2010 06:22 AM

no idea what that is, don't care.

Rick V 01-03-2010 07:10 AM

It's a chemical that you put over the tiles before you grout. It prevents the grout and it's pigments from sticking/penetrating the tile. It is very good for earthen tiles like slate or terracotta. Just makes life a little easier. Sorry but I like tile work.

it came off pretty quickly, did not use the big tiles, wanted a shower this weekend, and them big tiles i could not deal with without a big tile saw.
So went and got me some cheap white 30x25 white porcelain tiles.
With white grout, so the piss poor tile laying is slightly covered up.

It's not bling, but to hell with that.. Just want a shower and be done with it.
All i gotto do is put a Sillicone/Tec 7 joint at the bottom of the tiles..
And then close up the ceiling, and roof beams...
I'll recycle them big tiles for something else.

As long as you can get yer azz showered that is all that matters. :)

svandamme 01-03-2010 08:04 AM

That's what i'm thinking.
Another prime example of what would get overly complicated with a wo-man on board.

nitpicking about the color of this, color of that, mirror sizes, not enough lights around the sink, blablabla, blablabla.
And then *****ing about how it's not pretty enough and how i should have had it done by a pro

which would not be a problem , if the pro twists her arm out for the money instead of my arm, but i'm sure you'll confirm this Rick, That's not the way it works, innit.


All i care about is :
- Have shower upstairs, rather then bath tub on the street level
- That it doesn't leak

Morning boys..... I'm about to go upstairs and break some little kids legs.... Hasn't sat still for at least 2hrs...

svandamme 01-03-2010 10:17 AM

i'm gonna sign off, been busy as hell all of 2010, need to get some rest before i get the pleasure of returning to work.

Then next Friday i gotta go help gravity make that engine drop @ G-man... And more work in the weekend...

Luckily, in between all this work, i have managed to take care of my #1 person on this world... ME!
And the 3.3 Turbo Heads, X-mas present i bought for that person should be delivered tomorrow or today..

Still more parts needed, need cam and chain housings maybe G-man won't notice those missing next Friday.
And a 3.2 oil pump ain't to bad either...
It would most definitely be a good thing for the parts gap if i swipe some of his parts and add em to my pile :D

* Look G, this oil pump, it's not shiny enough, that's worn out.. You gotta replace it.
I'll dispose of this one for you, has to be done properly the oil residue and all.. gotta think of the environment *

Afternoon Sid.
BTW, that is what kids do

porsche4life 01-03-2010 12:41 PM

I know.... But when I am trying to sleep off a headache it just pisses me off....

Rick V 01-03-2010 12:44 PM

Yeah I know the feeling, when I bought this place 20 years ago, I gave the second floor to the kids. Sometimes I regretted that decision
