    .What you up to these days Borzoi?

    I'm not time served - started as a summer job, ended up with them for a few years! Learnt alot from some seriously skilled guys, found some awful twats too! Then got bored with the whole manual labour, hard work aspect, so I went back to college and got my engineering degree. And that's almost ten years ago!

    Hi Mad m,

    Did you ever go by the name "Superbrush", it's been a few years now but he was a "Time Served" painter.

    A good painter can turn a house into a home, a badly painted house is nothing short of a nightmare.

    The nice skips on the ceiling where the roller was running out of paint ? the runs on the doors, how come they are always around the handle or at eye level ?

    Why waste your paint ? get a real painter the difference will be noticed by every visitor but most important by the home owner.

    No sorry i wasnt,myself and another painter who i used to work with were called "Nixer Kings",we never said no :D

    The commonest reason for runs around handle is when the door is being painted in most houses on site, the handles are no put on yet so the paint fills up in the hole for the handles and sometimes runs.
