I recently installed crown moulding in a bedroom and used the Door & Window Clear Caulk by mistake. Help!?

I recently installed crown moulding in a bedroom and used the Door & Window Clear Caulk by mistake. Do you think I could apply Painters White Caulk over the existing Door & Window Clear Caulk and all will be ok as far as getting a clean line?
It is paintable. Thanks for all of your help.

Call the hot-line and ask, there are different kinds of caulk out there, and what I use might be different than yours.
Check if it is paintable, if so you can just do that. You will need to let it dry before you do anything.

Stripping Tool
You know where I can buy a tool to remove the thorns off roses?

I understand that these tools can be bought in supplies wholesale florist but I know of none. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Alex is right, you can use a few common household scissors. If you have a lot of strands, and although they are not comfortable using it, I left a link to the page afloral below. I have ordered supplies in the past, and always have been satisfied with their products and services. I linked directly to the home page stripper * laughs *… I said "stripper http://www.afloral.com/Floral-Supplies/Tools "…..; Jsessionid = ac112b1f1f43a50f4e5bbcec4cd48e40aff5db71c5fe.e3eTaxiNaN0Te34RcheQaNuMc350n6jAmljGr5XDqQLvpAe Take care!:)

Sunlite Window and Door is the best?

Who provides the best service for the supply and installation of doors and windows in Minnesota? I hear Sunlite window and door is not the best price. Anyone know?

When you buy Windows, use window and door RJF Owatonna. (507) 444-9516 Ron and Jo construction high quality products and buy direct from the factory. Hook Me Up is a trusted installer. Usually save at least 20% in type and sunlight. No vendors commissions are paid to these agreements. I had my best friend called and he got better and windows of all the work was half the price that Windows said Larson. I at least give them a call before I committed to anybody.

Standard Receiver
DIRECTV – Receiver standard to HD DVR?

Well I am a DIRECTV customer with regular type receiver. I just bought a big screen TV flat, so I need to upgrade to high definition receiver. So my question is that what if I buy the HD DVR receiver-local or a person Directv line instead of itself, will the DVR work or need a service for that and what my current channels, which are loaded in proper HD quality with HDMI? If the DVR is not possible, so what if I just bought the HD-receiver will be my load of current channels? How does the access card? I have one, but if we introduce to a different receiver, will all my channels to be there? Please someone clarify ….

Call before you buy a Directv HD-DVR elsewhere. You team can qualify for the discount. BTW, a new HD dish is required to view HD programming and online retail normally does not provide the plate. A dish can be bought through DirecTV and can have it installed, but usually included in the update of the receiver. You need to have access to DVR and HD assets in the account in order to register and receive HD channels. If you buy a pre-owned receiving an access card is necessary (in charge of, I think Directv $ 20). The first stop should call Directv.

Tool to me remove paint with my heat gun?

Im stripping our staircase of years of paint using a heat gun and the tool which came with it (a small steel triangle).

Ive got to the stage now where I need a smaller tool to remove the paint from the hard to get to areas by the spindles.

Can anyone suggest a good tool to use with my heat gun.

Please do not suggest Nitromours as Ive used it before and dont fancy the mess again.

10 points for the best answer and who can supply links to the tools needed.

cheers
Yes i am based in the Uk.

thanks

there is a different type of shaving hook you can get in any good diy shop or a 1 inch scrapper. its best to use nitromours and wire wool when you have stripped all the paint this will get your wood looking really clean just wash down the wood with white spirits and sand down i done it on my stairs looks great

How do you break into a locked window/door?

I need to be able to get into a locked door, and we’ve tried taking the frame off and doing it that way, it worked until the guy noticed and staple gunned it back on.

it’s nothing illegal, my best friends dad keeps locking the phone in there and we need to use it. its such a safety hazard.
Breaking into a locked bedroom door? I don’t think that’s illegal. Why would it be illegal to break into a bedroom when she lives there? It’s not like I just walk up and decide to break in the front door.

It is illegal to open a purposely locked door in any structure without the permission of the property owner. Forcible entry constitutes Burglary in most states. Its obvious he doesn’t want you in there and he can put you in jail for forcing your way in.

Wall Plates
How can I connect a HDMI wall plate for a home theater?

I want to wall mount a TV with the cables behind the wall. I'm looking for a clean look with wall plates. Is need for a separate HDMI cable behind the wall and then 2 more HDMI cables to come in every port? One in part top, one on the bottom? 3 cables for HDMI connection seems extensive, but each cable will only be 4 feet

You will need a cable to connect wall plate to the TV and then the wall plate to the other component (DVD, receiver …). Then you need a cable to the wall to connect the two plates wall. So technically it requires three cables, which can get expensive. But the connections will always be clean to be more expensive. I be happier in the long run, however!
