Perfect for those guys who just can't resist marking everything. | Thanks so much, it has help me so much to have this room, it's also an office for our Construction Company. I'm still not done with it tho, I'm going to hand paint grape vines, and flowers over the door ways and such this summer.
As far as the tile, it isn't sealed with nothing on the walls YET...I have a sealer that we got from my Hubbys' Cousins flooring store, he gave it to me and it is the wrong color (Its a really light pink was suppose to be a really light tan) this is what I put on my floor to cover the grout with & you can't really tell that it's a pink color. I'll dig the bottle out and give you the name on it later if that is okay with you.
Our boys when they was in here had their crate up against the wall and silly me didn't think about the tile staining from them hiking their legs well it did stain it on the bottom by the floor but I can paint over it with that tile paint that I have...I would just have to do all the walls and that's why I haven't done it yet. lol...Want to get my flowers painted on the walls 1st...I can do the tile paint in the winter.
I do have to say this paint for the tile is 100% great, I bleach the floors and use a small scrub brush to remove any dirt that gets on the floor in between the tiles and it scrubs right up and that paint never leaves...I love it. With Yorkies I would never ever have anything but tile on the floors and 1/2 up the walls it's the safest way to go for them and me...Save money too on floors and baseboards.
Oh and I clean any pee up or spotting up from heat cycles with Huggies Baby Wipes and it comes right up and then bleach mop once or twice or more (When our Gals are in heat) a week. I love it to death...If they poo then I clean it up with baby wipes also and there U go all clean, can't even tell where they had their accidents...For puppies it's the best room ever. Hope this helps you some...I'll get then name for you of the paint. Hope U have a great weekend. Lee |
