i think so. they send me the coupon when they replace the "ikea friend" with the "ikea family" card.

you can take(borrow) my card and coupon if you want, and do a major shopping spree there.....lol.

My hb got v shiock holding the thinner and wiping everywhere .. And this is the disaster he created..

At first I thought it's a 50c size when he told me.. But when I checked.. Seriously I felt like changing the whole door..

So .. Finally tried our luck to text ID.. n yes he is arranging the door ppl coming Tom.. Dunno how much can be salvage..

There's another discoloration on tv console also haiz, that certainly cannot be salvage liao

Your contractor/ID never advice you to use turpentine instead of thinner meh? Turpentine is oil-based, can use to wipe away stain on laminated furniture, thinner will damage the surface.

All gone can re-apply new grout mah. When I am more settle in this new house, i want to scrub away the stained grout and redo using white grouting cement and seal it with a grout sealant.

yup....use the 10% coupon and grab everything you want in one go. the 10$ savings can then be used to offset any delivery/installation charges.

No need to chisel, not careful you might remove the tile if yours is hollow. Stained grout can use green color Scotch-Brite® Heavy Duty Scrub Sponge to scrub away.
