More about floor



I decided to replace the CVT (composition Vinyl Tile) , old school tiles. This stuff is cheep and easy  (just like me ;-) The concrete in the bedrooms had so much adhesive on it that I got sick of trying to scrape and solvent it off so I could acid stain it or something.  So, I decided to just cover it up again with new CVT. Goes with the 60s house anyway.

 





The living and dining room had very little adhesive under the carpet so they were much easier to prep for acid stain.
