I have laid laminate flooring in a room. I am about to fit new skirting boards. I then need to paint the new skirting with primer, undercoat and gloss paints.
In the past, when I have done this job before, no matter what, I manage to get paint on the new laminate floor when painting the skirting. I do not use quadrant beading as the laminate flooring goes under the skirting boards.
I have tried sheets of a4 paper slipped in between the skirting and laminate floor. It is not a totally satisfactory solution.
I am now thinking of laying some cut up long strips of polythene dpm when I fit the skirting. Paint and then pull out the strips of dpm.
Comment welcome.
