Protection...what do u use?

[ian158]

....I have a job in a house that has just had a very nice wooden floor laid, I normally use dust sheets or the low tack plastic on carpets but find the dust sheets are dangerous as they slide,l on tiles or wood/laminate. I'm considering using cordex, the 2 ply poly carbonate sheets. But again these slip..does anyone else use this stuff and if so do you tape it down, if so with what as I don't want to leave glue on wooden floor with masking tape..anyone recommend a good tape that will not mark floor ?

Sure you can get rolls of protection sheets for wood/laminate floors like 'carpet roll'.
The only other point is - how much dust are you intending!

I've used a low tack tape for short term fixing down......

I use a product called floorshield available from travis Perkins I think it comes in 50 sq metre roll or is it 100 can't remember. Stick it down using the blue low tack masking tape.

Cordex is a detonating cord for explosives, I'd be careful trying to buy that, you might end up having a few questions to answer:bobby:

When your waking in and out, with tools and cut tiles, it's important to protect the floor, what with all this rain, the occasional tool sometimes slips and I don't fancy chipping there floor !

Haha.. I remember a bit since when my Aunt had a leak down onto her kitchen ceiling and she told me that when she first moved in the ceiling was smooth but she painted it to give it a rougher finish with something called semtex. I said I think you mean sandtex. That just reminded me of it.
