Hi guys I could use abit of advice, I’m painting my bathroom door using johnstones non-drip gloss white paint, it was previously paint gloss white but it started to flake away real bad so wanting to paint it again. I’ve sanded it down and applied one coat of Johnstone’s any surface paint primer last night, I was just wondering if I need to use undercoat on it too or can I just use gloss paint now ? How many coats of primer should I do first ?

How do I tighten uPVC sliding door handle?

Hi, my sliding patio door handle is coming loose. It’s a uPVC sliding patio handle. The top part has unscrewed itself but I can’t see a way to tighten it back up as the screw head appears to be inside the handle itself. Do I need to hire someone to come and fix it with special tools?
