I have heard there are different grades of PU spray paint. Do all PU sprayed have to be "cooked" after application? Coz one contractor say he can spray on-site after built-ins installed

Can spray onsite depends on the sprayer skills.Perhaps they spray finished, after installed on site. they spray minor touch up.. But I'm not longer doing this finishing. Very Toxic, less and less ppl doing this. The fabrication process very toxic. Earn money also hard to cover medical expenses. |

hi Kasey~
Would like to ask whether do you provide wood cutting services on a solid wood counter top and install an undermount sink under it. Mainly I'm looking for a skilful carpenter who can cut a sink hole on my Ikea butcher block. Understand that it won't be a perfect straight line on the cutting but I'm just hope able to meet someone who is willing to accept such small job. Something like this The wood top thickness is 3.8cm and the sink hole is about 93cm (W) x 45cm (H) Each edges has a RM0.10 coin rounded corner to match with the sink. Im understand that the cutting won't be perfect straight line, i hope that someone who is able to provide this service for such small job, with a charges ofcoz. Most appreciate~!
