However, remaining tiles | neither set down in place nor | come up without cracking. Some- one suggested using a blow torch| lightly to soften the tiles and re move for resetting, What do you recommend? ANSWER: Instead of a blow| torch, I'd recommend using an electric iron set for medium heat to soften the tile, Incidentally, | this is a good thing to remember | when laying asphalt tile: the) weight of the iron, and the mild heat to soften it helps make a better bond between the tile and the adhesive, CONVERTING GARAGE QUESTION: We want to con concrete, How can they be in- sulated" ANSWER: The walls should be furred out for a distance of blanket Insulating material tween the furring strips. Finish the walls with panels of plywood, QUESTION: A cinder block ad dition to our cotiage at a lake is developing rust spots from scraps of metal such as wire, nalls, ete, working out towards the outside of the blocks. We painted this with a white paint used purposely for cinder blocks, to cover up these rust stains, Now the same stains are showing through, Would plaster or cement coating correct this? ANSWER: I'm afraid that rust stains will continue until the metal works through the blocks.
