I was trying to figure out if the Trump license was worse than the Cindy Crawford license. I'm gonna go with Trump. I shudder to find that hair in my bed.

I wonder if you can use that Dutch floor in a basement, on top of a plywood floor? Would love to see samples of it!

Re: Bolidt.

That shiz is expensive! In my house I have seamless floors made of Ardex, which is a poured, self-leveling engineered concrete. It is ultra lightweight (less than 0.5 inches thick) and is also warm to the touch and fairly resilient (since it's mostly used in commercial applications). It can be poured onto a plywood subfloor; however, the subfloor has to be 1.5" thick and screwed down every 6 inches (basically two layers of standard 3/4" T&G). It's beautiful stuff that can be finished in any kind of color or design and costs well under $10 a foot installed. A few hairline cracks have appeared here and there, but it adds character, right?

...and yes, seeing the Donald on a bed, a TRUMP bed no less, made me throw up in my mouth a little...

The pictures above Trump's bed aren't hung straight. Somebody needs to be "fired".

Curtis, the whols Trump room looks a little funky and crooked. I think there was some weird photoshopping done to it.

If Trump were not in that picture, what would people think of the stuff? I actually like it. Given his penchant for brass and gold, I am actually impressed with the restraint of that room.

And I followed the link to the corn stripper... sooooo not what I was hoping for. :)

Yeah, I admit it, the Trump stuff is not over-the-top gaudy, like I'd expect.

Hejiranyc,

I'm curious about this Ardex. Did your contractor recommend this to you? I'm surprised they poured this over a wooden subfloor. Can this stuff be used to make countertops?

Italian kitchen cabinets, concrete floor....where are the pictures? Share with the rest of the kids!
