We did end up getting through it all, thankfully, but the whole time we were wondering if the drill would just die and leave us with a half a floor, or blow up in our faces.
We learned later that our mixing wand was too wide, and one with.Even though this is a decluttering quick-fix, it still takes a lot of time.
One area of the house per day seems to be a pretty reasonable expectation for what you’ll be able to get done.. -If you have any major renovation materials to get rid of, this would be the time to do it!Have a plan to get as much of that stuff taken care of as well.. -Have back up ready.
