      Latest edition is 2021. I read the older edition borrowed from NLB; not sure if they have this latest one too.

      Yes NLB has the latest edition in ebook version. I’ve just finished reading it on my Kobo & returned it so the next person on the waiting list can have it :boogie:

        OMG... so many things like sealant and waterproofing :nailbite: I thought I only need to buy paint and brush :slapshead:
        I'm thinking of getting a roller brush. Good idea?
        I have heard (no actual personal experience) that it takes some practice to manage a roller smoothly. Maybe you can look up some Youtube videos to get advice?

          A roller brush with good absorbing cotton twines, a wooden long pole, a paint tray (u can put a strip of plastic or one of this tabao box cover at the point where u press out excess paint before painting), and u’ll need brushes for yr corners touchups. Dip your brushes in water after u complete 1st day of painting, so yr brushes will be soft for next paint job.

              Which grade internal paint is recommended? I was told Vinilex5000 is not good enough / recommended.

                    Hmm... too troublesome. I think I'll just get a normal brush. It's just a small toilet ceiling. Hopefully the painting will last for at least 1 year 😂 . I will go to buy white paint from Geylang tomorrow morning when I do my jog. Dulux paint you said. Any particular type of paint I should get? I'm a total noob... 😓

                      toilet/bathroom ceiling are damp from hot water humidity. important to paint with \"anti-mould\" paint. most neighborhood hardware/diy shop will carry. i did single coat 2 years ago. ceiling still white.

                        Try NOT to do it when no one is at home, in case, you fall down or faint, other family members can immediately attend to you.
