Here's the Answer

By ANDY LANG AP Newsfeatures Q. — Part of our bathroom wall has ceramic tiles on it. A few of them have become loose. Is there any special cement needed to retighten them or any special technique required 0 A. — Remove each loose tile carefully so that it doesn’t fall to the floor and split. Scrape all old cement from the wall and the back of the tile. Resecure the tile with an adhesive made especially for ceramic tiles. It can be obtained at almost any hardware store, lumber yard or building supply dealer. In applying the adhesive, do so onlyon the back of the tile and not too close to the edges. Press the tile into place carefully. You may have to buy some grout to fill in the spaces between tiles. You can buy it where you get the adhesive.

Q. — Please settle an argument. The pilot light on our gas-fired burner went out recently for some reason. I relit it, using a piece of paper tied to a long metal rod so that I could reach inside the burner. It went on quickly and we have had no trouble since. A neighbor says that this is very dangerous to do and that it probably is against the law. Who is right? A. — Your neighbor is correct in saying that there is a certain element of danger connected to the operation, but only if you do not know exactly how to relight the pilot. It is unlikely that it is against the law in your community. The wisest procedure is to have your local utility company send a man to show you the way in which the pilot light should be relighted so there is no danger. If his method agrees with yours, fine. If it doesn't then do it his way. There is another aspect of this situation. The pilot light goes out for some reason. If, after it goes out, it is relit and goes out again, either immediately or within a few days, the burner must be rechecked, Q. — I took all the old finish off a dining room table with the

idea of refinishing it. When I got through, there were still some light brown stains in the wood. Following a friend’s recommendation, I bleached the wood. The stains got lighter, but are still there. What can I do now? A. — Nothing. If a commercial bleach doesn't work, nothing will, because it means that you are trying to get out an oil stain that has penetrated deeply into the wood. But all is not lost. Apply a sealer, then restain the wood before refinishing, using a stain a little darker than the color of the residue of the old one. Seal in the new stain, then finish with varnish, lacquer or whatever you had in mind.

(You can get a copy of either of Andy Lang’s booklets, “Wood Finishing in the Home” or ‘ Paint Your House Inside and Out” by sending 30 cents and a long, stamped, self-ad-dressed envelope to Know-How, P.O. Box 477, Huntington, N.Y. 11743.) Corelul Planning Continued from page 4 work within their limitations. But, often, that isn’t enough. In enclosing a porch for winter use, an addition is really being put on a house. It may not seem so, until the room is fully enclosed. One architect suggests this helpful hint for do-it-yoursel-fers: use photograph enlargements of the house to make a plan before beginning the project. Sketch the addition on several photographs, pass them around in thefamily.Even then, he suggests, you might consult an architect, who might be willing to give you an opinion for a small fee. An experienced do-it-yourselfer can take it from there. An important caution for those who proceed on their own: materials should be in character with the present house. This architect has seen awning-type windows used on very old houses where they are not suitable. The foundation requires careful planning also. The elevation must be proper for the house. If the old roof is to be saved, it will need shoring while the foundation is poured or erected. This part of the job requires expertise. The architect suggests that, in any event, it is a good idea to hire an experienced carpenter to do the framing. After that the labor can be home free.
