I wasn’t happy and nor was @steblyth1988 but then we were trying out a different approach with a new material. We then went back and applied aluminium. I’m really happy with the results and impressed/grateful for to @steblyth1988 and his side kick Ste for coming back on their days off to get it just right. #thedevilsinthedetails #renovation”
