O2 Media’s Hit Show ‘Designing Spaces’ Welcomes Lafarge North America to the Program
DIY Tips and Tricks from the Experts
Here on Designing Spaces we know there are many projects homeowners can accomplish themselves to help maintain their houses and property. If you’re looking to make some home improvements on a budget—then you’ll want to tune in as Designing Spaces teams up with Lafarge North America, airing Friday, May 28th at 7:30am on the WE network, and Saturday, May 29th at 7:00am on TLC (ET/PT). Special guest DIY expert Holly Germana from Lafarge North America starts off by giving viewers some great tips and suggestions on tackling drywall finishing.
From skim coating and texturing, to concealing cracks and nail holes in the wall, to interior wall finishing, Holly explains how repair can be done from one small pail.
Holly recommends Rapid Coat Low Dust™, a compound for interior gypsum board finishing. “What makes it appealing is it’s specially formulated to reduce airborne dust during sanding. It sands easily and makes less mess for faster clean-up. It is pre-mixed and ready to use right out of the container. It’s also quick drying and there is minimal shrinkage.”
Another benefit to using the Lafarge Rapid Coat Low Dust™ is that you can find it along with all the tools you’ll need at Lowe’s-- right next to the drywall.
Lysa Liemer, Designing Spaces’ Executive VP of Programming and Chief Operating Officer, says, “Having Lafarge North America on ‘Designing Spaces’ once again proves our mission: ‘If you can dream it, you can do it.’
“We are exploring exciting topics and trends to inspire viewers to take on all home improvement challenges and decorating dilemmas, and Lafarge delivered the perfect solution. Educate, empower, and entertain – that’s what we do at ‘Designing Spaces’ and our audience knows we will always bring them solutions to make every space count and to enjoy the space they live in.”
Make sure you tune in to see the Designing Spaces team, along with Holly, walk you through a drywall DIY project showing you first-hand just how easy and affordable it can be.
