Assessment requirements

In Assignment 1, you provided descriptions of the coating products you used in the practical demonstrations. For each of these products, provide the following information:

  1. Name the type of floor and species of timber that the coating product applied to. (That is, was it blackbutt strip flooring, tallowwood parquetry flooring, cork tiles, etc?)

  2. Describe two possible problems that this floor and coating system combination would be susceptible to. (That is, what sorts of things could go wrong if you weren't careful?)

  3. Explain how you minimised the risk of these potential problems occurring. (What did you look out for, what techniques did you use, or what were you careful to avoid?)
