MrMoodz Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 So I fixed up some Tangiers Blue Gum Ball and had some Nour coals on the electric burner. After I few minutes I went to check on the coals... To my surprise, I notice several small chunks sitting on the countertop burning the laminate. I f*cking hate it when coals explode. I am going to start lighting my coals outside again.Anyways, anybody have any ideas on how to cover up a burn hole in laminate?There goes my f*cking security deposit.

Chadkciw Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 try a sealant like a caulk, if all else fails, paint that matches the color of the laminate, i burned my countertop once, a little white paint and Wala! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMoodz Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 I haven't tried anything yet. The laminate looks like fake wood grain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForgetulRobot Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 put your windscreen over your coals while you heat them you silly monkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickReppinThe909 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 windcover like snoopys FTW !!! plus the coals heat up way faster with one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterjmag Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Assuming these are finger coals (not quick-lights), how large are the chunks that you're heating up? I've had a couple of coal chunks explode on the burner, and they were both rather large, so that may have something to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobbed Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 honestly i havent seen a single person get their security deposit back since smoking hookah there unless you want to redo the whole carpet or in your case counter top hopefully you can find a quick fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMoodz Posted June 13, 2008 Author Share Posted June 13, 2008 Yeah, we have some burn holes in the carpet from when Eric and his Tangiers associate was over a year and a half ago. The carpet holes I can work with but the countertop is going to take a miracle. I've already came to the conclusion that my wife and I will not be getting the security deposit back. Do Apartments do marginal reimbursements or is it all or nothing?? I've never seen a windcover used on an electric burner before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldog_916 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Honestly? If you can, smoke outside, jeez. I know its a pain sometimes but you can make it work. If there's big money on the line, such as your security deposit, I would definitely not wanna put that in jeopardy by smoking indoors. If you have a balcony, that's where I would do it, or at the very least, light the coals out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
