“Project friendly” formats.


To assist in simple home renovations, such as repairing and painting walls or trimming the ceiling and tight spots, there are two new books, “Complete Interior Paint Kit For Dummies” and “Trim & Tight Spots Paint Kit For Dummies.” These books combine tools with simple “project friendly” formats.

“Wall & Ceiling Repair Kit For Dummies” has poster-style instructions that attach to walls next to repairs-in-progress with low tack, self-adhesive mounts. The instructions organize surface damage into color-coded categories. Users simply diagnosis their problem and follow color-coded, photographic steps to make complete and professional repairs.

Each kit includes, along with a complete selection of great quality tools, laminated flip cards that “step” the novice painter through the painting process from prep through clean-up.

    Dear Editor and Readers,

    I work for Welco Manufacturing and helped to develop these products. For the record, they are NOT publications. They are tool and repair materials kits with innovative formats for on-the-job instructions.

    Welco licenses the right to apply the world-famous For Dummies brand name to our kits, in order to emphasize to prospective purchasers that the assistance provided is clear, easy-to-implement, and designed for success -- just like the For Dummies books.

    However, to reiterate, they are true repair and decorating KITS, not books.

    Thanks for this opportunity to clarify.
