If this continues unchecked over a long period of time then not only will it cause staining and discolouration but also you run the risk that acid from the mould itself could start etching into the stone's surface which would weaken it. \r\rMould is usually present in dark patches that look like discolouration.\r\rIf you want to clean the mould and algae from your sandstone paving then the first step is to ensure that your sandstone tiles are not regularly getting wet and damp underneath. Sandstone has a porous nature, and a permeable sandstone patio surface will allow water to drain through easily and can help prevent moisture problems, as well as helping to avoid problems such as black mould which loves a high level of moisture. You may also find that there is a risk of some sandstone tiles lifting if the earth beneath them stays constantly wet over a long period of time. If tiles are lifting from the ground, touch the bottom of the pavers or the earth below to see if it is damp or wet.\r\rClean off any loose debris like leaf litter and other vegetation on sandstone pavers before starting work on cleaning the mould and algae - do this with just water and a soft brush. Using harsher chemical is a good way to damage the surface of your sandstone paving.\r\rThe next step in cleaning black mould is to scrub it clean with a dilute solution of vinegar or soda crystals - this solution will kill off much of the mould, leaving just discolouration on areas where there has been a lot of growth. To do so, mix equal parts of vinegar/soda crystals with water. If it's not effective you can add another part of vinegar to the mixture. Keep adding one part vinegar and testing until you're satisfied with the solution.\r\rOnce you have rubbed off any remaining patches or areas of mould and algae clean, wipe away any remaining solution with a mop, soft cloth, or towel. You should be able to make out faint outlines where the damage was done - these are usually quite dark and greasy looking because they are stained by dirt rather than being discoloured limestone itself. If you cannot clean such a stain completely then using a penetrating sealer to seal it in. These types of sealers might reduce stain visibility over time. Additionally, the sealer will also help protect your sandstone from other types of damage, and increase the longevity of the sandstone.

Sometimes, while ensuring that the initial colour on the wall is covered perfectly, a coat may end up becoming thick and as a result, takes a longer time than usual to dry. \r\rWhen painting, at least two coats of paint is recommended for better results. Reasons are; a coat on a wall is just like a sketch on paper i.e uncompleted, not full, or solid. Oftentimes, to get the colour you want, you have to apply 2 - 3 coats of pains. There are two reasons to stick to this recommendation. \r\rDurability: paints with 2 or more coats last longer than a single coat painting. Generally speaking, a new home with 2 or more coat painting lasts +10 years while a coat painting barely lasts 4 years before it starts fading or looking rough. \r\rMaintenance: The most time-consuming and tedious period is when applying the first coat.

Once this is done, try turning on your circuit breaker again by flipping it up before connecting all of your appliances together. \r\rIf your breaker trips when you're turning on the power - it means that there is a problem with your circuit and it will need to be fixed before you can use any of the appliances connected to this circuit.

Now connect all 4 points to form an accurate circle that fits that specific part of your hinge. You can then use a chisel or other tool that can cut into wood and create a nice round shape inside that cavity.
