@jmanic did you touch up the paint on the wall behind the tank while it was off? I would have had to do that given the opportunity...that stupid shit drives me crazy even though nobody can see it
Nah, we are changing color in there soon.
Ill make sure to half ass it so it’s white, mustard and whatever the new color is.
I’ll send you pics.

Thanks, my wife decided to keep that and I am glad we did.
Dealing with a leaky steam radiator before we can finish the rock

where is it leaking? they rarely fail, but a pain when they do!

At the valve I think. Beyond my expertise in plumbing, waiting on the pro.

if it is the packing of an inlet steam valve, let a pro do it. it gets ugly - i worked on the one in my room at my parents house for a heating year.
and i'm still not sure what i did that actually fixed it.
