An Epic Spring Clean

From the creator

Work is under way to restore around tens of thousands of ornate floor tiles to their former glory at Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin. A shellac finish was applied to the tiles as a protective layer several years ago. However, the finish has not stood the test of the time and many of the tiles have become discoloured. It means the shellac now needs to be scraped away by hand - tile by tile. #Tiles #Ireland #Cathedral #Cleaning Keep up to date with all the latest Irish and international news and current affairs with http://www.rte.ie/news Follow us on twitter @rtenews and on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/rtenews
