Hi all, my first post here.
I'm doing a reno on my 1942 home unit. It has an over anbundance of wall vents,having 8 just in the living room. To my mind, thats 8 too many !
They get dirty, allow noise in from the street and are a gateway to my home for Huntsman spiders. The last one got stuck in one of the cubes of the grill, being too fat to get thru. I helped it out by useing two cotton buds.
So to my question. Whats the best way to cover these vents prior to painting ? They are recessed maybe 1 to 2 mm from the surface of the wall. I'm thinking afixing a plate of some material or cement rendering.
