Hello everyone,

I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask. If this post is not appropriate, please feel free to delete it. I’m not very skilled at DIY and don’t have much experience, so I thought I’d ask here. It’s about the bathroom, where a few issues need to be fixed. First, it’s about the toilet flush. Part of the flush button panel is broken, and then the entire cover was removed, which has been like that for quite some time. I’ve already looked online for replacement parts, but unfortunately, I don’t know the brand of this cover because there is no label on it. How can I replace it? Next, it looks like mold has developed in the shower. What can I do about that? Finally, the paint is peeling off the radiator. What kind of paint do I need if I want to repaint it?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards

1) Lid.... No idea.
2) Towel radiator... It might help to remove the loose paint, sand it down, and repaint it with radiator paint. Whether it needs a primer should be answered by a professional painter. It probably won’t look as good as new, but it will look better than it does now.

3) Mold. There are two things you should consider. You asked how to get rid of it, which is the right question. But wouldn’t you rather know how to prevent it from coming back?

Removing it is quite straightforward... Take out the grout, clean thoroughly, and apply new grout.

Then you should assess whether your ventilation habits after showering are correct. Is there a window in the bathroom? An exhaust fan? Is the shower curtain or glass/plastic door open or closed? Is the bathroom door open or closed?

Hello

The Up flush tank should be from Schwab.

Toxi has already covered everything else worth mentioning.
