If I eventually get round to doing mine during my lifetime, I was thinking about red leading it first with oxide. You ever done any of that?

I will wait 'till hot summer weather before sealing anything in.

Grind out any rust, convert it with a good rust converter "Kurust" then paint..

Red lead isn't how it used to be with all the Green brigade having it altered

Yes the stuff I used years ago would make you feel ill but did a great job. Can't see the stuff on shelf for £2.99 being same
