Yes I will go for 1l next time for that reason too. I have heard back and they said: "Thank you for the photo. No the stock is not old, no more than 3 weeks at most, we only just replenished that size tin from Bonda at the beginning of the month, it had been out of stock for ages at the factory...

DAMMIT! That means I painted without the zinc, and now can't get to the rust surface! It's like dried chewing gum, no idea how to shift it. The clumps don't mix back in. I am speaking to the company to check batch numbers. I have one of those drill stirring attachments but it's huge, wont fit in...

Well I got my bonda primer. Nobody told me it's the colour of Tango :D Amazing stuff as many have said above. Bonds brilliantly. I hammered and scrubbed off all loose rust then painted on. boy it goes a long way too which is good at fifteen squid a tin! Can see me using a lot of this. I have a...

Thanks. Yep, I did think about a tiny spot weld of bolt head to wheel frame, just to belt and braces it :D

The hubs don't have studs, just holes for the wheel bolts

That's interesting thanks. So proper wheels fitted properly with the original nuts should be ok you think? (in theory)

Lack of MY use is all I can speak to :D

Had a bit of a disaster yesterday. I had to go just a few miles to collect a shed on trailer. Trailer is very old farm trailer but not totally rotten, been in use for years. It had a leaky wheel so I put another wheel on which didn't QUITE fit snug, so i put 4 washers behind the wheel (between...

Sounds bloody fantastic! What I have been hoping for for years! Just got myself a pot, look forward to trying it. I will try it on my wife's sex toy drawer lock. (if only she had one :D)

Thanks, when you say finishing off the rust, do you mean mechanically, or chemically with something like Jenolite?

PS it looks like you can apply direct to rust surfaces as well as clean metal. I just bought myself the dynax stuff for treating Disco2 chassis, wondering if this would have been better!

Brilliant stuff thanks. I have various needs, but the main current one is just protecting the weld from exposed environment. Yesterday I ground off rust ready to weld, the misses said dinner's ready so I ran to gobble my pie and veg which took about 20 minutes with a few drop of rain happening...

I am new to welding and metalwork in general. Doing some work on trailer and wondering what's best to protect the exposed steel and weld bead? I have a few cans of cold galvanised spray which someone suggested but wondering if some of the proper mechanical folks in here have any advice?

I was tempted to use sticks like ****, but maybe that will be too much work to get off (acetone maybe) if i ever do the job properly. PS what are "roof bar gaskets"?

Good stuff, thanks

Norratall! Never like to interrupt someone having quality time, especially in this new age where fun is a sin :D That's useful info. So I can actually take a look fairly easily, and maybe test. I can probably take that on, but removing the headlining etc is just too big a job for now. If i keep...

Ha, my friend's Disco ceiling has been done with Homebase magnolia emulsion! Looks bloody horrible but almost fall for it from a distance!! I have a fairly good headlining so I would just like to keep it that way as long as possible, so I will try some evostik contact adhesive, good shout thanks

Christ almighty! That's beyond me for now, probably for ever. I think I will just have to stick the cloth back up, any recommendations for a glue which will do the trick? I think I will have to sadly seal my sunroofs which is a shame. :(

I really don't fancy ripping it out, but looks like it will eventually need doing. trying to find a bloody minute for anything lately is a nightmare, but this looks a fiddly basterd of a job! I will have to look for some guides, hopefully there are some, or videos on screwtube

Thanks, but I think it would take a long time to see any water inside, as there is no visible leak, it looks like moisture/water build up which eventually dripped, so i dont think I can easily spray and check!
