I mentioned the Dulux paint because I also have had good results with it, much better than the enamels I've used. The advantage is it's epoxy, waterproof, not 2 pack and am told can handle a clear coat. It polishes up much better than enamel, or the wattle product I used previously. I originally bought 2 pack auto paint and tried it on some metal because haven't worked with epoxy paints before and found the dulux seemed easier to spray and to my surprise seemed a better finish after 3 coats. So the 2 pack primer and topcoat sit in my workshop unused, may use that on my neighbours Sahara as it needs a paint job.

Bruce, 2000 Nissan Pulsar TI which we bought in 2004. purchased a new after market radiator for $170 and have removed the old one and am waiting for engine to dry after giving it a clean. Quite a simple job really.

Wayne G said he still has to do that so it doesn't get in his way of doing other things .
What ratio of kero to Diesel ? & and how often do you mix the two & with the fuel pump is the fuel outlet the same end as the electrical connection?

Well done Gman. You will have the warmest pussy going when that is finished. I hope Brian appreciates it.
