    Is this the right emulsion roller

    Its Leyland Trade Contract emulsion and it actually say's to thin by 10% on porous surfaces. So maybe I have thinned it a little too much. Anyway, I've given the walls a light rub-down and used a short pile roller and the result is very nice :lol: so was it the roller or the mix ratio :? :lol:

    Foolish diesel problem

    Im sure some one will have it off you. If they put a gallons of tainted in their tank and then fill up with good stuff I cant imagine it would do any harm apart from a little smoke ,if any, coming out of the exhaust.

    Foolish diesel problem

    you will have to empty your tank, replace your fuel filter and refill with diesel. Thats what i would do but Im no expert . I know that diesel acts as a lubricant for the fuel (injector) pump and the rubber seals in it dont like petrol so you need to get diesel bask into it asap :wink:

    infrared illuminators and cctv

    This is where I need the advice. What spec do I look for in a wide angle lense ? Althought I want to veiw an area 10mtrs wide, the camera/s would have to be situated about 4mtrs back from the perimeter. So as you say I would probably need more than one camera. Another problem i believe is the...
