Don't know if this will help you guys. However i repair a lot of GRP damaged items and when the GRP gets damaged it results in crazing= lots of minute cracks everywhere. They can't be filled successfully until the cracks are raked out and made bigger, thus allowing a good thick layer of filler...

Chuck them in the washing machine..Not the handle though.

Thanks Eddie M. Lesson learnt mate,..lol

I am referring to that yellow loft insulation. I have spent the day tearing it apart and stuffing it in between the roof joists after boarding the loft out. I KNOW, I KNOW, i should have worn protective clothing and a mask, BUT i never and now i have a terrific chesty cough and feel like a...

Thanks everyone, also nice to read the funny stuff :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just been doing a few jobs up in the loft and found a few sheets of Asbestos, so broke them up into smaller pieces put them in a bin liner and took them to the dump, guess what, i got told that they could not accept it, hence, i returned home still complete with the bags. Any ideas how i am...

All good valid points on this issue, however, have been though all of these and double checked them without any luck. Had a word with Ford and guess what they said, THERE ALL LIKE THAT. Now i guess a statement like this from Fords could well have been expected. I wounder if they tell their new...

Hi everyone. Just had a load of shrubs delivered for a new garden project and i am nowhere ready to plant them out. Can you advise me on the best way to keep them alive until i am ready. Should i remove the package from the roots. Many thanks in advance for any info.

Hi Powertool. No mate, it has the normal visco fan.

:D Problem cured chaps.

Many thanks quick-fit. I THINK i may have located the problem to the Alternator shortening out to earth. This was causing the battery to discharge even when the engine was running. Also the short was creating havoc with all the other electrical components, hence nothing was working properly...

Hi Breezer. Thanks for the feedback. Have tested the Matrix, the water flow is very good. Actually everything works OK, but just takes about 15 miles to reach normal temp. Think i might fit a radiator blind.

I have this same problem on my old diesel Transit van, it takes miles to get it hot. Tried new thermostat, NO JOY. Was told it was a blocked radiator, so replaced it, NO JOY. Once the engine reaches normal temp it's ok and will maintain normal temp forever, as long as the engine revs are...

HELP. I have had my old Nissen Primera 1.6 injection for years and never had a spot of bother with it, until now. Took it out shoping on Monday, everything was normal. Parked up on the superstore car park. About an hour later, returned to the car, and it would not start. Almost run the...

I am in Suffolk, Ipswich area.

Thanks chaps for the feedback. Any other ideas for making a table top?

:) Hi everyone, new to this site, and have a question. In my back garden i have a tree stump about 26" high and 48" dia. I would like to turn it into a garden table. What i need is a largish piece of tree trunk about 3" thick, cut off a much larger dia tree, to create the table top. I...
