meaning that i must have done well on other threads .so will take that
as a compliment ...thank you .
aha ...the infamous tony morgan or rhyl-on-line ... strikes again .
haven't you got a good word for anyone
and why hide behind a disguise .
the outlawed info passed on to me by a painter friend ...
the stuff is not liked by car sprayers ..
yes you can still get the stuff .....but not as readily available as
it used to be . .
all the best.......mark

Well one out of five is not bad.
I'm not sure if you have been correct in any other thread so can't
comment but considering your comments in this thread I'm not holding
much hope...
I'm not Tony Morgan (what ever did happen to him, he just vanished one
day - mid discussion IIRC)...
I'm not in disguise, I've been posting as the same person for the last
9 years (spam traps don't count), and where I have changes 'username'
to it's been clearly flagged...
Nothing has been 'outlawed' (I can't think of a single product that
has been banned, no wait, - there are two that come to mind - Carbon
tetra-chloride (sp?) based brake cleaner and solvent based paint), I
suspect that what your 'friend' meant was that any product that
contains silicon has been 'outlawed' from the paint-shop that he works
in (as it will have been in any paint-shop)...
Agreed, auto-painter sprayers don't like silicon, wow you got that one
right!
Wrong, many auto' products that contain silicon are still available
off the shelf in Halfords etc. - even the mentioned "Back to Black" -
even worse are those 'Colour-back' and 'Glass shine' silicon sealers
(waxes) for car paint work...

Heres one you may not know about ,Lanolin its very good at protecting
against
rust good for timber also some say for the skin but experience
has shown me at
least one who was alergic to it , the old mixture of
steam cylinder oil mixed
with a little kero is a good long term
protector.

And another little known fact: historically the major source of
lanolin was the sewers of Bradford, where the wool trade would wash
wool and the wool lanolin would be in the wash water. Does Bradford
still have a wool trade or have we lost that as well as everything
else?

Did you also know that the Esholt (Bradford) sewage works, a very
large site, had (has?) its own railway system and had at least one but
ISTR two steam locos which were fired on recovered 'wool grease'?

If the peoples of third world countries can use camel dung as a cooking
fuel, is there any reason why the human equivalent can't be used to fire
those locos in the sewage works? The fuel would be free but I can't say I
fancy being a stoker there.
