    It depends on what you want doing and condition of the paint.[/quote]Mainly a bit of paint correction e.g some swirls etc. They aren't excessively bad, just needs sprucing up.

    Yep, that's not a problem. Paint is currently clean and in good nick - but probably due a clay again now that winter's out the way.

    Use tardis first as it gets rid of the tar...saves ruining the clay. Off on my hols on Saturday for 2 weeks but after that is OK. It shouldn't take too long if you can tape up and buff off and help with the last stage protection coats.

    Okay doke, cheers - I'm happy to get stuck in. Only problem being is that in two weeks, when you're back, Mrs Duncan will be literally a week, or less, from dropping Junior into this world - so probably something for some time in May maybe. I think she may get a bit if I bu**ered off to Surrey for the day in a fortnights time!

    Sure no worries, I am in Vegas the last week in May but rest is good. You have got the wet the babies head with the boys.

    OK if I come along too - don't mind getting my hands dirty (clean). I've got most of the materials - not the skill!!!

    When I am back from hols we will sort something out. I have tons of stuff too collected over the years.

    My friend use to have a valleting business a few years ago and I helped out on saturday's. The cash was handy as I was at college at the time, I did that for a couple of years. I don't know it all and I am always open to new products and methods etc.
