Anti corrosion treatments
SP72 replied to Busybee's topic in General Service, Inspections and Maintenance
No idea on what it will do for ally, but works well on steel. Used on all of my ‘barges’ over the past 10 years or so. XCP Rust Blocker is also rated, although I don’t think as long lasting. Again, no idea what it will do for ally. -

Dynax UC is what you want - unsure how clear it is though. Got some somewhere, I thought it was slightly opaque -

Worth adding that Sportwagen, as much as they hate dealing with fibreglass products, thought the set fitted to mine were an excellent fit and needing minimal finessing to fit. Much better than some I have seen.

Escalation is... Aston Martin V12 Vantage

Very much so - just need to decide how dark to go. The wheels are a bit lighter than what my crappy iPhone presents below, but still a fair bit darker than the current chrome. -

Totally agree - the early cars especially are stunning without the later S/V12 sills and aero stuff. See Les, I don’t care what the others say about you, I think you’re alright... -

Got a day booked with Rob on Monday, however finding a 10cm pool of green fluid under the engine did not bode well. PAS fluid level still good - the FB forum suggested an AC leak, with the green being dye added to the gas. Fingers crossed, it’ll be something simple when i take it to HWM on Thursday for a while i wait checkup. Its still under the Timeless warranty, so any works will be covered. The car is going back to HWM next week regardless as AM finally relented, and will treat a spot of ally corrosion on the bonnet under their paint warranty. I will find out tomorrow how much t -
Couldn’t help with my Fuchs - said the alloy was too hard to re shape (!) Will try the place recommended above when I get a chance.

Pre Purchase Inspection needed in Birmingham
SP72 replied to Londonblackcab's topic in Recommend me a specialist
Imagine most builders will quote worst case and budget £5k for pistons and cylinders. 50 hours labour is what BSM quoted me, + 10 hrs for the bottom end. That’s 5-6k just labour @£75/hr -
Unsure if these are still available - could be a better option?

I know this, but the design is very different (if that’s not a generic photo) to Wossner, JE etc
