    the ministry used to store them in a place not far from me and they drove them round the compound once a week to prevent them from getting bits seized and the oil and fluids circulating including the diffs so if its been stood for a few years be careful

    just got our new y/p delivered today looking through the appropriate sections no one local, it is possible it will be the last time i look at it till the next one comes. i think it will be a waste of money to advertise with them unless you are prepared to travel 20 miles to give a quote and not get the job

    i have used a earlex but the over heat used to cut in after a coupple of panels. i have used a 8lt pump sprayer with good results but had to thin the normal water based fence paint down by half which makes it into the sprayable paint that you pay twice the price for. you might have to give it two coats depending how long ago it was painted. just use a flat peace of cardboard for the over spray. make shore you give the sprayer a good clean after use
