Hi,
Thanks Lawrence. Doesn't black plastic turn grey with age and weathering? Our brown guttering and pipes have turned grey where fully exposed to the front of the bungalow.
One thing I should have mentioned yesterday was my working conditions. I used UPOL pads to rub down the waste pipes and handrails but as the Sikkens was peeling in places on the cladding to the front of the bungalow I thought I would cut some pieces of abrasive paper whilst in the garage to save me running around too much just in case they were needed.
As I knelt down on the deck I placed the abrasive paper in a neat pile on the deck and was about to start rubbing the cladding with a UPOL pad when the paper disappeared like confetti into our side garden. Gathering up the paper I placed an engineering brick on top of the stack. It was blowing a gale up the valley and as usual in mid summer I was wrapped up well wearing a coat.
When I had finished painting it then rained; not a lot but enough to wind up the big key in my back; it never ever fails because every time I paint outside down comes the rain; it had been dry all day up to this point.
I've got three compressors and a range of spray guns; perhaps I should sell the lot then the sun might come out and stay out also if I bought a kite then I wouldn't inflict gale force winds onto my neighbours?
Today's weather forecast is poor so all is normal.
Kind regards, Col.
