which chassis paint
Tried to order chassis paint, 2 out of stock and 1 seller is "on holiday".
I want to avoid por15 as this is on the chassis of the car and por15 needs a fair bit of preparation work. Which brands are good? 2 Frost chassis paints out of stock and this seller is on holiday https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Premium-PROTEGA-Car-Truck-Chassis-Paint-Black-Semi-Gloss-Satin-1-Litre/172097545855 looking for a litre but not over £30 if I can avoid it I've had a day of not being able to order stuff macafee2 |

Hi,
I don't think the Bilt Hamber range will fit your needs as there is quite a bit of prep but maybe worth a look. https://www.bilthamber.com/corrosion...st-treatments/ Their products are regularly recommended. Post #5 here is interesting reading: https://www.detailingworld.co.uk/for...d.php?t=419309 Good Luck. Andy. |

I have used Under Frame Gloss Block on both my locos as below (everything you see in black):

I am very pleased with it. Available from the manufacturers @ www.trwilliamson.co.uk of Ripon in North Yorkshire. BTW its made to a BR specification so is very good quality. Steve |

Not that little: weighs 49 tons, designed to haul 1120 tons on the level.
Owner since March 1983 when rescued in derelict condition and with a condemned boiler. Currently in full w/o but not in use due to Covid 19. Locked in a nice cosy engine shed with other locomotives. BTW diesel weighs in at 113 tons. Did some more painting of underside of cars yesterday - goes on a treat! |

The Shunter ( 08 773 ), there is one of those still in use at the railway sidings to the North of Eastleigh train station. I saw it in action yesterday evening. I used to work on them as an apprentice ( many years ago ). |
