    Hey Jeff..... You always do such a great job in such a confined space.....no bike ramp and no special tooling..... if you had the space you would be churning out top class restorations every other week...... well done Sir!

      Hi Adam, I have two problems, space and limited time. I haven't had a chance to get anything done this week, due to work. I like to get a few things prepared for the day I film. Unfortunately the wife is off for a month and before I get chance to sit down in the shed for 2 minutes, I can hear the name Jeff calling from indoors.
      I have told her to have a rest as I will have to help her when I'm on holiday next week. Hopefully she will stay round her friends on Monday when I'm off.
      Take care, Jeff

      Thanks very much Martin. The inspection is a bit of a pain, but at least it will be better once finished.
      Not looking forward to doing the keys, but at least I have three spares if I mess it up.
      Take care, Jeff

      Hi Phil and thank you very much. My biggest problem at the moment is time. Just on the last day of working six. I have three days off from Monday, unfortunately the wife has got decorating lined up for me. I have asked her to leave me alone tomorrow though.
      Take care, Jeff

      Hi Shaun and thank you. Once again time is my enemy at the moment. One more day to go and I am off for three days. Unfortunately the wife is off from work for a month and she has a load of decorating for me to do. I am hoping she will give me a break on Monday to get some filming done.
      I have you are well.
      Take care, Jeff

    Hi Jeff. Great job on polishing up the crank Arms. Do you apply a lacquer after polishing to stop any corrosion in the future or should the polished surface last? Thanks.

    • @DiecastPowderCoating
      @DiecastPowderCoating  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Martin, usually with polishing nuts and bolts and things like the pedal cranks I put a thin coating of ACF 50 on. If I try and polish chrome then I would generally put a coating of lacquer.
      Take care, Jeff

      Good shout Jeff. I use ACF50 on my Motorcycle. Brilliant stuff. Great Videos BTW. 😊
