    A bit late notice but if everyone can bring a UHF, that'd make it easier for us all to stay in contact during the cruise

    Well you could always do some actual farming, but I guess that goes against your work ethic

    I can do all that for you, BUT it sounds like it's the sort of Zed that needs to be taken back to bare metal to see what all the issues are. How big is your budget for rust repairs?

    I suggest you take up Golf instead of cars. It'll be safer for you.

    So I finally got around to painting the floor this weekend in SikaFloor "Stone Grey". Two coats were applied - one on Sat. & one on Sun. The result came up 'OK', but If I was to do it again I'd be a little more carefull with the application process... For whose who may do this in the future, this is what I did: The concrete was troweld off smooth (but not too smooth) when it was laid down. 6 weeks later (giving it time to cure) I had it ground to take the high spots off & to open the pours of the concrete up more. A week later I acid eched the concrete with a 4:1 mix of Water & Hydrocloric Acid, then blasting it off with a pressure cleaner to nutrilize the acid.* I then repeated this step twice more giving a solid week of drying time between etchings. The paint was then laid down over the weekend with a lambswool rollar. *(interestingly the first time I did this a LOT of brown 'muck' was ejected from the concrete, but decreased over the last two etchings...) Two final jobs to do are finish hooking up the guttering downpipes & pumping expanding foam in-between the slab & the wall sheeting to stop the ingress of pests (like Salty). And that is the end of this story! I hope everyone gets a few ideas from my build - so any questions & comments are welcome Cheers!
