  1. Yeah cataloy is the p38 filler, we also have stuff called top stop with is polyester resin which is easier to rub and leaves a better finish for paint. Think it costs a few bob a tin! Use a nice fine paper on the p38 will leave a good enough finish. Good luck with it
  2. Dont they empty our wallets enough?
  3. Mmmm need a plan b then
  4. Surely not!! 70 is way too low in this day and age with the technology in cars today. The driving tests are harder today than what they were when i passed, so hopefully better drivers should be appearing on the roads. They should be looking at raising it a bit.
  5. 120 should be fine it may take a while to rub down though:D I dont think there is anything out there that is really flexable. I work in a bodyshop and we use fibreglass, cataloy or a special bumper repair stuff (cant remember the name just now). That bumper stuff is black and it is like a mixture of cataloy and fibreglass mixed together, even when it dries its still pretty solid. I think the only answer is to avoid the speed humps matey or stock up in repair stuff:d
  6. I have an english pointer who hates being bathed but loves jumping into the loch. Strange
  7. Im in the middle of repairing Aldo87 supra after a slight 'off'.His do luck front bumper was in tatters, ive rebuilt it with fibreglass and p38, i have arms like popeye with rubbing all that filler!
  8. Received today, good work mate and thanks!
  9. Any pics of what you have done so far? I would mesh and fibreglass behind the spoiler to strengthen it.Once dried rough up the outside of spoiler with 80 grit paper,then apply a coat of fibreglass. Rub that down once dry with 80 again till the repair is flat. Then apply a layer of cataloy, rub the rough down with 80 then use finer paper to a smooth finish for primer and paint. The first two are the best, make sure you mix it well so you dont get pinholes!
  10. They can be repaired, but sometimes it isnt a case if just knocking the dent out, ive known wheels to crack when straightened then the wheel needs to be welded. Try and find a wheel repair specialist and ask his advice and quotes.
  11. I have the same exhaust and it sits just like keeners pictures above

  15. Aberdeen is only a couple of hours away from glasgow.I would be a nice drive especially if we went in convoy. Where are you based alanM?
  16. I may be up for this but its a hell of a run for a meet is there nothing in glasgow? We could meet up and go in convoy mate.Hopefully be quite a few from our end heading up.
