Funny you should say that connor..been looking at your resto work for quite a while now ! you like to get involved with a bit of 'gobo' work too ..very impressive.think we were in the same boat at one time,reached 40 and it got to much like hard work :)
still like to keep my hand in ,but on a smaller scale !

O'reight wayne, ay its amazing what you can get involved in after a 5 minute tutorial ..oo er missis !as for the brake fluid V safer stripper i'd say ......F...I G...H...T :)
no seriously.. brake fluid seems easier ,but has to be left to act..sometimes it does'nt touch the paint then i'll use safer stripper.
but saying that brake fluids a cow to get of the dining table ..carpet ..setee..cat
hee hee ;)
