You can see where I poured the crap I used, I should of just put it in a bucket to mix, never mind. I will go over it again next week, there is a place in Runcorn the sells hypo so that's were I will be on Monday.

Post by: Matt. on March 06, 2015, 08:59:19 pm: Hello rob, it was an evans products, oil remover, just what I had in the van, left white splashes ere there and everywhere, where I had just thrown it down, I brushed it all in right away but I will give it a go over next week.

I can't upload pics on iPhone or ipad or I would show you what I mean.

Post by: Rob@Blast off on March 06, 2015, 09:20:33 pm: Get yourself a watering can makes it much easier to apply chems
As for the hypo just be careful not to get it on your clothes as every piece of work wear I own has got bleaching on.
