Love messing with fibre glass, good advice above.
Change gloves frequently your fingers will get stuck together, get the right mix, to give you time to apply.
Cut all your sheets to the sizes you want in advance, saves time and stuff being wasted.
I also have got the tub of ready mix, just add hardener, that works well as an addition.

Buy a decent face mask, I have a proper vented one, makes life better.... you can wear going to the shops if the virus gets close to you :)

Not the postman, but better.

Mr kingfixer dropped off a pair of motorcycle jeans I bought from him. Very nice and very comfortable, just looking forward to some warmer weather so I can try then out.

A Star lighter. I've always wanted a Zippo but they are fairly pricey, found a chinese made lighter that is fairly well known (Star) for a few quid so thought screw it, pick it up. I've been playing about with it ever since!

A SHAD top box rack for the ZX, about to go and fit it with the Givi plate...

Also coming in tomorrow should be a waffle weave glass polishing cloth for the inside of the car's windscreen as I just can't get it properly clean...

To be fair it depends on the quality- norm is a tenner to 40quid but could spend hundreds or thousands for silver or gold plated zippo. Could to be careful though as there are fake Zippos doing the rounds and I wouldn't be happy spending £30 on a fake. I'm happy with the Star one for £4 - even if that is a fake then at least it's still made in China ImageImage

This Star one seems fairly good though.

My mate had a Zippo when we were around 15 or so and when he got it I would borrow it and play constantly with it lol! Hence why 17 years later I've bought one haha

I'm.afarid to say, yes it does have a bit more leather.

The old was a UK SIZE 40 the new is UK SIZE 42. I really do need to do something about my new found wilderness, it's terrible really.

Although it does have a little wiggle room and also I can fit a back and chest protector inside the new one.

The old RST was loose when I first picked it up now however it is very tight and really isnt comfy so I had to order something new
