Just be careful what you use on stainless wheels.

Luckily it was on the inside of a wheel so I can live with it.
Ever since, I simply wipe down with WD40 !

I've been using Dragons Breath for a couple of years and no sign of any damage, still bright and shiny.

Can you confirm that is actually on stainless wheels please?

Speaking of narrow garages, you must see this (old) youtube video.
You can ad English subtitles.




Problems are there to be solved!

Well not just today but recently made and fitted a scoop to replace a tea tray someone had seen fit to attach by drilling the bonnet and screwing with BA nuts and bolts - some people eh!. Now needs blending properly and painting. Looks better than the previous thoughtless attempt.

Made a pair of headlight support tubes and lugs for a pals pre-war Standard engined 4-4.

Bottom lugs are standard 1 1/4" bumper clamps but the top lug had to be fabricated from 4 separate parts then welded all together and the welds smoothed over with files and emery cloth.

Then into the jig I made when making the ones for my car then brazed them all up.
