    Hi Mark,

    I used a hi-bonding semi gloss. I go out in the garage, find it and post the name.

    Got my wheels from Harvey about a month ago (obviously not knowing what was coming ) and put on my new N spec CN36's to match the original CN36 spare and took it for a ride...

    Got my car out of Covid lock down for the first time since March. Reconnected the batteries, checked tire pressures (down a bit) started it up (It started almost immediately). Not one drip of oil underneath it

    Took it out to put some more air in the tires, clean the dust off the glass, and give it a small drive (cant go more than 5 kms still) to make sure everything is working OK. Put a bit of fresh fuel in it (last time I put fuel in it was in January ) and the put it back to its storage for the next week or so.
