  1. I have a pair of Murray winches for sale also...next size down from these ones but the same otherwise. Base dia is about 100 mm. Unfortunately for any potential buyers I wont be letting them go at scrape value like this nice guy did as I paid a hellava lot more than that for them about ten years ago. Best to contact me at 0226415245 if interested. Tx works best and then I can get back.
  2. Appreciate your input but its a pity you havent been taking in what I am saying...I was aware of all the points you made and did everything according 'to plan' as I always do.And my approach to the company concerned was very aimable and who said I threatened legal action? Seems like maybe you should get a job with Wet & Forget if you think their approach is sound business practice.........or maybe you already do work there...possibly in a senior position.....lets let other decide that point!
  3. Who knows.....but couldnt find any chinese writting on the can!!!
  4. Thought I could trust the guy that developed the product and as I said I am not a newbie to using antifouling paint and in fact in this application I took the build up of old stuff right back which I do every few years, and as I understand it Ablative is somewhere in between soft and hard so apples should stick to apples. But I dont really think it was a reaction between the two different paints as the Warpaint also didnt adhere to the areas where the old paint had been taken right back to the white undercoat. It was the way the Warpaint 'erupted' that I am curious about . Still surprises me
  5. Ha ha....when I suggested that on the phone to the manager of Wet and Forget he told me he would sue me then ranted for a while before cutting the call and hanging up........not a nice company.........I thought at the least a refund on the purchase price might have been a nice gesture.
  6. Yes I agree........but one helluva job. Certainly wouldnt use Warpaint again after getting treated like an idiot when I asked them for their comments on what may have caused the problems. They did repeat that Warpaint is perfectly compatable with No5 and that was about the extent of their involvement . Basically they blamed me even though I have been boatbuilding and applying anti fouling for over 60 years without problems....20 years of which involved professionally applying anti fouling. I know things go wrong for various reasons but my main disappointment was in Wet & Forget's att
  7. Just wondering if anyone else has had problems with Warpaint. I recently applied it strictly 'by the rule book' over Altex no 5 after getting approval the two were totally compatable. However a few months down the track the Warpaint began to 'explode' and part company from the substrate. This happened in patches all over the bottom even where prep sanding had gone back to the original undercoat ( glass, over wood). Of course I contacted the manufacturers, Wet & Forget, but didnt get any satisfactory response except that the old antifouling was too thick. This was judged by a few phone
