I vaguely remember ppl being against that as vaseline will affect some hoses, not sure if that was for plain rubber or silicone, I think the latter!
can someone confirm?

first degrease and vacuum out. Couple of more goes should do it.

I need to secure a float switch….I know….I’ll put a bit of ferrous metal in the bilge and cable tie it. That’ll do??? I’ll also just use crimp connectors and leave them lying in the bilge. I also won’t crimp them properly so them come apart. 12v and bilge water go well together?

Not more NHS gloves.

Bought it from Volvo. He’s got the old one still if you want to get it rebuilt (if yours is too far gone)

You cant rebuild them. One of mine the main bearing is leaking so on the way out. If his has a good main bearing and it's something else that has gone I am happy to buy the shell off him.

I’ll give you his number ?

Forum opinion time. Strips are going to 2 different colours of grey……do I do the radar arch solid grey? White insert panels inside. The black plastic louvres can go the same grey

 

[Bouba]

This one is, supposedly, worth $20 million....so I would paint it the same color

 

[Seastoke]

You would have to change the covers, but personally I don’t like grey arch try black

 

[andy59]

Black arch for me as well, would give more definition.

 

[Greg2]

+1 for the black arch. I don’t think the grey would look so good.

 

[Seastoke]

1-0 to Seacock

Getting a dark grey cover.

thanks all…..I’ll probably go the same grey as I did on breaking point for the larger strip/ arch. It’s very dark but greys up in the sun. I can handle doing an arch ?? think I’ve got some left ??

 

[Mr Googler]

not so sure now. Maybe both strips the same colour and not do the whole arch

I'm surprised you didnt advocate carbon fibre vinyl wrap
