It's going to look really good, Martyn. What's the final colour going to be green ?

[martyn williams]

Hello John,yes it will be mid brunswick green as it was delivered from the factory.

[martyn williams]

Just an update on the roller project,its just been givern a coat of mid brunswick green.Just the front rolls and a paint touchup on the scraper bars to do.

Hi Martyn, it looks great, do you spray or brush paint ?

[martyn williams]

Hello John
I applied the primer and undercoat with a paint roller,this is then givern a rub down with what can be described as a brillo pad type material.It is then givern three top coats which is sprayed on.All the fiddly bits like cock handles and scrapers are done with a paint brush.I have also been emailed the Milford Haven council coat of arms.This may have to be applied in the form of a decal as it is work of art in itself.I will get a sign writer to line out the roller.

Done a bit more on the roller today, lined out the bonnet,tank and engine covers.My eye sight may be going but my hand is still steady with a paintbrush.

Been teaching the wife how to drive the roller.The Milford Haven UDC crest is being made and will be fitted to the water tank soon.
The canopy will be fitted at the end of the year
