    I'd go for the Halfords proffesional. Cheaper than the equivalents such as snapon. I've abused my set of Halford's kit for many years.

     

    And Having snapped 3 1/2" breaker bars (only the head of them)just walked in changed breaker bar and walked out (they do inspect them for impact damage but not for jumping on the end of them, Shhhhhhhhhhh mum's the word)

    Passport question...

    Do they still have a border post going into England ?

     

    Anyway drove from home to Wroclaw (Poland ) and Showed my passport once ,on re-entry into Hull .

    They were on a major search for something as everyone was being made to open boots ,caravans, bus holds etc

     

    Pretty scary that you can cross most of Europe and not get checked once not even in hotels did they want to see passports just you visa card

    Semi gloss and matt paint

    I would have thought that there would be a recipe for the paint and would be easy to do Dulux ,Crown,Leyland paint centers mix all differnt types of paint daily , on a job i got Gloss ,Masonry and interior emilsion mixed to the same shade for the customer without any differnce in tone and this was for a shop front .

     

    Bronze Green is also in the BS 318C (British Standard) colour range so the colour should be the same whichever paint factor supplies or mixes it.

     

     

     

    Go with the same supplier like Marcus Glen etc and the paint should match

    any reason why we cant use dulux paint metal paint
