Jim Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 Just spilt Thinners on one of Small Fry's windows. Made a right mess. At 40 odd quid + 15 p&p for a new one, I might take a butchers at this stuff. Thanks Graham. Jim Quote
Jim Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 Just had a look. Well worth spending the money for a big expensive window. I'll just try to buy some Polycarbonate locally. Anyone know where ? Jim Quote
Gazza Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 Jim, try a search on Lexan Margard ebay +google. also on here somewhere.....good strong stuff......i think it's used on bus shelters etc. You get what you pay for!! Gary Quote
gjb Posted July 12, 2009 Author Report Posted July 12, 2009 Well i can only speak as i find it did what it said on the box. If it had done half as good as it did i would have been pleased so now im very very pleased and for Quote
wrigler Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 I had a couple of nasty marks on my merry fishers windows caused by contact by contact of rod ends when packing gear away .Unfortunately I can't remember the name of firm I was sent to apart from it very near Alder rd recreation ground. He supplied me with a very fine sheet of wet & dry to rub the scratches and a small jar of polishing compound . It worked a treat. Scratches gone The interesting thing he did say was if I didn't have the polishing compound brasso liquid (not pads) would do the same job. Quote
Maverick Martin Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 If your going to replace the screen and it's not curved then why not think about toughened glass. That would end the problem of scratches caused by wiper blades Martin Quote
great white Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 wrigler I believe that company is called Precision Plastics. Quote
Jim Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 Thanks to you all. I keep looking on the net. What a pullava ! I think I'll try to polish it out as a first option. - - - - - Then I'll buy a new one. Quote
Gazza Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 Graham, did not realise your windows are poly.....thought they where glass , Jim's and mine are Poly , hence the get what you pay for I think Martins got the right idea for Jim Gary Quote
gjb Posted July 12, 2009 Author Report Posted July 12, 2009 yes i know they are poly but they are great big curved ones too much dosh to replace i was only trying to help anyone with the same problem as myself Quote
Adam F Posted July 12, 2009 Report Posted July 12, 2009 (edited) Jim, Have a chat with me at the next meeting about replacing Warrior windows. You can polish them to a degree - but the better option is Lexan Marguard - it is better than glass. Gordon Moore saw mine and did his straight away. I did both Blue Warrior my 165 and Out of the Blue my 175. The stiff Warrior fit is sh%te. This stuff doesnt scratch either. They make riot shields out of it! There is quite a long thread on here somewhere if you search around. Adam Edited July 12, 2009 by Adam F Quote
Jim Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 Thanks Adam, Gazza said to look at that stuff but I can't find it anywhere. I'll try again. Jim Quote
Adam F Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 This is the guy I have bought from in the past: http://feedback.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?V...tab=AllFeedback Quote
Jim Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 Thanks again. They do 1000mm x 500mm sheet Just the Job. Quote
