Yippee!
PM payment method etc.
Lets make sure they are fully dry before wrapping up and posting, don't want bubble wrap sticking like the one that was sent to the US.
Cheers.

Ok guys, I have all the payments now thank you, I will ship them out tomorrow or Thursday on a next day insured. I have to go buy all sorts of tubes and bubble wrap.

Just picked them up, they are perfect, excellent gloss, just how they should have always been.

Just out of interest, did he pass comment on how hard the job was? "They where a right ***** to get right" or something similar!

He said the finish was sheite, fibres hanging out etc and a complete lack of gel coat.

he did 3 coats and it made no difference, another 3 and it improved and finally after 9 coats got a descent finish.

There is the odd pit mark, but to be honest, I think he has done wonders with them with a good thick deep lustre.

The next issue is sending them to you.

I need 41x4" postal tubes that I have had to order off ebay, so you wont get them till next week I am afraid, but I just dont want to take any chances with them getting damaged in transit.

UPDATE:

The postage tubes have still not turned up and I am off to Le Mans tomorrow so you might not get them till middle of next week....if you were wondering where they are.

Here's a pic to wet the appetite....

Ok, even the shipping tubes I bought (£25) went astray, but I have just had delivery now. I am going to send out today, so expect them tomorrow.

Hopefully mine will be at the post office tomorrow, being working away last few days and returned to the post office collection card.
