David is right... For the cage you don't really need a high temperature paint, but I use the VHT because I have it on hand from other jobs where it's needed, and the one that you bake at 94C seems (and this just might be delusion) to wear better on my 'users'. I'm sure a good quality automotive repair paint would be fine (... but in the workshop these are also baked...) Cheers Tony
Learning more every time I log on! Tony, did you manage to track down that plunger spring? If not can anyone tell me where I can get one online please? I don't even have the old one to be able to just get a generic one unfortunately. And yes, Tony is right, I am a Kiwi but please don't hold that against me! Thanks for your input everyone. Cheers, Ian
