They may well be very good, but off shore spec doesn't really mean anything. I use off shore spec paint on nearly everything (international intergard primer and interseal topcoat) and it is very good but there are plenty of not so good off shore paints
you would have to phone and ask them spec , some else does there sand blasting and painting , so does not look that they are trying to do it on the cheap
 
is this any good?

I got side tracked whilst looking at something else!


Will never understand folk wanting machinery painted black. Near invisible in low light, hot to the touch in the sun etc.

They aren't black it's sort of a battleship grey and IMHO smart as a carrot when clean

An alternative option for you Clive


Bingo. Non-tipper so ideal for low sheds

Thanks but all our sheds are 8.5m to eves ! we can tip artics in them all

I've bitten the pill and ordered a new Stewart 20-26 to match what we have already ....... horribly expensive but we know they are really good and it the correct size, and capacity for what we need, 26 m3 is quite a rare thing it seems, given lead times quoted I was beginning to fear re availability for harvest

we keep trailers many years (last ones we sold did over 20 harvests for us). so its. along term investment


still looking for a chaser bin and a tipper truck wet kit, have solved the bag filler and bag lifter now

Really can't justify spending much on the chaser, it's only needed on one contract farm so won't get huge use and with SFI changes who know what the future holds on contract farms ........... I need something where my money is safe if I need out of it really

Have a look on Truckbuy UK on FB for wet kits, they occasionally come up for good money

Perhaps give an idea of what you want to spend makes it easier to search.
