    Faded magura yellow, is there a cure?

    Re: As you probably know the UV knackers Yellow and Red solid colours, flouro paints especially, so try a proper cutting compound on a pad or microfibre cloth or worst case elbow grease and T-Cut with a cotton rag. T-Cut is a very very light cutting compound and requires a fair amount of...

    Oh Hermes, you suck!

    Re: I've never had a failure with Hermes but only tend to use them for small items to business addresses, Royal Mail occasionally lose an item for 3 weeks then it turns up but consistently reliable experienced no theft.

    Decent v-brake pad inserts?

    Re: Ref those blue Ritchey pads, they are made by Fibrax but the blue compound is super soft and aimed at low power brakes or wet use, the upshot is very good stopping power but highish wear rates. They are so cheap though its worth burning through a few sets.

    Discovery channels being dropped by Sky.

    mazda 6, anyone owned or own one?

    The 6 is ok but will rust, metal is poorly treated and you'll get bullied on the road driving it. All modern(ish) diesels are shite, get a petrol.

    Bona fide RAL powder codes for 1990-1994 Yo Eddys?

    You don't get high VOC Dupont Imron for this application any-more, although it's still available for marine use in a limited palette. But you can get any colour mixed, you'd be better off with a Pantone book or send a small piece of flaked paint to a bodyshop to match up on their product range.
