Thanks. Simple enough if i can keep the w8fe from crunching up the half empty cerial box in the cupbourd now. Ha.

And BTW, Thanks for finding it Roy.

i've got two questions about these products;

as far as i searched on web, it's impossible to find these compounds in europe ? from caswell UK they are out of stock since 3 months (maybe more) and they don't know if they will have them. do you have any ressource to buy them from europe ? a command from US will coast me too high with fees.

the other question is; how should i keep them ? since i had one and used it few weeks ago, i took it today to work on again but the part i opened to use last time was too hard (i kept the nylon on compound) i had to cut few cm's to make it melt on the wheel.


thanks by advance guys

Hi oust hey i cant help ya with the europe ? but on the drying out You can put them in a ziploc bag to keep the air out or put them in a closed container with a wet rag, you can go back in this thread and i believe it was explained to jerry several different options, Hope this helps a little bit, Ty

Well mate, while I'm in the States, my ancestors were English, Irish, Welsh and Scot so I hope that at least brings me in as a very distant cousin.

I hope this link is of some help. I would think that they would sell the same quality in the UK as they do here in the states.
