The best ive ever used, i buy the bottle version rather than the areosole*, then as you see i pure about quarter* of a jar full put all ya bits in plastic or metal, but i tend to do all metal parts, screws, drive shaft, bearings e.t.c together and then do all the plastic bits in another one and shake it. Then you sive* out all the liquid(into another jar you can reuse it a couple of times) then fill the jar up about a quater* of hot water and shake it again for a lil while then sive* out the water and dry your parts, what i do then if im not going to rebuild straight away is put all your bits you have just done in another jar or plastic bag and if there metal put a small amount of oil in there to prevent rust. Its a really good way to clean small parts quickly. Its called gunk and 1litre cost about £5.

i'm pretty sure the 'flourine' coated TRF's are yellow/gold, i have the blue ones though, i actually prefer the former now!

Awesome to see it coming back together!

How much do you have invested in parts right now? Looks really nice with the upgraded bottom chassis plate.

Thanks, these pictures are from the last couple of days, ive just uploaded them all at once. Total amount spent on this would be around £70-80. The FRP Chassis set cost me £35 and a couple of spare part bags, and the rest were just bits and pieces.
