      Cheers Andy. A bit of a nightmare as it was a pretty comprehensive soaking, and my workshop and its contents are a write off too.

      All they need to do is fit some prototypical condensing gear to the new build F5 when it appears, and condense while within station limits. Everyone's happy.

      I personally prefer Bar Keeper's Friend and Viakal etched brass cleaners for domestic purposes. No gritty bits to get lodged in inaccessible corners of the sink.
