Now you're just being silly, Henry - I wasn't planning to light it; simply use it as a Christmas decoration... :lol: :lol:
Yes, this has worked for me with various recalcitrant Coleman lamps and, I think, stoves... :)
Yorkshire Tea downunder - well I never... :thumbup:
:-k Maybe I'll get a rattle-can of Candy Apple Red next time I'm in Halfrauds. 8] Also, Lidl do some adventurous colours in spray cans prior to...
There's also a brown enamelled one from W&B to go with the brown Vapalux 300. I think I've also seen dark blue enamelled ones (might even have a...
