Ron has discovered a very rare beast indeed. He tells me that there is a man called Carl, whose local business does metal polishing, chrome and zinc plating and...powder coating all at the same premises! Ron got some motorbike bits polished and said that they were reasonably priced and look good.

So the back of my car is full of buckets of bolts, freshly sandblasted objects for powder coating and my rusty old bumpers.

Let's see just how good Carl the Unicorn is.
