we have tried all types of surfaces, Pvc pipe, sheet metal , fibreglass, teflon sheeting, plastic coated wood and polyproplene pipe. All have worked just fine but the pick of the lot would be the poly sheeting, its not cheap at around 1000 dollars to cover akicker compared to 100 dollars for the tin _________________ www.wake.com.au |
