Thanks baz1946, very helpful I have now found it on the Aki site and know what to look for the next time I am in Spain.

hi briando55, I have rubbed down the wood and used some thinners to take off the varnish, so a water based should be fine, however I think I will use some oil based undercoat if I can find it.

thanks both for your help.

Hi,

I have some doors which are currently a varnished mahogany veneer and want to paint them with white gloss.  Getting the gloss is not a problem but I cannot find any undercoat in Aki or Leroy Merlin, I have gone through their websites using Google translate with no luck.

can anyone help please and let me know what the Spanish name is for the undercoat?  Again I have used all of the Google suggestions but nothing comes up.

thanks

Goldcar at Malaga airport seems straightforward, no hard sell but as others have said there is a excess held on your credi card.  Full/Full petrol where you are charged for a full tank at the beginning of the hire but this is refunded if you return with a full tank.

only thing I don't like is that when I picked the car up and refused the excess insurance, I was told I was not covered for breakdown, when I said but it's your car and if it breaks down it must be your responsibility, it was answered with a shrug of the shoulders and a repeat of "not covered for breakdown".

so with this, I am assuming I still ring their breakdown number, but have to pay the cost of a call out myself, does anyone know anything different?
