As i sell some stainless products for another industry it should be noted that the term Stainless Steel is worthless unless the grade of stainless is quoted. Anyone who works with stainless knows this. I had a quick look at SSP and there is no mention of stainless grade.
Very generally bog standard should be at least 304, used for gates etc.. and even that is not much good near the coast. Anything starting with a 2 in the number is akin to furniture grade and is not any good for outside., at least not long term. Then add all the dodgy Chinese Stainless.
If all on needs is a bit of shinny bling as a replacement for Chrome they any old stuff will do.

I sent a top of the range leaking stainless tank back to him under guarantee which he said he never received.Item was insured but not tracked so couldn't prove it. 

Lambrettas are for life!

The tank I bought was excellent and is still going strong years later

I ran a scooter with one of their 13 litre tanks for several years. No issues at all and I only sold it on as the new engine wasn't compatible. A quick wipe and a polish and it looked brand new.onthelam wrote:As i sell some stainless products for another industry it should be noted that the term Stainless Steel is worthless unless the grade of stainless is quoted.
