1. Neat bleach and I always used Thick bleach
2. Any will do but see above
3. Grease up any alloy parts with a lot of grease
4. Yes i have used the axle kits in the old 80's  plastic hubbed ones (not the sealed plastic ones)
5. errr pass.. i bought a few from ginny's but have now used them all up.

1. Neat bleach but I use the thin bleach - 23p a bottle or something at Tesco.
2. I've only ever used Tesco brand - never had a problem
3. As Del says - athough I use vasaline  :daumenhoch:
4. As Del says.
5. Ginnys are cheaper than anywhere else for axle kits even including shipping from the US  ;)
