<{POST_SNAPBACK}>They are also relatively easy to apply but as I said, I need to be specific to advise properly and as I've been asked not to specify specifc product details on list... I'd have to be by PM or direct email only.
That's a ridiculous rule! Is this a general rule or a "let's muzzle Richard Johnson" rule? How does John Webb get away with promoting Heathcote or Kent Panel Controls in his reply?
I can understand rules prohibiting unsolicited promotion of products (isn't there a specific forum for commercial announcements?), but in response to a specific question for assistance, you should be able to point out which brands/models are suitable to solve a problem, otherwise how do we learn anything? If there's a viable alternative then someone will surely post about it.
If you have a vested interest in what you are posting on then simply make that clear and allow readers to make their own judgement on the impartiality of your post.
