Why is the inside of the pump painted in red oxide?

Should be red gloss like the pipe

The cover soon will be. The replacement cover has arrived, the casting is rough so it's been primed ready for gloss.

Covers the filler and chewing gum.

Being a Gardner I at least expected gilding on the inside.

 

Sorted. Rough casting so blinged up with old red Hammerite on their non ferrous primer.

 

Bilge cleaned.

Not into stainless hose clamps then?

 

Being envious, lovely job.

Would have changed all the hoses there is about 7 but they  were not delivered in time. Guess what was in the letterbox when I arrived home...... 2 days late from courier.
