<P>Hey Snoc you sound like Tedd Bullpitt, you forgot to add on to the end"and I'm king of the castle".</P> <P>I will tell you now, i would be very surprised if anything my mate Jack said was too far off the mark.</P> <P>It is possible for a metal surface to appear quite clean and shiny but in fact be be pitted with microscopic highs and lows which make it quite resistive to anything sliding along it. I think it is to do with coefficient of depth of molecular penetration and surface tension; which is of course as we all know is very much affected by temperature and humiidty.</P> <P>Rgds Ian </P>
