[QUOTE="phil d, post: 503847, member: 27126"] It does Andy, anything that affects an mot testers ability to conduct a test is grounds for a refusal. My mate had a MK 2 Escort, he used to coat the brake and fuel lines in grease to prevent corrosion, never had a problem until the tester retired, the new one refused to test it point blank! It's a stupid thing, I remember some testers wouldn't pass a car if say they'd failed it on a rotten sill and you'd welded a new one on and painted over it because they 'couldn't see the weld' lie a thin coat of primer is going to prevent them seeing a weld. lol [/QUOTE]
