<DIV>Hi - I am not in a position to tell you what you might coat the bell
with.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What I would be keen to know is if your bell was made by Naylor
Vickers. If so it will have a serial number on it that will probably be
quite difficult to decipher. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If it is possible to say what the number is can you let me know. Also
the year of manufacture, the diameter and the weght if known.</DIV>
