Coolant on drive belts

Cheers Graham, appreciated facts mate :-)!
Will have to take new Mrs MB up to Purni Bore and slip test together. Talc is a top idea when dry looking for moisture and I just learnt now Cheers for traction too ;-) !

Yeah, I was also told talc is good when fitting tyres on motorbikes. I was having trouble fitting rear tyre onto the wheel and used a bit of oil to get
it in eventually. A guy told to put some talc in to counteract the damage from oil to the rubber & prevent the possibility of tyre moving on the wheel due to lack of friction. I'm guessing talc can work both ways, whether it's a friction enhancer or a reducer?!
