I sandblasted and powder coated.
When I started I was debating whether to do the powder coating. I'm really glad I did it.
I have the springs out being reshaped and coated too. I can't wait to get them back on.
I was going to do the rear end, but I got some advice not too. If you sandblast anything that has a remote chance of grease remaining the glass beads will stick. Then when it goes into the oven for powder coating any left over beads melt and stick like varnish. If this is in the rear end it will destroy the gears after it's rebuilt. So my plan is to sandblast before it's disassembled and then paint after it's rebuilt.
Does anyone have a recommedation on good hard underbody paint?
I'll resize my pics in the future, or maybe just start with links rather than images.
