Have any of you ever seen a galvanized pulley on these factory. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 5,337 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 5,337 |

Washed it off thensandblast brake cleaner and dried then sprayed. Almost all lifted the next morning, and I can scrape it off by fingernail on just the pulley. Guess I'll try it one more time. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 10,274 Renaissance Man | | Renaissance Man Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 10,274 | Try some self-etching primer. Rustoleum makes some that I have have good results with.
