Just a little bling bling teaser

Today was very productive - we got Jay's (multiplex) head on and initial stage of 60 ft lbs on a 0.070" MLS done today, with all sealing and stuff, so that's good. I myself spent most of the day bead blasting various parts and then Jay helped powder coat them. I think it came out re-freakin-diculous.

Thanks again Jay!





More to come if Jay lets me use the oven more! haha.

That's the best part. Powder coating creates a similar finish as a color + epoxy over it. So, not only are the parts sickly shiny, but they have a smooth "clear coat" finish. I could have a major major oil leak and wipe it right off.

Fails for lack of removal of casting flash!

Your parts look great! Are you using one of the Eastwood kits? Are you prebaking the parts to sweat out the oils & degreasing before applying the coating?

[Jon K]

Thanks guys.

John B. I bead blast the parts very thoroughly
