Thanks,
Well I did some small parts today. Only wanted them coated to prevent rust better than painting, new plain steel stuff. No polishing.
WOW, that aluminum oxide I have really made a dust storm. My cabinet isn't done but thought heck I can use it as is now for a couple small parts. WRONG!! I never made that much dust doing cars in the past!
So I just sanded the parts instead with an electric sander. I needed to knock off rough edges around some drilled holes also.
I washed them in Dawn dish soap before and after sanding, then wiped down with acetone also. Used well water for the washing then distilled water for a final rinse and water break test.
They came out nice considering the steel condition with scratches and dings in the metal.
OK, I'm hooked now even more than before, my first little home built oven worked ok also, so now to finish the blaster cabinet and pull the valve covers from my 4X4 tomorrow
Shucks, I just got the truck and those leaky covers need new gaskets anyways, might as well PC them while off right
