Default Re: I just can't figure this out.

Only use desmut after stripping.

Strip, rinse, desmut, rinse, dry.

Then blast or polish.

If I blast, I then go to hot, soapy water for a hard scrub with a toothbrush. Then degrease to pass WB, rinse, then to ano bath.

If polished, clean off polishing compound with a soft toothbrush and lacquer thinner, then a soft scrub with hot, soapy water with a soft toothbrush. Rack with gloved hands, degrease just long enough to pass WB (usually about 5-10 sec), then to ano.
