Thanks for the welcome and the answers. My supplies are due in on the 2nd of Jan. so I hope to be posting a few pics shortly afterward.
I may want to get into sandblasting at some point. Most of the aluminum that will be cooking is new and would only need cleaning. I am sure that I will have other things that need doing. Sandblasting seems to be a good way to prep some rough surfaces and strip paint, like for a car wheel.
I am still reading through as many posts as I can and gaining lots of valuable info. Thanks for having such a great forum to go along with such cool products for finishing stuff.
Oh. If you will notice the pop rivets in the pics above, I would like these to be coated the same finish as the tail on the guards. Has anyone ever done up a batch of rivets?
The ones in the aluminum portion will get done when its coated, but the ones through the polycarbonate should be the same flavor. Opinions or ideas on this?
Thanks.
