Progress of small parts taking shape
After sandblasting a laboring over several parts to get them cleaned, we have made progress. We desided during this project to cut cost as much as possible, but retain a maintenance free car. We are powdercoating anything that will be underneath and in the engine bay that can be coated and not be destroyed by the heat of the oven temps, so no vacuum booster and stuff like that. I started with some brake components. The caliper I tried intact, I have now desided to separate the halves of two other calipers and retain their seals and recoat them. I just could not be sure if I melted a seal when doing this one, so why chance it, I will do it right. The master cylinder hwas completely disassembled and an NOS kit used with new check vave, I wire buffed the banjo fittings and cleared those. I will be using a lot of this "almost Chrome powder coat" on a lot of these parts from Eastwood. I have now switched to a different product from Columbia Coatings here in TN, that offers even better products. I used there super mirror black on the black parts later
