Trenton Tigney Posted September 20, 2013 Report Posted September 20, 2013 Anybody got an suggestions on how to clean the oil an grease off the cases Quote
Starwriter Posted September 20, 2013 Report Posted September 20, 2013 A good friend of mine has a transmission shop. I take my cases there and put them in the parts dishwasher. 20 minutes and they're clean. Quote
Trenton Tigney Posted September 20, 2013 Author Report Posted September 20, 2013 How long should I let it soak? Also can cases be painted on the outside? Quote
troyzstang Posted September 20, 2013 Report Posted September 20, 2013 Also if the motor is disassembled you can bead blast them. They'll look brand new when you're done. Quote
BUILDER Posted September 20, 2013 Report Posted September 20, 2013 Yes they can be painted I painted my wifes 2 seasons ago and they still look great. Quote
Trenton Tigney Posted September 20, 2013 Author Report Posted September 20, 2013 Any kind of specific paint I gotta have? Quote
Zillaguy Posted September 20, 2013 Report Posted September 20, 2013 Engine paint... I use Dupli-Color engine enamel, "cast coat aluminum" color... It makes the cases look like new cast aluminum. Quote
trickedcarbine Posted September 20, 2013 Report Posted September 20, 2013 ^ so you're the "Re-man" tranny builder pumping out all those grenades! Haha On a serious note: wait till the wife or parentals are gone and huck your shit in the dishwasher on pots and pans. Quote
troyzstang Posted September 20, 2013 Report Posted September 20, 2013 ^ Sounds likee a finch idea Quote
Trenton Tigney Posted September 20, 2013 Author Report Posted September 20, 2013 Lol I couldn't put them in there , an dupli color cast allummion paint ? This might sound stupid but you do haft to sand the cases before spraying right? Quote
sheerider1026 Posted September 20, 2013 Report Posted September 20, 2013 Tip for bead blasting : Put an old bolt/screw in all threaded holes in cases before blasting. This keeps the holes and threads clean of gritty media. Quote
dirtydownunder Posted September 21, 2013 Report Posted September 21, 2013 wet bead blast, then clean the fuck out of it after to make sure there isnt any beads left in there. Quote
fappy'97 Posted September 21, 2013 Report Posted September 21, 2013 allummion How is this pronounced? Quote
