Hey guys, I recently got my Banshee case Powdercoating coat. The guy that Powdercoated , my Banshee mistakenly sandblasted the whole case. Including all the material on the inside. So I sent my case out to Jeff from fast racing for resurfacing.(he said he’ll try his best).It’s currently being shipped to him just wondering is this fixable? Do I have to worry about the sandblasting in the area such as The holes where the bearings lay? If anyone has any information on how sandblasting work. Please let me know really don’t want to buy new cases. Now I regret even getting the case powder coated in the first place..

Powdercoat in threaded holes is common for anything being powdered. Most places will talk with the customer and block off the threaded holes if possible. Does that mean they’re going to be perfect? Absolutely not. It’s common for a tap/die to be needed to chase the threads and clear out the powder coating after application.

All easily dealt with. Lotta cases get blasted. If the bearing surfaces aren’t physically altered other than blasting, I don’t think there will be issues. Maybe a dab of loctite or sealant on the bearing when it goes in if anything. 
 

Threads are an easy fix with a tap and dye. Super common.
