Jstrong Posted December 15, 2024 Report Posted December 15, 2024 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.. Quote
locogato11283 Posted December 16, 2024 Report Posted December 16, 2024 Jeff will know what needs done. Quote
Jstrong Posted December 16, 2024 Author Report Posted December 16, 2024 Yeah man I hope so. Didn’t tell the guy to sandblast the whole motor. You’d figure he’d know that Quote
registered user Posted December 17, 2024 Report Posted December 17, 2024 he sand blasted the bearing bores ? u might still b ok. just glue em in so they cant spin Quote
Jstrong Posted December 17, 2024 Author Report Posted December 17, 2024 Jeff has my motor now. I know he could probably fix it. The guy also got some of the Powdercoat in the threads🤦♂️ Quote
Jereme6655 Posted December 17, 2024 Report Posted December 17, 2024 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. Quote
trickedcarbine Posted January 12, 2025 Report Posted January 12, 2025 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. Quote
