Quick tip guys, if you need to remove powder coating or paint from your parts get a quart of "Aircraft Stripper" mad by kleen strip. I had to remove the powder coating from the cluch side case cover and this stuff took it ALL off in about 15 minutes quick and easy.

Kick ass, thanks for the info, I was getting ready to do a post asking how to take that chit off. Where did you get the stuff?

 

Also, do you or anyone else know what will take off paint from a powder coated surface without removing the powder also?

 

 

:cheers:

good luck Led tryign to find something to remove the paint from the top of powder without harming the powder coat. if its just a little over spray though you should be able to use a little paint thinner to wipe it off without hurting the PC

I'll second that.

I got it at an automotive paint supply place $10 for a quart - WAY easier / faster than sand blasting.

So will paint thinner also remove PC?

it shouldnt harm it as long as its just a little on a rag or something. i would try a test spot first. it may dull the PC finish a little but should shine back up with some wax.

Well I'll probably just get it sandblasted with the frame tomorrow when I take it to get it blasted. Reason I ask is my burgard arm,...the previous owner, don't ask me why, painted it with black paint...and he did a very, very shitty job to say the least...so it's almost like it's PC here & a little painted here,...etc. Looks like crap. I'll probably just re-paint it & say the hell with it. Thanks for the info though guys, cleared a lot of questions up that I had. :cheers:

If you want to take the powdercoating off the frame, for example, to paint it, get a 15,000 btu propane torch, like the ones you use to burn sidewalks, burn the powdercoating off, powdercoats are baked on, so if you heat them up..it will just flake away
