bake off

[smokin 2 stroke]

i heard you can do a bake off but how exactly do you do thi

[sredish]

the only way I know to do a bake off is to bake some cookies and have your neighbor bake some cookies then let your friends decide whose is best.... :thumbsup:

 

What exactly are you trying to do, pc something or remove some pc. if your trying to take pc off, then use a sandblaster.

You can bake it off by placing the item in the oven you are using, turning it up to 600* and let it stand till the powder begins to flake. It will look like a chared marshmellow.

does it work for paint to

[kaotik1]

Paint will actually bake off at about 400*

ok cool, so if i were to put my cylinder and clutch cover in my oven at 550 it will bake the paint off

[kaotik1]

It should yes. It may not flake up but sandblasting afterwards is suggested.

you can buy a small bead blaster from harbor frieght i want to say for like 300-400 bucks. maybe cheaper, but im not sure if tats just the cabnet and you still need the wand and pump and everthing else. if it is 300 for everything thats not a bad item to have around. everyone can use a good sand blaster lol

You should use a sandblaster, they get into all the little areas you cant touch with paper. It will not really affect the how the powder sticks if you get it right. The bake off is more important because it gets all the oils and such off the metal.

That's the funniest thing I have heard all day. I suppose that says something about my day.

Baking the cylinders and the clutch cover are bad Ideas. Heat has the ability to WARP things. Everytime I have seen a set of cylinders get coated then baked the bore gets out of round and needs to be fixed. Just go to your hardware stool or industrial supply and get aircraft stripper. Kinda like pait stripper but more TOXIC.

 

 

 

BTW the cookie bake off thing was some funny sh!t

I have done more than a few jugs, they are fine with low temp bake offs. I have heard that nikosil is bad to bake off and coat, but I did a set not to long ago, and have not heard back. I assume they are fine.

 

Why not bake off the side cover? As long as it is not a magnesium cover it will be fine.

Some big motors that have had polished side covers have been known to break over time. Some believe that the heat weakens the cover allowing it to crack up by the kick starter. Anytime you heat something, even at at low temp you are making it more brittle.
