Very cool!!!

Question... What do you do if I don't have a sand blaster? Wire brush and POR?

[chriss68]

a few different methods will work. if you are stripping to bare metal, you can buy paint stripper chemical and brush on and then peel the paint off. this method is very messy and a pain in the rump. one way that is cheaper and cleaner is to use a wire wheel on an angle grinder or a paint stripping wheel. sandblasting is the fastest method. took me 15min to strip all the drums and bars.
