Powdercoat stripping tips please?

(1/4) > >>

Skyway tuffshit:
Hi all. Can someone tell me the easiest, cheapest and best ways to strip a frame, forks, bars and seat post ready for re powdering please? Is there anything I need to do to them afterwards before sending for powdering? Thanks for your time

Hi

I stripped my sons GT race bike back to the alloy using nothing more that a tin of Nitromors, a paint brush, water to wash it off, took about 3 hours :daumenhoch:

Skyway tuffshit:
Thanks for the tip. Will I get nitromors from a car parts shop or anywhere like B&Q? Do I need to do anything to the bits after to prep for powdering? Thanks again for your help. Will this also work on cranks as I have a White 401 flight to strip down too.

trasher:
Nitromores won't remove powder
You need permatex gasket remover

If your sending it to dan , he will do all the prep for you

stidds:
the gay pensioner is right, Nitomors won't touch powdercoat.  I went to a local car body supply suppliers and bought some really strong paint remover and that takes it off but it is a long job.
