Re: Cleaning / Refinishing parts

[Gary Futrell <gary.futrell@xxxxxxxxx>]

I usually run my suspension parts up to the car wash, then have a
local guy  out in the country sand blast it.  I have a sand blaster
but it would make a mess where I live. You can then either paint it
with chassis black or powder coat it.
