Thanks Gentlemen. Nothing sh!ts me more than doing a job and having it fail because you only went to 90% and not the whole nine yards. If I'm going to the effort I want my paint to stick and not to score the bore in prep. Just a simple paint job not an engine rebuild. Without going to too much trouble I might plug the in/outlets and wire wheel the barrel and see if it looks paint worthy. I'm thinking ahead I just want the bastard to run at the mount................
