So, this is really awesome. I picked up another headlight bracket due to one of mine was not the original style and did not match. EBAY for $20 delivered so that was fine.
The problem was it was powder coated. Looked good but not does not match my other one.
Next challenge, How does one remove powder coating?
Blasting Cabinet? = NOPE
Bench Grinder? = NOPE
Paint Stripper? = NOPE
OK, Drastic measures.
Years ago I used some Aircraft Stripper that worked great. I picked up some a few months ago and it wan nothing like before.. Did not do squat. I researched why, seems they had to remove some of the chemicals that did the stripping.
Methylene Chloride- Well, why cant I put it back in.
Ordered some online and some Formic Acid. Another ingredient.
Seems Methylene Chloride dissolves powder coating.
I mixed 75/25 Methylene and Formic acid and HA!
Soaked the piece for 15 minutes and the coating fell off. CRAZY COOL!
