what to mask for a arms?

dropping off a arms to the powder coater tomorrow. What should I mask?
- interior of sway bar bushing
- front and rear a-arm bushing
- should I mask the ball joint mount?
- anything else?

Mask from the "flanges" to the end where you see the bushings.

Do not need to mask ball joint area.

Powder coated mine a few weeks back and it helped to mask the ball joint mating surface so that the recess in the a-arm (little square cut out) accepted the ball joint cleanly. Just my .02.

ask Neil Young put it: "beter to mask off / than to sand away"
