So....heating is next on the list
Hi All!
What is the best way to go about R&Ring my heating tubes and flapper boxes? Should I get them acid dipped and powercoated, or what would the peanut gallery recommend? b

Probably bead blasting is better. I think acid is too corrosive and can damage metal parts. Powdercoating might work OK but could cause problems with the moving parts. Just a good quality high-temp paint is fine. Eastwood company sells some good stuff but the FLAPS stuff is probably fine also.
