powdercoat removal?

[Michael Osterlund]

any ideas how to remove the powdercoating on my bars?

Sand, sandblast, paint stripper.

 

[Robert]

sand paper and patience

 

[KyrinBingaman]

Sandblaster if you have one.

 

[Kevin Lo]

Sandblast it, or use some paint stripper from Home Depot.

I hand sanded it :

i left the bars like that on purpose and the welds like that cause i liked the way it looked. Looks way better in person too. Oh and the blunt sign thingy i also only sanded the diamonds and left the bottom part black

I can use a sand blaster, but what should I use in the sandblaster?

acetone removes all color but it is an acid so you have to let your bars soak in it for a day or two. and use gloves

Use almond shells or dust

So I don't have to make a new thread - does anyone know if you can just sand the disctict graphics off the deck? They seem almost like stickers.

haha my dad burnt the paint off my forks with a torch and i cleaned it up with a wire brush and buffed it and it looks pretty good

 

[Dallen.]

Use rice in the sandblaster.

Aircraft Remover.
It's made for removing powdercoating, and it's like $8 at any hardware store.

Seriously, use this stuff, it works perfect. Just spray it on and the coating comes off like peeling skin. Yum.
