[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 527227, member: 2736"] Sandblast it with fine sand(Sugar sand) and this will remove the paint and prepair the barrel for repainting. A sand blast finish gives the paint a good anchor pattern and makes it much harder to chip or flake off. Also the sand is non reactive and some chemicals are, so I don't like using them. All it takes is a hand held sand blast gun and a bag of sugar sand. (About $30.00) and some tape to mask off any areas that you want to keep the sand off/out. I use an ear plug in the crown it protect it while blasting it. When applying Alumahyde spray Very light coates until you get good coverage, (This is a place that More is not better) Because the thicker it is the easier it is to chip. Hope this helps J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
