Parts list for vapor honing

I can't stress too much (I can't cos I have a hernia LOL) the importance of using a Company who are used to working with old bikes and cars as they KNOW what they are doing and will take good care of the things that matter.

Just picking a local Company out of the blue is always asking for trouble, so always seek recommendations from other Members of the Forum.

The Royal Observer Corps had a Motto which is very appropriate today 'Forewarned is forearmed' !

Wow. That little stash is going to cost a fortune to have vapour blasted. At least it will if the blaster your using is as expensive as mine.

I will give it all a thorough cleaning with a high pressure washer several times!

oldboy:
Just had my c/cases, head, barrel, carbs done. My only bit of advice is pressure wash the parts after blasting, then clean,clean and clean again. The shit gets everywhere and it won't take much to wreck an engine. But it does look good when finished, even unpainted.

Sesman:
Then dry for a few days in the airing cupboard or for a couple of hours at 90degC in the oven and blow out all passages with a high pressure airline. Avoid the dishwasher as it will ruin the finish.
