WOuld a hot tank take paint off of a Ranch hand front bumper? I dont really want to sand or sandblast it unless i have to.

 

its powder coated so pretty tough stuff

 

Yeah I thought of that after i posted then went outside to see if it was paint or powder.

 

so why ya want the paint off

 

Its starting to come off in some places so i thought i would take it all off make sure there is no rust then use a spray on rhino lining on it

 

the Rhino lining requires a roughed up surface to adhear to so a grinder will do just fine......been there done that and it works very well, sticks like glue

 

Really? I think it woul dbe a pain grinding everything especialy all the round pipe on it

 

sandblasting is yer best bet but with patience a grinder will work too

 

I've used a rosebud tip on an Acetylene torch to warm 10" areas of the powder coat and then followed immediately with a sandblaster, made short work of stripping the powder coating. I used the Black Sand / slag for media and it worked great.

 

keep in mind if yer going to Rhino it then ya dont need to remove the powdercoat just buff it up rough
