Looking to remove paint from my swim platform. Its a bar styleplatfor like seen on a powerplay or as in my case a Thoroughbred. I want to repaint it because of the chipping and peeling of it. I beleive its stainless if im correct

Its aluminum and the best way to refinish it is to have it sand blasted and powdercoated.

Hey griff i just took it off and took some paint off it is SS but i would assume the same physics and system would apply to cleaning and painting am i correct??

I paint, and you are correct! if it's a peeling problem then it needs to be blasted! but if it's just chips from use then it can be featheredged and painted over with no problem............

no it need to be taken down to bare steel then re shot do i have to power coat or can i prime and paint

have it powder coated it will look much better and last longer.

I have to disagree. When the pc starts to chip, and it will, it comes off in big flakes.

If it's a peeling (adhesion) problem then it needs to be stripped, if it's just chips from use it can be featheredged and primed then refinished. And I agree with Cuda, have it painted rather than powdercoated..........

I used paint stripper from lowes and had mine powdercoated again. The stripper made it easy to get off.

The chips are huge nothing that a blend or feather edge will help i have a bady guy that does all custome stuff (if anyone need it also) to take care of it i just have to prep it but i want to be part of the project so that we can do a little customeizing with paint=-)
