   I am trying to refurbish by ball washers. The original coat is baked on and tough for our sandblaster to get through, but needs to be removed as it has chipped off in many places. Any tips on a more efficient way to remove this coating myself?

   The most efficient way by far is to send them out to someone who does that type of thing.

   Par Aide has a refurbish program for many for their accessories. Ballwashers included. Go to the Par Aide website. In the search box, type refurbish programs. Many tiers of ballwasher refurbishing come up. You just choose what you want. I had my masters done and the cost was very resonable. FYI, they only do Par Aide equipment.

   Go to lowe's and get liquid paint stripper. Let it sit on for a few minutes and it should come right off.

   Check your local area for a powder coater, we have had all our metal course accessories, a few roll bars, sprayer booms and cradles, sign pedestals, etc, etc for around $600, we also had a certain red color done to refurbish our rollers, verticutters, and triplexes for $400.
   
   Labor, paint, and supplies vs. a sand blasted surface and baked on coating, the math was simple in my case.
   
   Good Luck!

   We had a local powder coater sand blast and powder coat our ball washers for $20 each and had them back in a week.

   There is a product called D-Zolve, it will remove powder coated finishes. (about $40/gallon) A 5 gallon bucket is tall enough to set a ballwasher in. You can get a powder coat gun and supplies from www.eastwood.com. a gun is about $100. Powder comes in all sorts of colors. Find an old oven, anything that will bake at 400 degrees. Once you have the supplies, you can do your own ballwashers for about $2. You then, also, have the ability to put out fresh cups anytime, take 2-3 dollars to do a set of cups. If you need any more info send me an e-mail briarmain@180com.net. I've done a few designer ballwashers for the UK guys, just to show them the possibilities.

   Our local powder-coat business does them for $15/each. Acid dip and fresh powder coat with color of choice.
