how not to remove coating
AMAC	#1 Posted on 02/06/2014 9:37 AM

I wanted to remove the coating from the mixing container in my BM. I first tried aircraft remover in a spray can to no effect. I then heated the container with a heat gun (with appropriate PPE) to see if the remover needed a bit more energy; no effect. Then i tried to burn the coating off with the heat gun; no effect. Then while I was burning things i tried my MAP gas torch but while torching I remembered a better torch. I have a 100K BTU propane torch for weed removal etc. So I went out in the snow (with proper PPE) and sent an inferno inside the container. I should have stopped. Anybody here a bad aluminum welder? I am. At this temperature i'm not sure what happens to the coating but you will melt your container and stirrer. Back to the drawing board. AMAC
