Hi, newbie here and not sure really if I'm in the right place but hopefully someone can help
I'm making an engine table and the block needs shot blasting all over. We will then spray it gloss black. However I want the gasket surfaces to be smooth bare metal - not exactly polished (to a mirror effect) but just how they would be from the factory. How do you suggest I get a clean, smooth finish on the gasket surfaces, without interrupting the paintwork? Should I:
Blast > polish > mask polished areas > spray
Blast > spray > protect paint somehow > polish
Or maybe a completely different method I haven't thought of?
Thanks in advance guys
