Leadership Team RogNeedham Posted January 24, 2011 Leadership Team Share Posted January 24, 2011 erm having received upper wishbones back from plasticoating (not powder) - not enough release agent was applied to the anti-roll bar socket. Any tips/ safe chemicals that will remove the stubborn coating at the bottom of the socket ...swearing doesn't seem to help Rog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Nick Chan Posted January 24, 2011 Area Representative Share Posted January 24, 2011 Rog, Thinking a little about this one, you may need to return them to Kelcoat for them to be acid dipped, blasted and re-coated as this stuff is so tough and resistant. I wouldn't expect there to be a charge Just a thought Nick ----- Back in a BEC! - but done alright in Class 1... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheds Moderator Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Get a brass brush in a Dremel or other drill, polish it out with this. Brass is better than a stell brush as it won't touch the steel socket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stationary M25 Traveller Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 If you leave it in there, does it mean the plastic ball will be a better fit ? They get rattly very quick normally !  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Plato Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I don't believe my balls reach the bottom of the socket- there is always grease present down there on strip down  maybe nothing to worry about ? here is my Duratec R ....

Leadership Team RogNeedham Posted January 26, 2011 Author Leadership Team Share Posted January 26, 2011 ooh err missus - wondered how long that would take 😬 thanks for input. Have spoken to Kelcoat and they're happy to re-do I'm sure if i try dremelling the socket I'm likely to get in trouble Rog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
