When you get repo parts(like from Lmc) they come with some kind of paint or coating on them. I have been scuffing them up and primer/ painting them. Is this what you guys do? Should I be doing something else? Does anyone know what that coating is?
 
Probably lacquer for offshore manufacturing....

Strip it off and epoxy prime

Its an electroplating. Probably best to strip it if youre going for a good paint job.
 
Thank you. Guess I have some stripping to do. (Dual tank straps and supports).
