Hi,
That would have been my approach if it was my size. We have a guy locally that does bead blast & great quality powder coat for a reasonable price. I’m going to treat the TT with oxalic acid to see how bad the damage is & if it’s not catastrophic, will offer it to a forum member for shipping and a small donation to the co-op.
Thanks for your input.
Cheers,
Van
