I've asked a few metal working persons and they all say the same thing "It should be fine, but I wouldn't do it without the manufacturer sayings its ok" So i'm going to call Tony on monday and ask. But if there are opinions for you guys I'd love to hear them too.

Oh and what size cone wrenches do I need to repack a campag record hub from the early-mid 90s
Last I heard the IRO frames are all powder coated and then clear coated. You may have a heck of a time getting the powder coat off (maybe...). I think Ryan and Keith were talking about it a few weeks ago and Ryan decided not to take the repainting plunge...
