No worries I talked to the powdercoater last week and when they blast it the metal will be rougher than the sanding I did which I didn't use fine paper also they have done lots of bicycles and know enough to mask off and plug the threaded areas such as the BB. They 've been at this a long time and from all I have heard as I have asked around is that they are really good at what they do and I have seen several examples of their work and its top shelf so I'm not too worried in fact when I told the lady I wanted to strip the paint off she said I really didn't have to but as I told her I wanted to take the little divots out of the frame she told me "well thats ok then"
