My RV-6A finishing kit from 2000 has been stored inside my shop during a very slow build. Most parts are still OK however the canopy frame and roll bar were not covered over and there is filliform type corrosion on the surfaces where dust settled. My bad, I guess, for not keeping covered, as I thought powdercoat was impervious. As an aside, I was never really happy with the factory powdercoating on the frame because there was marker pen lettering showing through and baked into the coating.
Now I think I need to take it all back to bare metal and refinish, in either new powdercoat or epoxy.
I've tried sanding the coating and it comes off gradually. Is there an easier or better way to get it off?
