Advice needed
 

I am rehabbing a cat 0 brinly plow. The surface of the plow bottom is rusted and pitted what is the best way to prepare the surface for use. I concidered a grinder, sanding disc but I do not want to make it worse. I am sure if i used it it would polish up but I do not have any where to plow.

I sandblasted my plow and painted the white parts with good paint, the rest of it I used aerosol epoxy and aerosol black krylon. When I took it to the first plow day the paint wore off and it shined like chrome in about 15 minutes, after I was done plowing I put a bag over the white and sprayed some black on the plow to keep it from rusting.

Tim I know if I use it it will polish up. I am not going to use it. I want to sell it. I guess I could paint it but I was hoping to get it all shined up.

When I did mine I cleaned it real good with a wire wheel, polished it up with a little sandpaper, and just put some olive oil on it. It sat for a few years in the barn without rusting, until the stupid cat peed on it:bash2:

Got any dirt roads nearby? My brother shined up his little genius #8 plow pretty good by setting it almost down to the stones and rode up and down it a few times. Apart from that just plowing....

I sold several plows last year. I used a sanding flap disc to remove the rust. Them I gave a coat of Pam cooking spray and wipe the extra off.

Sounds like a moving target for you to practice on. :biggrin2:

That cat has almost "disappeared" a few times.:angry:

LMAO, I've seen a couple go away, I wonder what happened? Way back when I lived in CT my late wife had a nasty cat, well it made the mistake of clawing me on the way out the door to go to work. I grabbed it, stuffed it in a garbage can and dropped it off at the quarry. Bye Bye Kitty. :biggrin2:

Who is hording all the cat 0 plows I used to buy 3-4 a year now you can't find one for sale. Non on craigslist and one incomplete on ebay. Some body out there must be sitting on pile of them.
