Need Suggestions for Powder Coat Removal
I have tried searching the forum for this subject but for whatever reason it wont let me using my phone and that's my only source of the internet.So does anyone have any suggestions as to how to remove powder coating. I have tried using 40 grit and 60 grit sanding disc but they clog and just smear the coating. I'm working with thin metal maybe 18 gauge so I can't get too carried away with a grinder. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks

I guess my response is;
"Why remove it!??" Heck, if it has protected the metal for this long, let it keep working. Sure, PC has its problems, but, the negative is poor prep of the metal. Where it is sticking, it will keep on sticking, IMHO, Blend the edges, and shoot paint!

The way I heard works the best, is using a DA with sticky pads. The poor job that MTD did putting powder coating on, is the reason it wont stay on. At Red Power I talked to a guy who does the powder coating for MTD and there is no prep work done just shoot it. Now you know.

For what it's worth...
Different companies make a plastic-like disk that go on an angle grinder. They look kinda like a VERY coarse very thick "scotchbrite" pad. The ones that I have used are normally blue in color and have an aluminum (or pot metal) threaded back. I have gotten them at Sherwin Williams (kinda spendy) and Home depot (much cheaper). They do "load up" but they also wear away, so the build up does go away. They work best using very light pressure. There are also some that fit in a drill, but most hand held drills don't turn fast enough to make very good time with. No matter what you use, light pressure is your best friend.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
