Miura Rear Louvers
I could not believe how much paint was on these louvers. If I would have sent them out to the blaster to remove the material that was on them I believe the outside of the aluminum would have been ruined. We chose to hand chemical strip the louvers to remove the majority of the paint first before media blasting. Good call… because they hardly needed any surfacing. We went with a heat resistant primer first to play it safe for motor high heat temp escaping.
- All old material on louvers was striped
- Hand chemical stripping to remove 90% of the old material
- You must be very careful not to get any stripper between the aluminum skin and steel frame
- After the majority of material has been chemical hand stripped you are safe to media blast without warping outer skin
- After surfacing you’re ready to apply the heat-resistant primer
- You can see how nice they turned out from the reflection
