Sandblasting Door Actuators
2 Attachment(s)
Planning on sandblasting my door actuators and then Epoxy priming them. Is there a reason why it wouldn't be a good idea to sandblast them? I plan on hitting the pivot points with white lithium grease once primed.

I did mine also. Just make sure you get all the sand off. I rinsed them with the sprayer, in the sink. Then immediately blew them completely dry with the air compressor nozzle.

The one step that hasn’t been discussed, is now that the part has been sandblasted, the door actuators are somewhat exposed to moisture. So a light coat of clear, or something, would help protect the part from re-rusting. And then of course, greasing/lubing all the working mechanisms. |

Maybe too late but I would soak them in lacquer thinner or some type of solvent for awhile to "melt" all the old grease out. Less places for the sand to stick to.
