Does the painters tape hold up for abrasive bead blast? I was going to use black gorilla duct tape, but if the painters tape holds up, it will make it a lot easier.
Just finished scrubbing the apron casting with decreaser. That dried grease is pretty tough to get off. Just about ready to spray it with brake cleaner and clean out the oil passages. And then on to the gears and other components. This year did not have slots milled in shafts to accept felt, but everything seemed pretty good and minimal wear. I could mill the slot in and probably should. I'm not one to pass up an easy upgrade.
