Metal spraying.
Hi all.
Does anyone know of a cheap place that does metal spraying?
If all goes to plan there will be another engine in my Shed next Saturday, its been restored but has run the main bearings and will need the crank skimming then building up, or so i'm led to believe! but until i get it home and look inside i cannot be sure!
i won't say what the engine is just yet but i may be asking around for another crankshaft instead. watch this space !

Re: Metal spraying.

Re: Metal spraying.
It's capable of running but has an issue with binding up in the bore and is now stripped for the liner to be skimmed and rings to be gapped !Lewis MacRae wrote:Looks great does it run?

Re: Metal spraying.
