Hi All,
Hoping to get some good advice for solving my latest issue. My installed main gear legs have developed "rust freckles". Both have been installed for about 4 years (really slow build) and both have the original powder coating as received from Vans. I suspect with some of the wild temp and humidity swings has caused condensation to settle on the gear thereby making the rust freckles. So, given they are installed, can I sand down the powder coating, clean, prime and paint. Or should I consider removing them and having them stripped and re-powder coated?
