I bought a Famco 3R press today. $80 from Craigslist. According to
some eBay auction descriptions, it can do up to 4 tons of force.
It weighs, I would say, 170 lbs. It is about all I can lift by
myself. While it is in good physical shape, no major rust, etc, its
paint flaked off in about 3/4 of its area.
I decided to clean it up and repaint it. To that end, I removed paint
from easy to access areas using a 4" grinder and a cup brush. That
took care of 80% of paintable surface. However, that left a lot of
crevices uncleaned.
To clean, them, I am leaning towards visiting Harbor Freight and
buying some sandblasting gun and just sandblasting those places.
Would anyone have any suggestions here?
Also, what primer would you use to paint it.
I am kind of tempted to paint it in some fun color like red.
thanks

Not to be picky, Tom, but you need to update the copyright on your
website. Being eight years off, makes it look like an abandoned
website.
