Default Almost done !

Got all the repairs done to the "new" mower deck , all I need to do now is
bolt stuff back on it - after a sandblast and some paint . To my critics - I
think you might have been confused , the deck with the serious cancer is
going to be scrapped . The best parts of both will be kept .


Sandblast might reveal more damage. I've used just about every coating
on a deck. Most don't hold up to the constant abuse under the deck. The
only two that have lasted longest were the factory powder coat and good
enamel with a topcoat of the non rubberized bed liner. Both lasted
longer with a good coat of slip plate paint (graphite paint).

If the price was lower I would ceramic coat the underside. That would
take a beating but it isn't in the budget $$$$$.
