Bill Boudway Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Does anyone have a good process to clean and finish a cast marine bronze crankcase for an early Locomobile?Chemical? Blasting media? Clear coat? Thanks,Bill Boudwaygnbboudway@msn.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter J.Heizmann Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Hi, Bill...how are you? Hope all is well.My foundry experience is limited concerning brass/bronze, however, have run across various accounts that do ornamental brass parts.Someone within the forum, probably, has case histories, however, I would advise the chemical route. Would not advise the blast media to avoid pitting. The chemical stripping would clean all impurities. Lacquer coat the part after cleaning and polishing to avoid "greening" of the finish.Just my initial thoughts, Bill.Regards, Peter J. <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
