Bead Blasting Near Frederick?
Bead Blasting Near Frederick?
Would like to spruce up my 2007 KTM motor before installing it in 2013 KTM for sale.
Anybody know of a bead blasting service - OR any other similar ideas near by?

What do you need done? We have a blast cabinet at the shop and I live in Fredneck.
Re: Bead Blasting Near Frederick?
I am going to sell a 2013 KTM 200 with a 2007 engine in it. SO the idea was to make the old engine look spiffy by bead blasting the outside of it (with it fully assembled except carb) to get rid of the stains and scratches, etc. The motor is realtively small and weighs 50 lbs.

Cabinet won't handle that.

Re: Bead Blasting Near Frederick?
I've got a cabinet that can handle that but I would be hesitant to beat blast an assembled engine. No matter how well you seal the engine the beads can find a way in. Also, any paint or coating will come off. You'll have a plain jane engine. All this said, if you still want to blast it you could do it on the 23rd after we ride the cove.

I'll definately think about what you said, BUT as of now, I think I want to take you up on your generous offer (and there will be some liquid THANKS)Wingfixer wrote:I've got a cabinet that can handle that but I would be hesitant to beat blast an assembled engine.
