Learned something new in this video for sure. With regards to dry blasting being an option to strip the anodizing, do Pryme wheels have the same effect without the negative of taking the shine out of the metal? I've stripped a few swingarms entirely with Pryme wheels, and I never realized they were anodized.
@mxrevival Жыл бұрын
Stoked to hear that, KP. yes totally. You could Dry blast a swing arm to speed up the pace, then use Cameron’s wheels on it to bring the shine back up on the spars for example. The great thing about vapor blasting is the uniformity of everything. Otherwise, totally not necessary as you already know having done it other methods.

What size media are you using in your blaster? i tried the same swingarm close to the front at 60 psi and it started making some serious impressions much last sand blasting so i stopped.
@mxrevival2 жыл бұрын
I use the smallest glass bead you can get 👍 you're on the right track, you just need to do the blending phase after. I explain it in the video. Pressures may also vary from machine to machine with different guns etc but the blast lines are normal before the blend phase

Once done vapor blasting the swing arm wound I have to re anodize again? I keep the bike clean regularly would I have any problems in the long run?
@mxrevival2 жыл бұрын
It's a good idea to do so, but as it is your art, you can do as you please! You could also do a clear ceramic coating such as cerakote

Do all the cr500s have anodized swing arms? I have a 1997 that Im in the process of building.
@mxrevival Жыл бұрын
To be honest, I have yet to see a Japanese swing arm that wasn’t anodized. Unless it was very old! You’re 97 almost certainly is. I do not believe the modern KTM uses any anodizing and is simply raw aluminum alloy.

@alanbrown1563 Жыл бұрын
Hi Charles I've learned a lot from your videos could you tell me which nozzle your using ' i have the same gun with a 32 cfm compressor and how much media to the water do you use thanks mate.
@mxrevival Жыл бұрын
Stoked to hear that & thanks for watching. This video might be helpful. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGbEg2Z7gLCDja8 Also, I simply have my gun's nozzle paired to the HP of the compressor as recommended. So I did not use CFM in relation to choosing a nozzle. The water to media is also hard to gauge as the cabinet is always being filled and drained of water when wiper runs & the spray-off hose is used. My cabinet says "fill water to this line" without regard to capacity when first refilling- So water amount is always fluctuating drastically. I do always dump in a 50lb bucket of media though. That's the only constant & known measurement.

Aren't you meant to anodize swing arm after?
@mxrevival2 ай бұрын
I wouldn’t say we are “meant to” but it certainly isn’t a bad idea. The manufacturer does it to keep maintenance down and longevity up for 99% of people. In that case, keeping this swing arm looking good will require some Scotch-Brite after each ride. The trade off is a super trick looking swinger (bright, cool brush lines if well kept) at the expense of ease of maintenance. Good question! Thanks for watching!

The inside of the arm will now corrode like mad the caustic soda will carry on eating the inner faces as you will not be able to remove it
