Re: Powder Coating Suspension

[Jimmysmth@aol.com]

I personally would not paint, powder coat, or electroplate any stressed 
suspension parts on a racecar.  I want to be able to detect a crack using 
magnaflux, dye penetrant, or visual inspection.  The coatings may mask small 
cracks.  Another thing I would worry about would be hydrogen embrittlement of 
plated parts.   Just my $.02.
