As I am beginning to paint parts on my old combine, i came to my first pulley. I see that the inside of them are all painted, and so i began to paint my first of many. But then i thought,
...I wonder if i shouldn't paint the inside of the pulley where the belt goes?
No one will really see it anyway, and,
...I wonder if the fresh paint i'm using will mess up the new belts i have on order?
I don't plan on using this combine for another year yet.
The implement paint i am using is Vansickle, and i'm using a brush, and it's pretty thick, but it still needs 2 coats. I'm not using a hardener, so it takes a long time for this stuff to set up, and you can't play with the painted parts too much without getting paint on you, even after a few weeks in some places, especially where i let a drip get by, or if i need to turn a nut. I painted a Disc, plow, grain drill, and harrow cart last year, but this is my first combine.
Thanks in advance.
