Custom Powder Coating
New Powder ****!!!
This little cast iron doorstop named Pupp-O had a "ruff" life! He belonged to my customer's grandparents.
This LD340 had a rough life too.
After getting the brass fitting removed, there was only 1 full thread left on the opening along with severe galling.
I suspect the first owner forgot never-seize ... so new owner turned it upside down and put too much force on the pipe wrench. "&*%@!!!! Let's gob some blue **** on there and stick this NPT brass fitting my dad had in there." Ugh.
It's all reconstructed now with as close as I could get to looking factory. A new black 3/4" x 4" pipe nipple cut to fit and notched, some (rarely used) heavy duty metal compound and a black, silver and clear powder job turned into this. And no leaks!
That's it for now. Thanks for your support FABO!! :D
