Who from INGO can sand/media/whatever blast the rust off of something?

I have a 50cal MK64 machine gun mount that i need the rust removed from. I was able to disassemble the mount and use a wire brush on the smaller pieces, but the main body has a lot of nooks and crannies that i can't get to. It's essentially just the inner portion of this mount (the part with the data plate). I have a car show this month and i hope to take "best truck".

If it's a 50cal mount, then why does the data plate state 'mount, machine gun, 40mm'??

I believe that measurement refers to the "ahem" receptacle you insert said mount into....

It's a mk64 mount, which is the same as a mk93 mount without the shock absorbers. You can fire a mk19, 50 cal, saw...etc etc.

Give me some measurements

 

[vitamink]

what are we talking about exactly?… Just so i'm clear, i'd hate to offend anyone. I will do almost anything to get this done.

I may have access to a beadblast cabinet if that would work. South of Indy, PM me if you want me to check on it.

I think i may have it worked out. I sent Phylodog a picture of the length…he was impressed and said it'd fit! I don't understand all the terminology with bead blasting, but what's, "heavy petting"?

 

[Fargo]

Its where phlyodog polishes the mount until its almost done, but then gives up leaving you to finish it yourself...

 

[phylodog]

I'll admit it, I Lol'd

It means your in trouble and you should bring beer and flowers

I have that mobile one I can do it with.

It would probably fit in my large cabinet but just be easier to do I with the Mobil tank

With a .50 cal mounted to your truck I'm not really convinced you'll have any problems getting "Best Truck", rust or no! I'm willing to bet that nobody will argue the point!
