Ok so Ive redone many tractors (about 20) and am constantly trying to improve my methods to speed up and to make it easier. I typically power wash (with heat and purple power degreaser) the tractor 2 times before pulling in shop. Once In the shop I will disassemble the tractor and of course there is tons of dirt and grease buildup you find once disassembled. I then start scraping with putty knife, razor blade, screw driver, wore brush on grinder, etc. once it has been scraped and blown off with air, I would like to use some sort of degreaser to spot clean areas by scrubbing and rinsing with a regular garden hose. Once the whole tractor has been spot cleaned I would like to power wash one more time without degreaser
OR SHOULD I USE DEGREASER THEN ?
This should be when Im ready to prime it. Im thinking of using the product pictured to do the spot cleaning. I can get it at work but not sure if it will do the Job.
Secondly, when I do the final power wash before painting like I mentioned ; should I be using something before, during, or after to make sure any degreaser or oil is off the cast surface?? If so what do I need to use and when to use?? After reading a lot on here Im wanting to use an epoxy primer then paint the color coat within 24-48 hours on the tractor Case IH Ironguard dealer paint or sometimes urethane enamel from paint shop if I cant get ironguard in time.
