Tom Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 I'm luming 3 sandwich dials tonight and on one of them I was a bit over-zealous with the razor blade, removing the old lume. As a result the surface is down to bare metal and quite scratched. I didn't think this would be a problem if I'm luming over the top, but would anyone be able to tell me if it will? I can always apply a very thin layer of primer if going to be an issue. Regards, Tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWG Technical Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 No need or reason to scrape the old lume off...it serves as a good starting base. RG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sssurfer Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Not a problem as long as the lume coat you are going to apply is thick enough. I use chemical means (acetone) rather than physical means to remove the old lume from sandwich dials. Much faster, effortless, and safer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted June 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I think i'm going to spray thin layer or primer over the plate first. Thanks for all your help.
