I'm Back, Sorta....
I posted this over in the tech talk forum but I thought I would post it here as well....
So I went down for knee surgery on April 2 and have been unable to ride since, so I thought it would be a good time to have my covers powder-coated, I just got them back yesterday and they turned out great, except for one issue, there is all kinds of over-spray on the inside of the cam cover (I put it next to the Clutch cover for comparison):
My knee is just feeling well enough for riding so I was hoping to get it back together this weekend and I am curious as to whether the over-spray will mess up the motor..... Thoughts?

I would think the powder would hold but if it did not it could do some damage. I think i would beed blast the inside just to be safe.

Not a garage, and not a showroom, Airplane hangar. For some reason they like to put nice epoxy floors in airplane hangars.......
Thanks for the input Bill I appreciate it.
