Drax Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Lockdown mania continues, embarking on first attempt at repainting. Surprised there's not a pinned thread here, but found some good resources digging around. Not come across any mentions of how to handle string-thru ferrules. Any BCer tips or hacks here, for removal / reinstall, or masking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Take everything off the area to be painted. Trying to paint around things won't work as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 Sure, makes sense. Is there an accepted way to get ferrules out / back in. Had a go at tapping out from the front side with no success - assume they're glued. Is it just brute force? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
