I think a wire brush and a can of rustoleum should do the trick.

You have a Wizard painted on it or something?

Just my $.05, but probably needs to be sand blasted, then primed/painted with VHT paint...

You could throw a rock in any direction in Lafayette and hit a sandblasting machine at an o&g tools service shop needing to be put to work.

Depending on how quick you need it done hit up some local high schools with FFA programs. Make a small donation to the school FFA program and this gives the kids something to work on for a few weeks.

Lemoine or Turner should be able to handle that.

Why the frick would I want to waste my time doing it when I can pay someone who knows what they’re doing to do it?

Because it's not rocket science or any special skills needed to accomplish, just a bit of light grunt work with a wire wheel, sander and a few cans of high temp spray paint.

Great. You want to come for it? I would rather pay someone to do it and not have to frick with it. I’ve sandblasted enough shite in my lifetime.

Which is it?

First you say you want someone to do it who knows how.

Then you say you’ve sand blasted enough things imply you do indeed know how to do it.

Or you’re lazy.

Which is it?

I do know how to sandblast. You think I have a sandblasting machine in my shed? I want it done right. Sandblasted, primed and painted. Rent a machine, buy sand, buy primer, buy paint, and rent a paint sprayer. Again, may as well pay someone to do it.

I could’ve also built my own table for my ceramic grill. However, I paid someone who knows carpentry better than I do to do it.

Ok so you don’t know how to do it right. Got it.

Just say you’re incompetent to do it. It’s OK.
