|   sanding down the bitch | Carbnjunkie
Feb 26, 2003 6:13 PM | | hey guys,
i just sanded down the lowers of 2k manitou mars C. they were made out of maganesium, is this safe? And the arch is made out of carbon fiber, so it safe to take the orange paint of that too? (it fades from orange to the cool carbon stuff on the top.
oh oh and anyone know where i can get hooked up with some fly manitou stickers? thanks guys

and for sanding the magnesium I am not sure about that, but I do know that drilling in mag requires alot of care. |

| Magnesium corrodes easily, that's why the paint was there NM | GrahamKracker
