I will pull all down to metal and have them tape off surface, but has anyone had a problem doing that?

no rubber, plastic or anything that will melt or bearings.. or anything that has a clearance fit... powder can be between 1.5 and 2.0mils thick thats just enough for a bearing not to fit back in...
..and take the piston out of the caliper, the more its appart the better the PC company will like you... I charge extra to take stuff appart.
Taping stuff off shouldnt be an issue for the PC company

Naiveté in grownups is often charming, but when coupled with vanity, it is indistinguishable from stupidity.
Tis better to remain silent and thought a fool - than to speak up and remove all doubt.
Did ever think that maybe you've been doing it wrong all these years?

Good time to also upgrade to the tapered steering bearings too.
That way you won't bugger up the PC job you just spent good money having done by trying to remove them later on, and will know that they'll be new and good for many years/miles to come.

i clean all the big stuff off but i let the powder coater do the glassbeading that way if something screws up its on him;)Sandblasting and cleaning up those parts will save you mucho dough- prep work is where they charge you big time, because it takes so much time!
