Remember that failing to remove the powder coat from the areas that rotate in the phenolic can make them difficult to operate smoothly. I always remove the powder coat with a torch and wire brush, then grease after cooling, before installing them. A torch melts the powder coat and a wire brush removes it from the area I need in just a minute or two. It works so much better that way.
