In Reply to: RE: Why paint the bells of the trannies and not the laminations? Doesn't look right? nt posted by viridian on January 06, 2017 at 07:40:33
Reading around about how to deal with rust on a lamination stack yields some different opinions.
Some don't want to risk the lams shorting together (or something like that), which might happen if they are cleaned of the rust. Some have said that painting the lams could cause more heat buildup in the transformer.
Others say the lams can be carefully, painstakingly cleaned of rust and painted.
Either way, I would think it is mostly a cosmetic issue.
Follow Ups:
agreed there has been a lot of bandwidth used on the painting of lams, just as there has been on cathode stripping and big foot. Practical experience leads me to believe that these are all legendary, but I certainly respect those whose experience runs counter to my own.And yes, of course it is cosmetic.
