I spent about 2 hours cleaning, bead blasting and wire wheeling this strut. I got it primed and the next thing I knew is it crashed to the concrete. Primer worked good but the strut is now a boat anchor. It bent the hell out of the top. If the cap would have been on there it would have been scratched primer.
