     First, as many of the component parts as possible
 were removed to prepare the fire truck for powdercoating.
     Next it was sandblasted to remove the old paint
and corrosion, providing a clean surface for priming
and powdercoating.
    All of the various parts were then primed with a zinc
 containing powdercoat to create a strong anti-corrosion
 barrier.
    Here we see the powder being applied to the body
 of the truck.
       These are some of the
  parts after receiving their 
  final powdercoat finish.
