Disassemble it! Unless the parts are brand new, it will also need a bath over night in parts degreaser, then mineral spirits or other chemical surface prep, prebake at 350-400 degrees for 20-30 minutes, then coat. If you don't do all of these steps you end up with bubbles and/or peeling from a poor prep job. Don't cut corners or you'll be spending double time stripping off the coating and doing it over!!! Experiment on some other unimportant parts first or you'll be sorry!!!
