Default Re: internal engine enamel

regarding Dave in MN narrative of his processes in engine rebuilding, I would think his use of Gyptal on the internal surfaces would be some gaurentee that any residue from the glass beading process would be mechanically bonded by the Glyptol to ensure it not become particulate in the oil. As has been stated, cast iron is very porous, and debris from glass beading the internal crankcase could be hazardous.
