Hey Everyone:
I just lucked into an old Santa Maria Style Grill (been wanting one for a long time). It is a bit rusty, and I need to clean it up a bit. I can have it sandblasted, but my question is about sealing it up afterwards. Should I just coat it in oil (crisco), or should I powder coat it? Does the powder coating hold up to the pit temps?
Also, Does anyone have any ideas on air holes and rain drains for the pit? I will most likely be making it out of the typical grey cinder blocks.
I attached a pic of the grill itself. (the uploader rotated the pic...sorry)
Any help will be appreciated very much!
