# Is there any issue with field painting HLMR or VEB sliding bearings?

## Field painting HLMR or VEB sliding bearings

We recommend painting in a shop/facility setting. This ensures no coating is placed on the disc, stainless, or PTFE.  Also ensures that the stainless steel and PTFE are not damaged when shot blasting the structure.
