Quick partial disassembly of Weber genesis 1000


 
Oh, and you can get a wide range on prices for blasting. But from what I experienced, you should expect something around $50 for cook box and end caps completely blasted. I have heard quotes as high as $125. Some less that $50 for all three.

It’s pretty rural where I am, I called a nearby place that quoted $80 an hour. Not sure how long it takes to get the end caps cleaned by sand blasting. I’m not as concerned about the cookbox as that I will just scrape out the inside with a putty knife and then the outside seems easier to spray paint after some light cleaning
 
Not getting very far with the angle grinder. Also I checked the parts sourcing list thread and didn’t find replacement bolts and nuts for these end caps. Any stainless steel or black like the original suggestions?

I always repaint and reuse the stock nuts and bolts.

I have done them both ways. Last one I added a cabinet grill SS cookbox shield and replaced all the hardware on the grill with SS including washers w/ the black nylon ones as backers (helps prevent paint getting scratched/nicked), with the exception of the fasteners for the plastic frame end caps. It had a nice look. Small details that added up and when the couple came to pick it up, they loved it.
