What is the Red coating under it and inside the pig? There are runns inside 
of the Gray coating over the red (like it was dipped in a prod run and 
flipped over to dry).

The Cermatel is NASTY stuff....it has to be practicly ground off, (hand 
sanding would take HOURS!) we used 80Grt then 180, then 300 to shine it up. 
The red comes right off, but the Grey is a serious pain.

Thank's for the info on the coating! I honestly thought it was plain old 
primer. Cool!
