Unless, like Team 11, you powder coat and bake the parts yourself.
Then you only see that if the part was thrown together or made on the road.

You do need to consider the hole sizes if you allow the powder to get into the holes.

Team 11 uses sand paper, grinds, sand blasts and masks parts as preparation.
