As bad as you don"t want to do it, clean the paint off the shaft. I say that because the thickness of the paint might not seem to be all that great, but a shaft with 15 to 20 thousands plus of movement within a bushing might as well not be bushed at all. In a steering wheel type situation that slop at the bushing is magnified the further away you get from the bushing. In other words .020 at the bushing might be 1/8" or more by the time you get to the end of the shaft where the wheel is attached. In the end it all comes down to the old saying about "Anything worth doing is worth doing right". If you "cheap" out and take the easy way and don"t clean the shaft off, your beginning the life of the "new" bushing with probably 10 years plus of wear on it. Not to mention the sloppier the shaft is within the bushing the more it can beat and bang around, and the more it beats and bangs around, the faster it will wear out.........Just my .02..
In answer to your question though, yes, your reamer will work just fine as long as it will get the bushing cut out to the size your going for.

There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
