I've been wondering about local-to-me soda blasting, but never had the motivation to actually do a search. Guess what was cleaning the shop across the parking lot...

Very cool. Now you need to empty your shop and let them go at that floor. Or just light a match and wait for the oil to wick out and burn. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

We don't use oil in CA. We use happiness and love to keep everything running 'groovy'.

We had that type of company come by and do a 356...
It was about three hours...all done.
The next rain storm all evidence was gone.

They also carry sand for the tough spots....

there has to be a easy to read grit chart out there somewhere- where does soda fall in comparison to other options?

This site lists them in order. Mild at the top, more and more agressive as you go down.

Just had a set of wheels done. Excellent results. The guy was saying it will keep bare metal from rusting for a long time. But, you'll need to wash it off with a warm soapy water prior to any type of paint work.

WOW! I just drove by their building this morning. Had no idea that's what they did. I'll have to stop by there this weekend.

Thanks
