When prepping a car for sandblasting, what is the common thing to do with the aluminum tags in the front trunk and door pillar?
I suppose the second question would be do I acid dip the car or get it sandblasted? |

I acid dipped....
Then por-15 the entire car... Had to dip it twice - the first round we didn't get it cleaned in time and it started to rust again... I've no experience with media blasting. Acid takes it down to it's roots - that's for sure. Sorry I don't have photos handy of the after-bath... but here's how it came out in the end. Ended up selling it to a classic car dealer - his pro photos towards the end.... https://plus.google.com/photos/116912054149...CLGryuPK67yhzwE |
