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 used some plumbing plugs to seal off the heater tubes. Got them from Home Depot. They are used to seal pipes and come in different diameters. You turn the wing it and they expand to fit the hole. After the walnut blast I cleaned for hours. Blowing air with the compressor while running the value at the same time. I haven’t found any sand since but it might just be sealed in the paint.
