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? |

Both media blasted (dry) and soda blasted (wet) a few cars.
Media is beneficial in that you can mix types Sand for rust & structural areas & plastic or walnut or some other softer less heat generating media for panels & any thin area prone to warping from the heat generated. Soda was interesting in that it cleaned off paint down to bare metal that exposed the sheet steel manufacture markings !! Frget about rust, surface or deep corrosion . Wont touch it. So That is still another task. Never dipped anything. As was commented youd still have to curt open the longs if dipped. |
