For the guys who have blasted a full tub:

How much?
How long?
How much undercoating has to be removed before hand to get an effective strip?

I'm starting to think the TurtleGirl project should go this way.

I thought that going too hard-core like your talking about with the knotted wire wheel and angle grinder could actually damage the metal (you can cut grooves in sheet metal with a wire wheel). Plus they make more noise than a drill if that needs to be considered.

None of the areas that have seam sealer are going to be polished anyway, so I don't see where it makes much difference. You'll never get anywhere with a drill and small wire wheel.
