Hi all,
I'm looking for some sand blasting advice. What media do you recommend, and how can I avoid warppage? What do you recommend to coat the sandblasted metal with? I purchased a 20lbs HF sand blaster and I'm planning on doing this myself |

The shop I sent my car to had it soda blasted and this is what it looked like when it came back to them.
They swear by this method. FWIW I have had cars sand blasted before. The finish was far rougher and there was sand everywhere forever..  |
