Paint stripping paint can be just as bad, a lot of times even worse after a thorough blast of fresh water, paint stripping residue stays in the cracks, when you go to shoot the car the blast on the cracks blows it out and can cause the paint to buble if not adhere right. Paint stripping even done right is very risky I choose to stere clear from it. When I sandblast I either use a fine grit, or backing soda, I generally dont go to bare metal. Just to a point where a good DA sander can pick up the rest in a couple days of sanding. I appreciate your comments but I just had to put my ten cents worth in. Also the distance affects whether your gonna blow holes in it, and also to me tells ya just how good the metal is in your body. Later.
