in the very early 70's a dr took his pride and joy 67 or 68 rs/ss to a painter i knew to be repainted. it was his grad present from his dad when he finished high school. well the painter sent it to a blaster who destroyed the body. i mean he warped every inch of it. needless to say the doc went batshit crazy . he sued both of them into the stone age. . it had to have every sheetmetal skin on it replaced. believe me if someone has the money they can ruin your butt. he put the bodyshop out of business , cost the owner most everything he had, he put the blasters out of business and ruined them too.

sand sucks for blasting is what my composite supplier told me in the beginning.
