Well I've been getting my cars blasted for years and never had a issue so I can speak on that. The place I go does cars all over California its most of their business so they can't go around messing up peoples cars or they will be out of business. They use a very fine sand that looks like powder its so fine. Also I use SPI epoxy primer and they will not honor the warranty if you soda blast the metal. Soda blasting leaves a residue that does not help adhesion. I can only go by my experience and I have had zero problems with media blasting.
Dan here is an link to an article that was done on the place I recommended, read it you may like it. It was one of the reason I chose them because I don't know anybody that put time, love and money in the cars like the lowrider crowd.lol The chrome alone could buy a house in some states.lol
