Re: Sandblasting and powder coating?
Sandblasting is messy all over...the place you do it,anywhere near the dust can settle,and YOU. Anything too big for the cabinet I go ahead and pay for the service. It's up to you,but the way I see it,your decision should be based on how much you want to spend and what level of quality you want for the truck,overall. Wire wheel/spray paint is the cheapest and does the trick just fine. Any spots with rust you can use rust converter on. Sandblasting cleans it right up,but gotta hope it doesn't blow through. I have a guy I have sandblast what I paint (or have him prime or paint) and I have a powder coat guy I have blast and coat.
