    Seeking advice for my 1928 Sport Coupe

    Your sandblasting equipment seemed to do a good job on the body. My local media blast guy won't do sheet metal with his dry system. Maybe the difference is the wet process keeps the heat down. What type media did you use on sheet metal? Also, great progress on the subframe and patch panels...

    Seeking advice for my 1928 Sport Coupe

    I think your results came out great especially for a first attempt on real steel. The overall experience will no doubt help when working on the "28.

I don't really want to go into the business but have a higher psi gas engine powered...

    Seeking advice for my 1928 Sport Coupe

    Is this a wet blast system used with a pressure washer by any chance? I'm curious to see what you decided on as I'm at the same stage with the need to remove rust from sub rails and body parts. There are many different opinions on blasting sheet metal to remove rust but I have seen it done...
