Re: Let's talk RUST
Oh, okay. I wasn't sure. I've heard people discussing that soda blasting is far easier on panels.

Re: Let's talk RUST
From the research I did prior to stripping the DD, soda blasting works well but is a MAJOR pain to get everything clean enough to paint afterwards. It gets everywhere (of course) and raises hell with paint if not thoroughly cleaned

Re: Let's talk RUST
Remember when you sandblast to strip the paint first. Sandblasting is to remove rust, Paint stripper is made to remove Paint.

Re: Let's talk RUST
I did a pair of front fenders for a 31 widebed once. I had to use a torch and putty knife to remove the underside coating before I could sandblast them. I'm guessing it was a thick coat of POR-15.

Re: Let's talk RUST
"MY" opinion: Rust & the effects of rust can never be COMPLETELY removed, but can be treated, so it won't cause problems before you DIE!!
I've even cleaned Zenith carbs, rinsed them off & watched surface RUST form before my very EYES!!! Bill Corroded

Re: Let's talk RUST
If you want to do it correctly like the professionals who have to guarantee their work years after the completion have it blated by a qualified blaster the dustlass blasting is recommended once you have it back, primer it in metal etch primer and epoxi primer then do your body work grinding to bare metal where you need to metal finish. Remember that first coat of metal etch is more important than the last coat of paint.
