Bob...
    IMHO sand is great for suspension parts, trailers, etc. 
    For bodywork you have to turn the pressure down quite a lot or you may 
ripple the surface. You also run the risk of having sand particles lodge in the 
metal and migrating out through your paint at a later date.
    For any rotating parts or blocks, transmission cases, differential 
housings, I still prefer NOT to use sand. It reminds me too much of horror 
stories 
aboutsand in crankcases,differentials, etc.
    I'm new to the list as of 7/18...yours is the first post I have received.
    Cheers!
