Back in '08-'09, I had my TR3 body tub and frame blasted at a local =
powder coating company. $300 each. They blasted every square inch with =
crushed garnet. The tub was stripped of every bolt-on part. In two =
different visits, I set up both items on my makeshift engine stand =
rotisserie, with custom attachments, to make it a lot easier for them =
and the best outcome. Worth every penny and more.=20
Skip this part if you can and have a company do this work. You might =
even consider a mobile unit come to you. Different media can be used =
depending on paint or rust. Special care has to be taken on body parts, =
not to warp them, but if the person has a little finesse, any harm can =
be avoided.=20
The important part of good blasting is high CFM from the compressor. If =
you don't have enough CFM, you'll be working way too hard for way too =
long. =20
