[TR] Sandblast or not

In my experience any media that will not strip paint, ie, crushed walnut shells, plastic bead blasting, etc. will simply bounce off of grease and/or old undercoating which is ineffective and messy.  Even aggressive stuff like Black Diamond will have a tendency to do the same, and will certainly eat paint when it gets through.  If your frame is immovable and you prefer to stay in the garage, Kano Laboratories makes a superior degreaser that can be purchased by the gallon.  These are the same folks that make AeroKroil, the best penetrant I've found, ever.  Have your tarp or drip pans ready and brush away.  I've used old wooden paint paddles and plastic bondo spreaders for removal.  It takes time, but may fit your application.
