Media Blasting Texas area Chemical debris removal

#1 Post by Roy Smalley »

If you are looking for quality media blasting, parts tumbling from bolts to cars, you might consider SOT (Sandpaper of Texas)
1681 Firman Drive Richardson, Texas75081 Phone - (972) 707-2760. Very professional and careful. Used them for several years.

If you have parts or a car that can only be cleaned by immersion, take a look at HTC in the vendor list. They have a temperature controlled oven to bake the paint off, followed by immersion, followed by rinse and protective coating. Used them on train wrecks and no problems...we do open door seams, disassemble hood and deck lids, fender well wire and so forth.

Roy, are you saying that after the immersion cleaning, you must take off skins, fender wires, etc? Can the wires ever be reinstalled into original sheet metal, or would they be rolled into new metal? What I have seen, between Ohio rust and indiscrimate grinding, would leave the edges too thin to re-roll.

Unwrap wires before. If they make it you are good; that is the only way to know if there is rust about to rear up.

Each car dictates what you should do, which process to use. There is no single prescription.
