I'm still having strut woes on the ass-dragger so it's Billy-time.
I took these over to my soda blaster guy and look what I got back. I just wanted to show the miracles of soda one more time here. Spindles were not taped off. Shock shafts were not taped off! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) Nothing like factory metal to work with... just amazing results. The smallest of stampings, codes and markings come back to life. Almost a shame to repaint them... |

I used to have a 36 gallon portable tank compressor, but its duty cycle didn't allow the nearly continuous running needed for sandblasting. I replaced it with the Home Depot special 60 gallon tank. I used that for sandblasting all the remainder of my Corvette parts. I would guess that soda blasting has similar requirements.
Only major issue I have is moisture... I put a water trap at the end of my main hose and sandblast with a short whip hose connected to it, and I still have to clear out the water a couple of times in a blasting session (east coast humidity FTL). |
