Reply to "soda blaster conversion kit"

Soda blasting has some good uses but is also lacks some benefits. It will remove paint without attacking the base metal what so ever. Original sand lines in metal will be left. You can do a piston for example without damaging the metal. You can do a carb without disassembling it. Just wash it when done.

Since it does not touch the base metal anything painted still needs a lot of prep work. It will also not remove rust or things like filler.

I had my Pantera stripped with soda then spent a month with a hobby blaster going over ever section. The hobby blaster will not hurt a panel but it also takes forever.

The hobby blaster however did clean the rust and rough up the metal just right for primer adhesion.

Here you can see what was left after soda blasting and the effects of sand blasting after wards:
