    This is one of my favorite things to get the metal blasted and that starts the turning point for going back together!! Great content as always!!!

    Looks like a totally different car after blasting and the quarter repair looks great. Good job.

    Very, very nice!!! I totally support your decision to blast after the major surgery is done for the very reasons you outlined.

    I had my Sunbird blasted once it was fully stripped of all its parts and on the rotisserie. It was well worth the expense to start working to rebuild it from the ground up with clean metal. I think I was in bare steel for 4-6 months. I had a little flash rust but not too much and took care of it with some ospho and red scotch bright.

    Over all the years, I tried all different kind of ways to strip a shell. Come to find out the best way was to send the shell out to be chemically strip it in a tank as it soaks into and get's all nooks and cracks that you can't with any kind of blasting. Come to find out that today it is cheaper too. You send it out to be dipped/ stripped then dripped again in zinc sealer ( I pay extra for that) and in a week or 10 days when it returns, you now have a coating that has soaked into everything that rust can never form on or in if sealed properly when you get it back ( and it's a hell of alot less messy.) I am lucky because the company I use is only 4 hours from me.

    Recently stumbled on your channel and been playing catch up. Had a 68’ back in the 70’s hope to own another some day. Really enjoying your videos. Just curious how do you handle the window channels trim “post” for the clips if you have to re-fab a section of it and need to add the “post”. Looking forward to next video!

  • @jramezcua2824

    Loved this video mann thx for helping me out.I have a question after sand (recycled bottle glass)blasting a car can you go say a week or 2 without treating the metal or it will damage(rust) it quick?
