Media blasting
« on: August 11, 2005 - 07:35:47 PM »
What can I expect to pay to have a shop media blast my 70 Challenger? I plan on going to a restoration shop and not just the local monument company.
I have also thought of doing a soda blaster myself and ideas or advice?

I was thinking of soda blasting but really don't know the pro and cons of either.

$1200 would have been my estimate.  It's definately worth it to have the car stripped, but that is a ridiulous price for something that should cost about $400-$800
