Title: Sandblasting Post by: on November 28, 2004, 11:06:12 pm I am in the process of restoring a Vendo 81. The shell of the machine is in good shape, without rust and it was re-painted about 15 years ago. Is it recommended that I sandblast the machine all over again, or should the body shop simply work-on the small dents, sand, prime and paint? I want to do this the right/best way...just not sure if sandblasting is the best way to go.
Thanks for any help/input. Title: Sandblasting Post by: MoonDawg on November 29, 2004, 12:34:59 pm If you have a good paint surface, it probably has good adhesive and should make a fine base-coat. However, stripping or sandblasting is a good idea inside your lettering area because the build-up of paint here leaves you with shallow looking letters.
