there is one for about $345 at gasweld apparently, same as the one EKV84US is using ... but it can be gotten alot cheaper than that price!!

Hi 62cruzin,
Had my hole body sandblasted at extreme blast at Heatherbare. Cost me $1500 which included etch priming. Not sure if he is the cheaps in town but he guaranteed he would not stuff my car. I'm happy with the job he done.

Regards
Swivel
P.s. There is photos of my car in MYFBEK

wow ... i remember about 10 yrs ago i got an ek sedan fully blasted for $500 .... unfortunately they said my car was the last one they were going to do because cars arn't worth it apparently ... (panels too easy to warp)

Sammy, thats why i was happy to pay $1500 when he was guaranteeing not to warp panels

thanks heaps guys......i rang around and imperial blasting was the cheapest....cheers for the heads up.......
p.s they now use sodablasting on the large panel such as boot, bonnet and roof to stop warping.......

Hope you only want to strip paint, and not rust, if you use sodablasting.....
