    blasting compound

    What is the "norm" for sand blasting chassis parts. Is black beauty still used or bead blasting compound?

    I like Black Beauty, which is ground up coal clinkers.
    It leaves a nice surface for the paint to adhere to, and it's the fastest for removing paint and rust.
    I would never use silica sand again. I'd use glass beads for pistons, but would rarely blast pistons.

            I had my frame chemically stripped, when I picked it up I walked past it thinking who's nice new looking frame that is, It was mine! You could see the forming lines in the metal, epoxy primer and good for 100 years :-)

              Tractor supply sells coal slag in fine and medium. Works very well and cheap.
