JT,

That all depends on the media and CFM, visible painting surfaces you =
blast with a soft media (crshed walnut shell) at a lower cfm. The the =
surface is not marred.

  Are you planning on removing all the black undercoating crap too, Ron? =


  In regards to the sand-blasting, I read somewhere (and will definitely =
double-check) that exterior areas that will be seen should NOT be =
sandblasted. Something about marring the surface shape?? Can anyone =
corroborate that?=20

  I was definitely planning on going the POR-15 route.=20

  Was it Alan who said to get the paint on quickly? I assuming by =
"paint" hea meant the POR-15 top coat, correct?=20

  Thx, JT=20

    I don't know about POR 15; never used it. But, in my typical =
cheapass way, I have found and
    effective, off-the-shelf solution: Rustoleum Rusty Metal Primer is =
absolutely the dogs bollocks
    for sealing metal and preventing the spread of rust. I think it has =
fish oil or something (ever
    see a rusty fish? Well there ya go).

    I had bought a beater Rabbit for a girlfriend some decades ago, it =
had some surface and other
    minor rust. I just wire brushed it off and put some RMP on it. On an =
exterior surface, that rust
    didn't peek through for over two years, probably longer since I =
sorta dumped her and the car went
    too, and I haven't seen hide nor hair of either one since (nor that =
$3000 she owes me...well,
    that's another story).

    I'm telling ya - when I get my MkI, out come the carpets and down =
goes RMP in any questionable
    areas. Underneath too. Topcoat with other Rustoleum stuff iff'n you =
want.=20

    My $0.02 says that common sense prevails...this is a cheap and very =
effective solution IMO.

    HTH
