When my son and I rebuilt his 67 coupe years ago we had the underneath blasted. Since then I understand that the art of sandblasting has been somewhat perfected. Can some of you give me some advise or concerns about blasting the exterior of a car, or if it should even be done. Also what type of media?

Don't use sand. Plastic media is one of the alternatives available these days. Try going to the following: http://www.autorestorer.com There are alot of people there with experience and knowhow that you can ask about getting rid of old paint, rust, etc.

I am in the process of blasting my exterior and was sold a baking soda plastic mixture.

It is much smaller and very abrasive. Also it will do very little harm to the underlying steel.

Check into this.......
