Hi, Dan.

Sorry I can't help with the shop selection. But you should know there are plenty of arguments against sandblasting. At a minimum, selection of a softer media often goes far toward reducing problems during and after paint and rust removal. Alternatively you can do much to clean metal yourself without ever picking up a sandblaster by using non-toxic methods that require little attention from you while they work. Although I've blasted many parts over the years, it's a job I rarely do anymore.
