DIY Media Blast / Sand Blast Feedback

[tsetsaf]

Looking at equipment to media blast the truck myself. Can anyone provide feedback on the best (and most cost effective) equipment to purchase, tips and tricks, and any miscellaneous feedback?

Seems pretty straightforward as long as you take the time to prep the spray area and body panels first. This is new as I usually remove paint with an orbital sander but am under the impression that media blast will result in a cleaner / straighter surface.

Thanks for the feedback,
Mark
