I ask because I intended to go at my bed with 80 grit but its got SO much paint on it I thought it was filler when I first saw some of it flaking off. After poking at it a bit, I realized it was 64 years of paint and re-paint - not filler at all. I'm sure its all lead paint or lacquer, so probably best if I did consider getting it blasted. Opinion?
Yeah I would because the majority of their business is car restoration. That's way i deal with them. Here is an article from a lower mag that made me give them a try and I've been going to them ever since. I bookmark everything.lol You never know when someone may ask for something.
