Re: Checking in properly
Great work on your truck.
That looks good. So you like the dustless blasting? It looks impressive.

Re: Checking in properly
The dustless blasting is water over different silica or other media types depending on what they're doing it on. The water keeps it cool so you dont get the warpage..I was very impressed and for the price I couldn't have sanded it down any cheaper.took them a little over 2.5hrs versus a few months getting all the books and crannies.
