Sandblasting the Bed

[Chaparralman1974]

Hey everyone!

Ok, so I am getting ready to move onto the bed in my project. Foolishly, I had to learn the hard way about sandblasting sheet metal....I ruined the hood by having it blasted by someone who didn't know what the were doing. On the bed, I was wondering if I could take a different approach. I was thinking that I could get the bottom and the inside of the bed only sandblasted. I would do the outsides with my SCT and a DA. Given all of the weird contours and such, this would save me a tremendous amount of time and effort. As the bed walls are double layered, do you think it would be ok to do it this way?


The floor needs to be cleaned up anyway so that it can be painted. I will be painting the entire floor black like it was originally. The underside will get epoxy primered (or rustoleum...not sure yet) then followed up with raptor liner.

Thanks, Clay
