Re: Any DIY framecleaners or sandblaster?

I used Awesome Orange from Napa, And a pressure washer. But I like the
idea of the oven cleaner. Then used a pot like the one shown earlier.
What wasn't covered in grease, Was pitted to hel1. If I found more grease
while blasting, I would hit it with a putty knife. Then continue blasting.
Once I got done, Hit the pitted areas with phoscoat, Then a rust inhibiting
primer over everything before painting.

Doing it yourself! = Priceless!

And I reused the sand while doing the frame. I would sift it threw a screen.
