Wanted: Sand or Bead Blasting in Tucson
I have a pair of used Heddman headers I want to get bead or sand blasted so I can shoot some paint.
A guy I talked to at a shop said he wanred $200 to sandblast and $400 to Ceracote. I Must've sounded like a greenhorn on the phone. I just wanna shoot a couple of cans of white stove paint on them like Smokey Yanuck.

Re: Wanted: Sand or Bead Blasting in Tucson
Reach out to J Cordova Sandblasting, (520) 800-9842, 5255 S Swan Rd Tucson, AZ 85706. They are located east of Alvernon behind the power plant on Irvington. Used them to blast my Nova and they where very reasonable. Not sure if they are still around or not. If they are not try Arizona Surface Prep located on Alvernon, south of Golf Links. You could also try Capital Metal Finishing they are south of 22nd off of S 2nd and E 25th, used them for some chrome work, but they offer other services.

Yeah, Thanks.
The guy at Cordova was cool. When I mentioned the $200 quote I'd gotten, he laughed, and said some guys try to retire off their first job. He said he'd shoot my headers for $40. Same day service. I still have to get the Drivers Side unit loose, but now I know where to go.

Re: Wanted: Sand or Bead Blasting in Tucson
Glad that you found a Great source for your header project.
I have a Friend that lives close to me. His business is close to home also. I have done my small blasting myself in the past. Just to set-up to do a project like yours for myself, Is now more Cost effective to let my friend handle it. The media and recovery of it is the big issue.
