[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 215606, member: 1523"] Bassblaster, I looked at your build and I think you had access to either a good blaster setup (to do a Kenworth farme) or thin paint, possibly both. Your blast job turned out very well for 15 minutes of effort and I think steelflex would hold to it. It's been my experience when blasting that some of the media stays embedded in the metal causing most paints to lift sooner or later. I think a mickey mouse blaster vs. layers of material, or even a good heavy duty blaster against layers of paint on thin material won't turn out very well. [/QUOTE]
