Ya want to be careful with a really effective sand blaster. the sand
striking the metal can embrittle the metal causing future cracks. Also some
have warned about the heat caused by blasting warping sheat metal. My only
misfortune with a blaster is to blast the toe of my boot, which ruined the
finish but fortunately not my toe.
