I was watching a car restoration show recently ("Dream Car Garage" on Speedvision) and they mentioned something called "soda blasting." Using Baking Soda as the media, this method is supposed to be l

Soda blasting versus sand blasting to avoid warping body panels is a little bit overboard for an MG Midget. I'd say that soda blasting is more for delicate aluminum or thin hand made panels... The Mi

Many sand blasters aren't used to working on thin sheet metal. They're used to working on stone and heavy iron. Cosequently they use to coarse a sand, too high a pressure, and work one area too long

I respectfully disagree. I have seen door skins, fenders, bonnets and boots all given surfaces resembling a pond surface on a breezy day by blasting with sand. For body panels use soda, crushed walnu

I understand soda blasting is also better if you don't want to etch the metal at all. Apparently it removes the paint and will not remove/scratch any metal. Lots of restorers use it for the old/expen

I think the confusion is based on the word "sand" in sand blasting. If you go to a Auto Store and ask for "sandblasting" sand they usually give you coal slag without even a comment. Few people use ac

The only problem with this theory is that the coal slag is going to have a high silica content, depending on its origin. Western coal slag will actually be about 60-70% silica oxide. David (ex coal c

Well, I did mention that the silica, which would be a major component of the coal slag, would be in the oxide form. Coal slag is usually bottom coal ash that has exceeded its melting point. And as ox
