Rex,
I don't know about you, but I live by the Atlantic Ocean and Chesapeake
Bay. I wouldn't use the sand here, it has too much salt in it. I buy
sand from one of the auto paint suppliers, it is cleaned and steralized
to get salt out. I'd hate to bury salt in the metal and then paint it.
That would be like walking through Hell, looking for a light for your
cigerette.
