The Role of Sandblasting in Automotive Restoration Projects
Restoring a classic car requires stripping away layers of old paint, rust, and body filler. This process reveals the core metal and makes it ready for fresh coatings. While sanding or chemical stripping can work, they often take more time and may miss hidden areas. Sandblasting offers an efficient, targeted way to clean and prepare vehicles for restoration. AA Sandblasting, founded in 1977 in Fyshwick, has helped many car enthusiasts achieve a solid foundation for painting and repairs. This article explains how sandblasting, including soda blasting, supports automotive restoration and suggests best practices for owners.
