Metal Man - I have to disagree - to some degree. While what you describe can happen - it is not guaranteed to.
Why do all the street rodders up here ALWAYS take their cars down to bare metal? Why does the place I take my parts specialize in street rods?
I do know that they only use SAND to remove the rust. Switch to another material when doing just paint.
So - there may be a difference of definition going on - many people use "sand blasting" to cover all types of blasting (bead, soda, etc.).
