I'm doing it at home with a blaster and garnet.
Leaves a clean surface and thats what I'm aiming for, for a top paint job.

Roll the truck out onto a plastic sheet and hang another sheet on the opposite side.

Garnet doesn't float in the air and is easy to recover and recycle.

I built a small pressurised sandblaster but my air reservoir was to small, so I recycled a large domestic LPG gas bottle, fitted pressure gauge and pop-off relief valve and blasted like crazy till I ran outta media 15 minutes later.
So, now I got another big domestic LPG gas bottle and now cutting that up to have a larger pressurised media supply, this is never ending, I spose buy a bigger compressor when I bring this master Blaster into service.

Sure tears off the layers of paint though.
