We will remove the old paint and I would like to hear your recommendations on what to use, dry (walnut shells, glass beads (rust removal), soda (Sodium Bicarbonate), sand, (various grits, this is most likely the last method to use) or dry ice. The option we lean to is wet blasting, since we want a unit anyway.
Maybe a link is here somewhere already.
