I agree that abrasive blasting is the only way to go. That way you see exactly what you have to work with......there's no hidden issues to pop up later on.

It looks like that guy was using silica sand? If so, do you know if that Eastwood 2K epoxy is compatable with that? Some epoxy primers are not compatable with a silica sand blasted surface, and will lift. It is due to the silica that becomes imbeded in the metal.
Ahhh man...don't be telling me that. Got me all worried. It was Blast From the Past in Lebanon TN and they do tons of vehicles including Powerblock TVs and they didn't say anything one way or the other. They been on TV in the past saying they used crushed glass but I see what you mean. Its been a few months since I've painted it and they've been out in the weather while I worked on other parts and it still seems to be holding well. Do you know of any signs that I should be paying attention too? Thanks for the tip btw.
