Marty, when media blasting a body or panels care has to be taken or the heat
of the stripping will warp the panels and depending on the media it can pit
the surface too. Baking Soda is pretty safe, as are a couple of others as long
as you take it slow and keep the pressure down. But for heavens sake DON'T
use sand on anything you want to be straight or have a nice finish on. The
biggest problem, in my opinion, is people get in too big a hurry and use too
coarse a media with too high air pressure. The combination of which will leave
you
doing more work that stripping the paint with a brush on chemical & scraper.
