Blasting is better than all other paint remaoval systems. I have seen cars
that were dipped and after being painted and all cherry, have some of the
"stuff" leak out from a body seam and ruin everything!
     Blasting can be done with all sorts of mediums, Plastic, Walnut shells,
Copper slag, Baking soda, and sand. The paint/rust on the car should be a
factor in determining which one is used. Sand works great, but the skill and
concern of the blaster is what makes it it evil or not. Keep this in mind.
