Keith,

I tried to think about just what you may have meant. Assuming the best,
go ahead and sandblast the panels BEFORE you do the body work to those
panels!

The sandblasting will confirm the quality of the panels expecially if
you already have pitting or complete perforations in the panels. Then of
course you will then be able to weld in new metal and finish the repair
with body filler.

After doing all of this, you can then consider whether you should then
sandblast! 8-)
