I would like to know if anyone around the Houston are has had this done to a body and where it was done. Looking at soda and plastic bead media to have the work done. Thanks for any help
Can not help you on who in Texas. Just a few tips as it sounds like you have never done before. You will find that there are at least three levels (type of plastic balls with different types of small cuts). Paint only, paint/bondo only, and paint/bondo/rust. If available put body on rotisserie. When I have mine done it is rotated about 5 times a day for 2 or 3 days as the little balls fall out of every little place they get in to. Fills one 5 gal painters bucket with them. Its a neat process and does not stretch and distort metal like sand blasting. I would never use the dip method as it removes all factory metal prep, especially in the rocker panels. I live in Fla and have not found a place here yet, so good luck. All my body/paint work is done in Mich. so I have the expense of taking body/doors/fenders, etc. in trailer to there $$$, however, he then seals/primes body and paints. He only charges me his cost from the media blaster, which has been $580 to $680 for an A body.
