On this one I used 80# on a DA sander for the majority of the exterior. A little chemical stripper in some of the hard to reach areas in the door jambs and around the wiper shafts.
I like to use a media blaster (plastic media) who is nearby but he has about an 8 week back log so I did this one in shop. I'm going to restore a 356 the first of next year and will have that car dipped as it will be a high budget restoration. I haven't used a "soda" blaster as yet but don't see anything wrong with the process.
