neither is less messy . when it comes to the blasting abrasive that you want to use . that denends on the reason you need to remove the finish . as for having some one do it or doing the job your self . if you have some one do the job for you then all you have to do is drop off the car . you will have no labor that you will have to do . if you do the job your self then you lookng at hours of preping , blasting then all the clean up . then were will you do the blasting ? in your garage ? in your drive way ? blasting a car makes a mess it will cover every thing with blasting abrasive in your garage and if you do it out side in the drive way . it will still get every were ! but media is plastic so water will not wash it away like it will with soda . at my shop i have one of those car tent things . we do the blasting in there . we built a plywood floor then covered it with plastic . the thing about doing some thing like that is cost . it add into the things you have to buy to do the job and your labor time to set it all up . after all is said and doen what are you saving ? to have some one blast a car is only 2k or so . which is a drop in a bucket of the cost when it comes to refinishing a car .
