I'm prepping my body parts for paint and have most of the old paint sanded off. Is it safe to glass bead blast parts before painting, some areas are just to hard to sand? I assume sandblasting would be to harsh.

sand/bead blasting before painting?
Brian,
I agree that sandblasting might be a bit harsh, especially on the private parts. Use a good quality paint and allow lots of time in a tanning bed for curing, otherwise it will all wash off with your next shower. Don't be afraid to post pic's!
Sorry...I just couldn't resist having a little fun.

Re: sand/bead blasting before painting?
I use a mid size sharp glass to remove paint/rust and I paint that same day.
No problems. ..........lm
