yeah I was using a little sand blaster for a while and it was slow going. and you get sand and shit everywhere. Plus the damn nozzles kept getting cut open and needed replacing.
stripping the whole car sucks balls. I'd say best bet would be unbolt everything and then take it to a sandblaster. It'll only cost $200-$300 I think. If you really want to do it mega cheap, then instead of using an angle grinder, try to get a variable speed sander/polisher. Turn it down to about 1000rpm and it won't get hot enough to warp panels. The big flat sections are easy enough but the little crappy corners and such are real pains.
My brother used to work for an auto body place. he said they just sandblasted then sprayed a hi fill primer (2pac of course) sanded it a bit then put the top coat on. Couldn't be easier.
Tim.
