Agreed - it's a blast (groan). One thing I'm sure most are aware of but I wanted to pass along anyway - use good ventilation and/or a properly fitted respirator when using silica sand for blasting. Jim's got the right idea. Silica can become imbedded in the lungs and cause the formation of scar tissue which can lead to a respiratory disease called silicosis. This is nothing to mess with, and will severely limit your enjoyment of your Mopars.

I kept checking craigslist and one turned up. Ran a big fan and pipe directly from the cabinet to the outside; no mess at all. Flip on a couple of switches and presto, what was old is new again. - Jim Jim Altemose, Long Island, NY '63 Polara 500 (Max Wedge) '63 Polara 500 (383) '65 Belvedere I (Street Wedge) '71 Bronco On Sun, Jun 13, 2010 at 9:54 PM, Brian Safford <hzf9vv@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > I am rebuilding the front suspension on my '62 Dart and want to clean > all the parts up and then rattle can them with that VHT black epoxy > primer.
