Sorry for not getting back on this earlier, this forum does not notify me when there is a response or question to my post. I media blasted the frame and all of the smalls myself. I have a blast cabinet as well as a large canister blaster. I used black diamond medium blasting agent available at places such as TSC or other farm supply store. I had the body blasted at a company in a neighboring town. I do not know what they used, but I was not comfortable blasting the large panel areas due to the possibility of warping them. They charged $550.00 for the body panels. Thanks for your interest. jlp
