I would think a machine shop could handle that?
 
i'd go into any local body shop and expect to get the help i need. or pointed in the right direction. craigslist may be helpful also.

How big of a piece/s are you blasting? There is a guy that has a shop with a good sized cabinet in Gainesville (or at least he did) I think he goes by Mel Lowe on Mud.
 
My entire tub, fenders, hood etc. I don't have a hard top. But pieces too big to fit in a cabinet for sure. I've got just about all disassembled and hoping to get it all blasted so I can start rust repair.
 
I've used a product called evaporust. works wonders. it is non toxic and only harmful to rust. smaller parts and tools u soak in it and larger areas soak a rag in it lay it over what u want to de-rust and cover it in plastic so it stays wet and a day later rinse the rust off. northern tools sells a 5 gallon bucket for i think 90 bucks or so.
 
I think 4wd Toyota owner magazine just had an article on evaporust recently l will have to check that. For my truck I was looking at blasting to get the layers of paint and bondo off to see what's lurking underneath. I started wire wheeling it and quickly realized I'm willing to pay for blasting lol. It's got some rot that has to be cut put and new metal welded in, I want to blast everything and then start on that. Perhaps there is a chemical paint stripper I can use as well not sure will keep checking.
 
Go to your local parts store , pick up a can of Aircraft paint stripper . Just get one spray can of it and see if that works for you . When I stripped one down a few years ago I used it . I also used a wire wheel too , but the tub I was working on had a ton of bondo .
