Anyone know were I can either rent a bay to sandblast or have someone do it? I have 8 control arms that I need the powdercoating stripped off and using a grinder is taking wayyy too long.

Consolidated Compressor - Reasonably cheap... Go on a nice day, make sure you're wearing coveralls and have a roll of duct tape to close up all the holes...

Don't be surprised when you see you're using a fire hose :)

Consolidated is great for that kind of stuff, Very easy.

If you are new to blasting, you are starting with the right kind of parts (ones that can't be warped). They usually ask you if you know what you are doing before you are setup, if not, they will give you what you need. (I usually bring my own gloves and spare dustmask (for underneath helmet)

Just take your stuff to the bench and line it all up, put on your helmet, turn on your air,wait a couple of seconds, blast.
