sandblasting a valve cover

[Daxin]

I've searched the forum and found nothing on who recommends a shop for sandblasting. I need to sandblast my valve cover and powder coat it. Does anyone know of any good shops in Calgary?

Thanx

Thanx. I decided to go to Canadian Tires and bought a can of Automotive Paint remover by U-Fix it. It takes time, but its a whole lot cheaper.

dude, you will NOT get as good a finish with that. media blasting would be best, but sand blasting takes off everything. and once the gunk and old paint is gone, a good cleaning and a powder coat will make it look Very Very nice. Do it right is my advice, but its your choice.
