I cannot provide a personal recommendation to these guys, but someone recommended them to me years back when I was talking about trying DIY abrasive blasting. Located in Houston.

Thanks Warren.

The sand that I used over ten days ago and
cleaned up with the shop vac is still
showing up all over the jeep.

I suspect the driveway is full of it.

I'm not liking this stuff.

Nope. Mostly perfected the easy part...............disassembly. I enjoy following WillysMJeep, though. Hope Wes doesn't retire from running the site, as he's got the PhD on this stuff.
