http://metalrehab.com/ is in Arlington. They use a biodegradeable product for dipping process. It is DFW area, but it is all I know of in the area. Rick Kirkendall(sp?)("rickk" is his handle) used them for his stunning white second gen Camaro.

If you search the discovery channel web site under the overhaulin section...goto Lance armstrongs poncho. The media blasting guys shop is listed there somewhere and they are in north austin.

Gene, you're not missing anything. The blaster isn't listed on that page anyway.
http://www.dacmediablasting.com/ is in Irving (between Dallas and Fort Worth), if that's vaguely close.

Call Larry at 512-836-9322. He does the cars for Custom Car Crafters who painted Lance's car for Colvin. Larry quoted me $375 to blast the bottom of my 67 Camaro, and I think $1700 or so for a full car (inside fenders, doors, trunk, etc). He is a fun guy to talk to as well!
