      Austin (or San Antonio) area media blasting or similar

      Anyone know of a good local to me shop that does media blasting or something similar to remove rust (i.e. acid dip)?

      The guy I am taking my Firebird to asked me to ask on here just in case, he said the only place he has used that is good and still in business is in Liberty Hills.

      He said there used to be a great place in Dallas that did blastig and dipping but they went out of business.

      Thanks

      I used LT dustless mobile blasting out of austin. Great guys and I thought the price was very fair. It you have a place for them to blast it, they will do a good job. You will need to put it into epoxy primer of some sort within a day or so to keep flash rust to a minimum.

      Cool, I will keep them in mind, only problem is I dont have a place to blast it, and where I am taking the car for the metal work doesnt have a place either.

      I dont remember the name of the place he mentioned.

      I had the guys at Commercial Services (http://www.austinpowdercoaters.com/) plastic-media blast a set of wheels a few years back. They were reasonably priced and had good customer service.

      Honestly I'm not sure. I remember them having a lot of body parts around and several large blasting and powder coating areas.
