Media blast...now what ??

[DRJDVM's '69]

I'm getting ready to media blast my car and wanted to get a plan on what to do after I get it back.

I've also been researching epoxy primer vs self etch primer and which is better for bare metal.

I'm planning on using etch primer to seal up the metal, but havent decided on which brand.... I'm leaning towards PPG.

So.... should I run a DA over it ?? Which grit ??

Then how should I prep/clean the metal before spraying the primer ?? Wax and grease remover, paint thinner ??

I want to do this right the first time.......
