    Soda Blasting is pretty cool. It takes paint only off. It will leave the metal so smooth that you think someone sanded it off. It doesnt remove rust. You can soda blast right over glass,rubber trim, and chrome. Since its a alkaline product it neutralizes any acid on the metal...you can hose it off with water and it wont rust. I've seen it done... it does not rust... The media is alot more expensive than sand but it also does not warp the metal..hope this helps, Ed
