We've been busy lately. Some of this media blasting is for our own jobs at Straight Lines Custom Restorations and other parts are for outside customers. Through the photos you will see how nice refinishing work will be now that all the rust, scale, old paint, and debris is removed from these projects. What can we do on your project?

Here's a variety of smaller items we blasted recently. Pictured are gas pump panels, a motorcycle frame and some Jeep parts, and a set of Ford wheels. Media blasting sure speeds up your restoration process and opens up hidden damage you may not be aware of. Call or stop in to visit about your media blasting needs.

We media blasted this vintage John Deere tractor this morning. (Check out all those rear wheel spokes to blast clean.) Shes down to bare metal now and ready for primer and paint! This should be a beauty when finished!

Here's a 1966 Chevelle which we media blasted recently. As is often the case, some hidden damage appeared from underneath the paint and body filler. Being blasted down to bare metal will now give a good foundation to begin the body work process.

We had a few small areas to media blast for some Straight Lines Custom Restorations jobs this week. (Straight Lines is our parent company and we are at the same location.) The first 3 photos are from a 1973 Challenger, the last one from a 1975 GTO.

There's are reasons why you want to media blast a vehicle before a restoration or major repaint. This Olds Cutlass had what appeared to be a pretty nice, recent body repaint. But, upon beginning a couple exterior custom touches, the paint was found to be over multiple layers of old finish, and it would flake off with very little effort. Some deep body filler was also discovered. By media blasting down to bare steel, the metal surface has the correct "profile" (surface texture) to begin the body work process. Also, body filler and hidden rust damage is exposed: all things you don't want hidden under your new paint job. Call or stop in to learn more and discuss your media blasting needs.

Not everything we media blast is complete car bodies. We have done semi-tractor cabs and sleepers, farm implements, yard ornaments, and smaller automotive items.

On this Plymouth GTX, the customer wanted to leave the exterior of the car alone and only have the engine compartment media blasted. Some corossion and years of spray-can underhood painting needed to be removed. Media blasting the entire underhood area was the most cost effective way to clean up the area for refinishing. Straight Lines Custom Restorations sealed, primed, and painted the engine compartment following the blasting process.
