: I'm thinking of having my Grabber hood sandblasted. It's got rust in the usual places (underneath in front and between hood and braces), but it's just surface rust. I'm just wondering if this is something I should do or should I do it the old fashioned way with a wire brush? And the "scoop" inserts... are those pot-metal? Should I take them out first, to prevent pitting? Any input is appreciated.
If it's surface rust, the old fashion way may be best. Then I would clean and prime immediately.
Sandblasting could pit the scoops.
