I have restored several cars over 40 yrs. I only used a blaster once. That was enough for me. I was blasting the chassis of my '69 Chevelle SS 396. I forgot and left my wallet in my back pocket. I was wearing to long tail shirts that day. When I finished and was removing my clothes I pulled my wallet out. Every nook and cranny inside it was filled with the blasting media.

If you blast stuff while it's still attached to the car vs. in a cabinet. All that dust and debris will wind up in every nook and cranny. When you come along to paint it at 60 PSI, etc...all that crap will get blown out and around into your fresh paint.
