Wow! Those came out quite nicely. I'd like to see how the rest of the interior plastics come out. Good idea.

getting there guys, I began blasting the rest of the panels and the gun started clumping up.......any hints on getting a steady stream of media from a sandblaster would be appreciated.....and yes, I've done a google. It seems to be intermittent - works fine for a few strokes then clumps up.....

Could it be building up moisture in the line? Every time I've tried sand blasting, I would have a similar problem. But that's using a siphon feed piece of crap, not a pressure blaster.
What type of media are you using?

I'm using the siphon feed as well.....tried making a venturi pickup tube......worked for a while then went back to blowing fresh air......annoying....I started off using a fine grit and have moved to medium due to some of the panels I'm cleaning up had been painted a couple of times and they're baked on nice and hard.....

In the past I've seen interior parts covered in vinyl or fabric, and not for nothing, it looked like crap.
I think the fact that this wrap is thin, it covers well and looks natural.
