Dustless blasting

Anyone have experience with this? Pros/Cons?

My tractor is getting uglier and uglier and I want to paint it up. The sheet metal will go to a body shop--I suck at body work.

The tractor in the video is a John Deere but the video is a nice presentation.

by dustless blasting, you are referring to wet sandblasting correct?

a buddy recently bought a water sandblasting unit on a tandem trailer and he loves it. He gets all kinds of work from taking graffiti off buildings, to taking paint and primer off decks and fencing, and he paint prepps lots of cars and
trucks and tractors with it too. He loves it and says his customers are happy. It is more abrasive then pressure wash alone, but obviously not the dust of sand blasting. And know what the kicker is? He says that sandblasting cars and
sheet metal will warp and distort the sheet metal from the heat but the dustless blasting is cool so the sheet metal panels and hoods and fenders stay their correct shape.
 
I will never sandblast another tractor.
My son water blasted a Case LA for me and we taped up everywhere we could.
Have to take the engine completely apart and pressure wash the sand out of it.
Never again.
Also saw a G Allis dry blasted one time and sand got in everywhere on it also.
