I am just in the finishing stage of rebuilding a Farmall Cub. I have completely disassembled the tractor down to the last bolt. I sandblast only the parts that you can either expect to totally clean out the sand afterwords or that will not be bothered by any sand residue. I never sandblast the engine, but get it hot solvent dipped and it looks totally clean when done. Any remaining rust or paint I power wire brush off. I also never sandblast any hydraulic, electrical, or soft metal parts like aluminum. Masking off can also be dangerous. I masked off a hole in a casting once because I didn't want sand in the cavity. I accidently ran the sandblast nozzle over the tape and blew a hole in it and got sand all over inside. I spent a lot of time cleaning afterwards. Roger
