Anyone know where I can take this header to get sandblasted for a cheap price? I have no idea what sandblasting costs.

Thanks!

Pretty cheap, takes no skill, time or effort. Little to no cost to do it once you have the equipment. Take it to any powder coating shop or some select machine shops do it too. They have a media blaster over at my fathers shop I usually send my parts over to him there and they do it for free.

Its not a problem I will see what I can do. It would probably more cost effective for you to go to a Powder coater. Dont know where you live but you would have to drive to me drop it off and then drive back out to pick it up. I usually give the guy a 10-20$ tip depending on the part/parts I need blasted, so he doesn't mind doing it for me again next time.

I'm not sure many people even use sand anymore. Usually walnut shells, alum oxide, glass bead asst sizes....
