General about sand blasting
All corrosion on the panel must be removed before painting. Sand blasting is a very good way of achieving this especially for deep rust damage.
During sand blasting aluminum oxide is sprayed with a very high pressure onto the damaged area which gives a bare metal area.
The advantages of sand blasting are that areas that are otherwise difficult to access can be reached and that there is a smooth transition between metal
and paint. Sand blasted surfaces also provide a good base for both tin filler and painting.
Volvo stocks a complete sand blasting unit (9986410-0), with a number of different nozzles.
