Has anyone used soda blasting as a media to remove old paint from a fuse. I would use a sander but it is near impossible to remove paint from the clusters. I have heard mixed reviews about how the some residue from the sodium bicarbonate stays on the fuse and is difficult to remove. However soda blasting is more gentle than sand blasting. I would prefer to use plastic beads however there is no place near me that has the equipment or facilities. Any advice/experience would be appreciated.
