Sandblasting
March 29th 2006, and its starting to look unlikely that I'll have this car back
together in time for Eurofest in May. I was really
busy with work and other stuff, and found it very difficult to find time to
work on the car.
Anyway, I found an industrial sandblaster in Castledermot who was willing to take off the remaining epoxy from my frame for me. The first 2 photos below show the various suspension parts from the DeLorean before sandblasting, and the rest of the pictures show how I got them back 2 days later after sandblasting - needless to say I was very happy!!

The manufactures claim that it
will never scratch, chip or peel! It’s so strong that if some of it gets on
your fingers, you have to wait a few weeks until your skin eventually replaces
itself naturally, as it will absolutely never come off... Sounds strong enough
for this project!
I bought a tin of it, and painted
all my freshly sandblasted suspension parts with it. You can see a picture of
the tin below, along with the results of painting the suspension pieces with
it.
