Welcome to the site.
I rented a sand blaster and sand blasted the entire car (exterior & interior). But I ran out of time with the rental (only got 4 hrs including pickup/dropoff) so I used a wire wheel to do the underside. There's not alot of "real" chrome places overhere (atleast close by) so i only brought new chrome where i had too and just cleaned up the rest. But eventually I'll get the rest of my old chrome looking new.

Ask Donny aka dr. Blast. Hope he replies as he is a real professional on blasting. I would like to know how crushed walnuts also compare to other medias.
