• That's what I was afraid of... Pretty bumming there isn't a good medium for blasting, was hoping walnut shell or some sort of plastic beads were a goer.

    Stripped a carbon frame by scraping back in the day, and overdid it; extremely tough to stop at the boundary between carbon and paint. Maybe not such a bummer with unidirectional carbon, but crimes on show with twill.

    The frame I want to strip has brushed metal decals and stripe tape under clear; the prospect of sanding what's left of the clear after the decals have been peeled, without going into adjacent bare carbon is pretty daunting...

  • He does blasting too:

    Obviously it's not as accessible as hand sanding, and I don't suppose that most places that do blasting have experience of stripping a carbon part that is structural, if they have experience of stripping carbon at all that is!
