best media to use to strip a frame?

[XxMurdocxX]

I stripped an 85 tri z down to the frame yesterday. My plan is to get the frame, swingarm, and engine powdercoated. My question is which media would be the best to strip the paint and a little surface rust off the frame? I have an eastwood 50lb media blaster so i can save some coin doing it myself. Also im debating on keeping it stock colors (yellow and black) or going with a modern blue and silver theme. What would you do?

My bucket says Garnet abrasive 80 grit and its has been doing a great job.

What brand do you use?

I would call your powder coating shop and see what they recommend, Different medias leave different surface textures and the powder may stick better to a certain surface.

i used baking soda works great cheap too safe to use on all metals

The shop im using reccomends a 60-80 grit glass blasting media so im just going to go with that.
