I was wondering if Media blasting the body would be the best option for a pan off restoration?

I have also had great results with soda blasting. it cost a little more but seems to clean a little better

oh alright, not to bad, and what about some kind of rust inhibitor after the media blasting, do most media shops do that on site, or is that some totally different subject that I would have to get taken care of?
