Default Sand blasting question

Hello SS,
What is the going rate to pay someone to sand blast and prime a bare vehicle frame?

I have the halftrack frame stripped down to rails and cross members. Had planned to blast it myself, don't really have the time and our weather has been wet and cold to try this outside.

Thanks, Karl

its about $100 an hour or about 750-1000 to do your frame. I am located in new jersey by philly. 3 hour ride from you

Default sand blasting

Hello SS,
Found a local company that uses portable equipment, blasted the frame and winch bumper $325.
Used our track loader to flip the frame over so they could easily blast both sides.
Had to work fast to prime the frame before dark, hope to apply a coat or two of OD tomorrow.
