That will take you forever to sandblast with a consumer grade sandblaster/air compressor. Not to mention that you need a proper respirator to sandblast safely. If I were you I would pay someone to blast it or get a couple of flap disks for my angle grinder and do it myself. Two good disks and an hour of your time should take care of it.

I'm not trying to highjack your thread but wanted to post pic's of my recent Brinkmann Cimarron rehab.
Here she is all done.
Felt gaskets
Deflector Plate
Charcoal Basket
Looks great. What are the dimensions/gauge of that baffle? Did you make it?
And what kind of gasket is that on the lid?

Driver- very nice rehab! Where did you get the felt and what is the brand name?

Sandblaster wants $125 to hit the Cimmaron. Seems a little expensive.

way cheaper than buying a compressor that can deliver the constant CFM you'd need and a decent blaster, go for it and don't look back

It's Big Green Egg high temp felt, works really well so far.

I did find it on Craigslist, was down in Bellevue. She was in rough shape but I've got her going again. I appreciate the compliment!

Threw some BBQ paint on her today. She doesn't look half bad.
Next I'll make a baffle/deflector to try and even out temps.
I found some 8"x14" !6 gauge steel at the local hardware.
Q: If I'm able to bend it to a rough L shape, would 6 or 7 inches be enough to redirect heat?
Q" Any tips for bending 16 gauge? Hardware buy said buy two pieces of angle iron and bend it over a table. He also said I can trim it with my grinding wheel. Sound plausible?

Looking good so far. You might want to get some oil on the inside surfaces.

Yep. I oiled it up pretty good.
