Default Paint shops in Northwest

I am looking for PIREPS on paintshops in the Northwest that have extensive
experience with pressurized airplanes. I am interested in those that use
either particle blasting or chemical stripping.. Any pricing info (either
shop rate or what a particular airplane cost to paint) would be appreciated
too. Thanks in advance!

Is blasting ever sand these days, or have plastic beads taken over? Dry ice?

Ok, when you say "particle blasting," what do you mean? I checked Google and
they were all over the map.

To remove paint from aluminium they are using either glass beads or walnut
shells.
