Front seat came back from the blaster ready to be upholstered and found a couple of goodies at my doorstep from the Netherlands.

Hi mate, hope you don't mine me asking. I am about to start my own resto for the first time. Is it usual to remove the panels like you did before media blasting? I hadn't thought of that. Is there no chance of anything moving etc? Are you in SA, if so who did you use to blast and prime it as it look like they did a great job? Thanks in advance.
