I normally use grinder and wire brush, but the area is to small, even for a drill and wire brush. I normally use nitromorse but working inside, I don't want to go to the sand blasters are there any other methods/products.

Nitromorse fine, if there arer not too many nooks and crannies...eg underside of Vespa headset where it can get lodged in the corners.

Is there something in this: http://www.aircooledtech.com/tools-on-t ... a_blaster/ method, maybe with a different media eg fine sand?

Ive just had some panels done here, not the cheapest but as i didnt want a sandblasted finish on the steel, they look great.
