A.A.,

I have sandblasted several tikis in the past. It creates kind of a rustic look by raising the grains. Some people really like this look. Unfortunately, often you still wind up sanding. I am not a big fan of the raised grain look and wind up still spending lots of time sanding. I would recommend using a large/ powerful sandblaster, otherwise the sand just seems to bounce off the tiki.
