Soda Blasting

Can someone tell me what a fair price would be to have the hull of my 20 soda blasted?

p.s. It does have bottom paint on it.

If I remember correctly I had my 23' done about 3 years ago and it was about $500-600. I just blasted my 20' with a Farrow System blaster (crushed volcanic rock) and it did an awesome job. I think the farrow was alittle easier on the glass but still toke it off easily. I did all the work, so I could not tell you a price for the farrow system.

I just had my Bertram 20 hull done using the Farrow process.
It had lots (years...) of bottom paint on it. Blaster actually though it might have been epoxy barrier coated in the past, because he came upon some hard grey material. He had started to only work down to this layer, but broke through and found more bottom paint. In reality, some poor sap had paid for a barrier job but only had some epoxy slapped on top of the old bottom paint.

I had it done and it was $480 earlier this summer.
