APOPKA - For classic car enthusiasts, the annual Thanksgiving weekend Turkey Run Nov. 25-28 at Daytona International Speedway is a dream come true---hundreds of acres devoted to showcasing museum-quality classic cars that date from the turn of the century to recent times.
For car owners, the annual Turkey Run is a huge outdoor market for hard-to-get parts, accessories and services. And that’s where American Soda Blast Company plans to shine---literally.
“We’ve established a Turkey Run exhibit that’s going to catch everyone’s eye,” said Michael Young, founder and president of the company.
American Soda Blast technology cleans and strips old paint, and blemishes from car bodies using pressurized sodium bicarbonate.
The process replaces traditional sanding and sand blasting that scores, gouges or warps sheet metal surfaces. The kinder, gentler stripping process is especially important for cars that may be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, Young said.
The biodegradable blast material is a food grade product and won’t harm the underlying metal.
“Sodium bicarbonate is one of the most common compounds found in nature, and does not heat up the metal during blasting like sand will.” Young said.
Scientists used the soda stripping process to restore the Statue of Liberty in the 1980s, Young said. Modern emphasis on green technology solutions has brought the process into vogue.- 30 -

The 18-hour relay – one of many being held throughout the state – consists of those who have cancer, those who are remembering loved ones and others who are fighting back against the disease.
