BEST: The serious auto restorers use the large chemical bath facilities. Complete frame or auto body can go in there. No sand in any crevice. But only major cities have them.
Better: Sandblast. The tin on a tractor will take the most severe blaster out there. Small cities have comercial blasters that will do the job for you. Get the tires off, duct tape anything you don't want blasted (0r remove) and trailer the tractor to his location.
Good: 7 inch body shop grinder, followed up with 4 1/2 inch elec angle grinder with 40 and 80 grit flap wheels. Them liquid metal prep.
Anytime you go down to bare metal you need to prime it immediately. Basic primer OK if you are indoors, and will paint within a week.
Epoxy primer required if working outdoors, or painting is to be done later than a week.
Filling for smoothness on tin,to be done with primer-surfacer over the epoxy.
