What I do is spread some fresh wheel bearing grease on the outside of each seal, under the gear shift boot, and cover the grease and boots with duct tape. Then have the tractor sand blasted by a pro. I have a harbor freight blasting cabinet for parts and it is much more convienient for cleaning off parts than the tank style blaster. I use "Black Beauty" media in it. It is more aggressive than sand. It will cut faster than sand on powder coatings. Supposed to not be toxic to your lungs like silica sand is. I have a 10 gallon size pressure tank blaster. Black Beauty doesn't work well in it because it does not flow as well as sand does. Whatever you decide, you will need LOTS of compressor. The 10 gallon tank requires up to 25 cfm @ 125 psi. I have 2 80 gal 3hp compressors that are rated at 13 cfm @ 90psi. I can run the cabinet non stop and 1 compressor runs constant with the 2nd cycling. I haven't tried to do much with the tank blaster.
