When I'm blasting I make a "tent" around the work with a tarp. It keeps the media from going EVERYWHERE and allows you to reuse some of it (if you screen it first). This shouldn't have to be stated, but cover yourself up well! Especially your face, and something covering your ears isn't a bad idea either. That stuff will get into everything. The tarp won't completely keep it contained, but it will help for motorcycle-sized projects.

Soda blasting has its place as a cleaning method. But am doubtful about using it as a viable "paint remover" option, because it's abrasive power isn't aggressive enough.
