Welcome to the forum.

I haven't got a clue about your question.

However, I bet someone will be along that can give you an answer.
This forum has just about anything you would want to know about smoking and smoking equipment.

Well I cant help much with the pipe burner but as to the sandblasting if like most you will do a hot burn and then spray inside with water the steam will do wonders to clean out residues from the build. This is even done with manufactured commercial cookers. If the out side is clean and free of oils that would prevent high heat paint from sticking I would think a good power wash and drying will surfice. Hope this helps.
