Keith,
I blast and powder coat or paint most of my frames. If you do your own blasting there is not additional cost. I was giving ideas on how to keep cost to a bare minimum and still have a pump that is clean, painted, and looks presentable without spending $$$$$. Most frames are cleanable and were originally red oxide primed (tokheim) or some industrial paint.
Its much more labor intensive to blast an angle frame than flat sheetmetal and adds to overall cost without alot of benefit.
