Default Paint situation

A couple of body / paint shops state, that you can’t paint over lacquer - it will not accept any thing on top except lacquer and you can’t even purchase lacquer. It’s off market - government / league issue. A couple of shops want to grind and sand it down to bare metal, then prime / paint. I have a good reputable sand blaster company near here, and they have done many vehicles. I sure, it would be less expensive and a savings of labor time, but some of the body shops claim - they could warp / bend the metal sand blasting. I don’t see how or any problems, sand blasting, plus it would save a lot of labor time. The car is in good solid condition - no rust. Anyone’s thoughts regarding this issue ?
