there are weldable primers that allow to be applied before all the welding and grinding cutting operations, they do not burn, they do not stink and they do not prevent the welding

epoxy priem it so metal does not rust, then grind off areas where welding is going to be done

[@fibrenewtidewater1863]

I have to ask, as a small business owner, what kind of liabilities there might be? If the media is recycled bottle glass, and paint is being removed, how is that all cleaned up at the end of the job? Can a child with bare feet run across that driveway? I'm not too familiar with that type of blasting media, but I know what having fiberglass insulation come into contact with skin feels like. Are the micro-chips of paint left to wash down the nearest storm drain? Again, I'm not trying to be critical, but if you stop to think that a bunch of contractors building a home are required to erect those fabric dust barriers - for digging dirt, what must the requirements for blasting paint with glass media be? I would imagine that at least a portable shelter with a capacity for containment would be required by most municipalities. I have 2 old cars, and this system looks awesome, compared to the time it takes to do only a small bit of sanding. I think that as a homeowner, if someone didn't mind having the residue melt in with their backyard, they might get away with it, behind a privacy fence. But I would really be careful offering this as a customer based service, without the capacity for containment and disposal.

[@NZHorizones]

For those that have never stripped a car before in there own driveway this was a symphony for the eye, I could of sat here for the whole hour and watched those coatings wash away. I certainly want this machine.

[@chrisworth2102]

[@TralfazConstruction]

In 1989 I dropped off my wife's car which was being repainted by the dealer under factory authorization for failure of the clearcoat and underlying paint. A little more than an hour after Ieft the dealer I had to go back to get the garage door opener from the sun visor. The two-man crew working on the car had it 80% to the bare metal where they were located in the corner of the body shop and after seeing this video I believe that they using a process similar to what's shown in this video. My wife, notorious for keeping her vehicles for a long time, admired the paint on her '88 Bonneville SE for the next ten years or so and the finish on that car was an outstanding feature since the dealer did an impeccable job on the repaint.

[@markallen9389]

The video might say dustless but believe me it’s not! I had my 2015 F150 bed done using this method and I didn’t pay $1000.00. Look at the ground in the video that’s the mess that’s left. This method does a great job and I’m happy with the way my truck turned out but there definitely a mess afterwards!

[@dontyoudare7767]

Not bad! I think this method of "dustless blasting" would be really good to strip back previously painted flaking and peeling "brick walls" to its bare substrate.

[@lukewarmwater6412]

I just finished helping on a log house job. the medium glass media does a nice job and this rig works well I liked it a lot. only get about 250 hours out of the short coupler hose on the blast tank that I don't know the real name for, but the machine came with three spare ones so that must be normal.

[@jonathanwwichtendahl6930]

That and stucco

[@akrause2004]

I have a DB500 . The tool is amazing and performs exactly as shown in the vid. It's a highly effective tool that is worth the money and can earn a company like mine a very nice profit. However, ....the term "Dustless" is *extremely* misleading. Any area you work is is going to be a mess. A MESS! At a minimum, there will be a substantial amount of glass bead (basically sand) all around the work area to recover. If you're lucky enough to be outdoors, many times you can just blow the area with a leaf blower once it's dry (like 20 min) and be done. This week, my guys are blasting miles of rusted water/sprinkler pipe inside a parking garage so we'll have to blow, sweep, shovel and vacuum up the media when we're finished before we wash the floor for line striping. Otherwise, we'd clog the floor drain in seconds. Likewise, whatever you blast will be dirty and have residual glass bead on it as well. You HAVE to do a thorough rinse of the surface afterward and add extra Hold Tight (or whatever rust arrestor you purchase)to most surfaces or they will flash rust very quickly, ...sometimes within an hour or two. We double the recommended amount of HT in the 500 and still rinse with it afterward. I'd rather burn up a little extra $ on chemicals rather than have to pretty much start over on a rusted surface again. Ultimately, you can make nice money with this thing but there is a learning curve and, like anything, you have to sell, sell, sell the service or it will sit and collect dust (pun intended). Few people know what hydroblasting is.

[@jeffbaker4364]

Small sweeps is how its done,the compressor probably a screw type works like a surecharger. around 200 ks an hour at the tip of nozzzle.

[@newzerozeroone]

So many questions, but here's a few... 1) how is the glass media reclaimed? 2) if there is water/glass media in the air why is he not wearing breathing protection? 3) how many gallons of water did this thing go through?

[@DustlessBlasting-MMLJ]

1.) 40/70 crushed glass media is generally not reclaimed as it shatters on impact and becomes unusable. It is swept/scooped up and disposed of. Luckily, it is inexpensive at about $10/bag (or less depending on your distributor). Some more expensive kinds of media like glass bead can be reclaimed, depending on the use. For example, if you are cleaning pool tiles with glass bead you may be able to use a pool vacuum to reclaim the majority of it. 2.) The water in the Dustless Blasting process suppresses the dust plume making it safe to breathe normally when blasting in open air. We do recommend hand, ear, and eye protection. For comfort, many of our contractors like to use the Nova 3 blast respirator. We highly recommend it. store.dustlessblasting.com/collections/comfort-systems/products/rpb-nova-3-blasting-helmet 3.) The DB500 uses about 20 gallons of water per hour. Hope that helps!

[@n8rm]

[@robertmccully2792]

Their website says 300 per hour nationwide average. And where do you buy 50 lbs of media for 10 bucks,, and he said 6 bags of 50 pound for 60 bucks... Now if all that was true i would buy one.

[@DustlessBlasting-MMLJ]

This is assuming you use two four-armed men.

[@zeppelin67637]

nice, since warping is usually caused by heat, I would guess there would be no warping here, since the water would keep it cooler.

Hi Robert, we sell the media at $10 per 50lbs. May need to source it locally at a cheaper price, we sell Black Beauty and Tru brands of recycled glass abrasive. Perhaps you can find those cheaper in your area? Hopefully that helps, feel free to contact us if you need help.

What does cleanup look like? Are you sweeping up tons of debris? And does it damage chrome and glass?

[@DustlessBlasting-MMLJ]

You can sweep or shovel up spent media from a hard surface. Another method is blasting the project over plastic sheeting, which can be rolled up and disposed of. Blasting will etch chrome and glass, so if the customer plans on keeping those, they can be masked off with tape and cardboard.

What about the glass left? Is there any clean up or concerns? I mean there must be something left on the drive after 300 pounds of media sprayed

[@DustlessBlasting-MMLJ]

Hi Bob. Spent media will be swept or shoveled up when the job is done. Another technique is to blast over a 6 mil plastic sheet, which can be rolled up and disposed of. With the Dustless process, the media stays within a very small radius, unlike a dry blaster.

where does the old paint and glass go? Are there other mediums you can use with it? If you don't trap the old paint and glass beads aren't many places going to give you grief over it?

[@DustlessBlasting-MMLJ]

the glass is typically a 40/70 grit and when mixed with water traps the paint and falls to the ground. If on concrete it can be swept up. If you are over another area and want to lay down a tarp - it can be rolled up and disposed of after the job is complete. The media itself is 100% inert and non toxic and won't cause harm to grass, plants or the earth.

The DB500 uses about 20 gallons of water per hour.

[@PatrickBaptist]

300lbs of glass, where did it go?

[@DustlessBlasting-MMLJ]

Right on the ground along with the paint. The water traps the glass particles before evaporating and it collects under the car to be swept up later.

[@blairstpeter395]

If I’m correct, wouldn’t this system create rust because of the paint being stripped and leaving the bare surface?

The Dustless process keeps everything contained to a very small radius. When you're done blasting, the spent media and coating can be swept or shoveled up and disposed of. You can also blast over a plastic sheet to make cleanup easier.

Our process is compliant with regulations. The glass media is 100% inert and will not harm the surrounding grass, plants or earth. The paint and debris (in wet blasting) will fall to the concrete instead of floating in a dust plume and can be swept up afterwards - or if a tarp is placed under the blast item prior to blasting it can be rolled up and disposed.
