Mick, how many sandbags do you spend on this kind of work? After sandblasting, do you ground with a protective layer or not?

[@Mobileblaster]

I would load up 750kgs but have the hopes of using 15/20 25kgs bags I forget exactly how many I used sorry. Normally they are taken to the spray booth ready for paint the following day 👍

Looks great Mick , I have a 4x4x4 foot glass bead cabinet. What type of media do you use . I have glass and walnut shells.

[@Mobileblaster]

Thx pal 👍 it depends on what your blasting and the kind of finish your after mate. Look at it like sanding a wood 80grit will rip it to bits 320 would leave it smooth. Too many variables to say 1 media suits all 👌💞

[@Mobileblaster]

I use a selection of crushed glass from supa fine to medium+ then steel shot and soda on this job would have been fine+ crushed glass or along them lines maybe medium

[@nicolassales8679]

Great job, next time you do a loading shovel make sure the customer supports the arms. It's not safe, if a pipe fails the arms and bucket will drop on you!

[@Mobileblaster]

Yeah I'm aware of that the bucket was on the ground taking the weight I know its no substitute for a stand but 3 rams would have to fail for it to move? I believe they have check valves and run on separate plumbing I could be wrong but I feel much safer with the bucket on the ground than in the air 😂 I would feel better with a ram lock in place haha

[@johnwade1095]

There should be a prop next to one of the rams. If the customer has removed it he'll go to jail if anyone is hurt.

Watched alot of your videos, think the work looks interesting to do, is there a media you like to use more of? Theres alot of different medias to choose from and different medias do different things. Would like to have a go at it starting off small with a blast cabinet in my garage at home. Cheers

[@Mobileblaster]

It depends on the job in question I would say phone the supplier and explain what you want to achieve and how ie blast booth as you can reuse the media in them so different media's do different jobs just like sand paper

Unfortunately not I tend to only get involved in the blasting process 👌💞

[@colinmartin5994]

What is the discoloration left in spots after you have blasted? Those dark spots? Isn't that corrosion of some sort that is embedded deeper into the metal? I'm just wondering if a courser media should be used to go deeper into the metal to take that out?

[@Mobileblaster]

Yes your right you could spend extra money and time on a slightly heavier grit then run the risk of damage to other stuff that dony need the grit in or on. At the start I explain what this company was after and all they want from me is to make the serface free from loose materials and etched for paint. They don't require me to get SA3 standards. I could do it but then the costs would make this job not feasible. This serface is totally fine to paint over as this was over 12 months ago and that's the warranty period without any issues. If a good primer is used it will eat into any remaining blooms on the metal and neutralise it.

[@colinmartin5994]

@@Mobileblaster Thanks for your reply. I did not realise that using a heavier media can damage things. It's good to know. Thanks for sharing.

There’s a company in Houston, Tx that’s called Dustless Blasting. Have you ever seen there machine? It uses water with the air system really neat system.

[@Mobileblaster]

Water on a job like this isn't a good idea. I have the ability to add water on this pot but every internal corner I get slurry all over me and the visor then at the end of the job it needs washing down to get the slurry off and it takes a very long time to get it all off plus the chemical that's needed to add to the water isn't cheap all this makes it not worth using 👍💞

[@SegoMan]

@@Mobileblaster with the time saved it is, TSP is not that expensive. used compressed air to blow out the wet spots..

[@Mobileblaster]

@@SegoMan TSP? Adding water is adding problems it won't make it any quicker than dry blasting all water does is suppress the dust but using water covers me in slurry the visor and then the job needs washing down to remove the slurry. only 1 pro less dust 5 or 6 reasons to keep dry if possible

Hi mate great job, what material do you blast with, I'm moving from a small Blast clean unit to a large one as i don't get very long between fills. I'm using iron filing media but it's a pain to keep recycling, and after the second pass through, it gets to dusty and far less affective. Any suggestions?? I'm only doing my own plant and machinery.

[@Mobileblaster]

Steel shot will get more passes but its a course media and expensive. I'm a contractor so I get paid for speed I only use my media 1 x so don't have much experience with reusing media only with steel shot I know this lasts as long as it can till it turns to dust 👍 10 15 x through the pot

Please let me explain :) Ive done a lot of work for this company and they know what to expect the job sheet was hit as much area as possible the notes was its going back out on hire and just needs to look good as it roles off the low loader. Area was more important then digging the rust out this was a lot of area in the time that was allocated and only real way to save on time was to give a light blast still perfect for paint and a lot better than rubbing it down by hand in the same time frame :) the customer knows what to expect for his money all this is explained before hand plus its a repeat customer for the past 10 year or so. I know what to deliver and in the time frame he asks for. I can certainly strip every part and blast it to a inch of its lift and rebuild with brand new pipes etc but the man hours and costs involved would out price this unit. knowing what to deliver at what costs is key in this business.
