Remove Paint AND Stress!

[@fredio54]

Nothing more relaxing than watching someone else working - the music was enough to make me doze off multiple times :-) and it was useful watching you reusing the media. I guess the paint and rust blows away as dust.

I find your channel very underrated and your content amazing. Glad you share with us! Keep up the good work!

[@GregWellwood]

Thanks! Comments like this put wind in my sails! (grin) You get an "A!"

I know how satisfying this was to watch - I can only imagine how much so it was to do, and see the results happening before you. ...and I guess I know what I'll be humming for the rest of the day. 🤪 My first learning vehicle was a '62 1/2 ton, although I prefer the sleeker '64-66. Thanks for the video!

Found your channel because of the blast cabinet mods . Found this very enjoyable as mine is a home made cabinet blaster and to get anything decent for flow it's best to pulse the gun . Seriously looking at changing from syphon to media valve feed .. love the way you did the hood . It maybe a 2 millimetre line each time but its quicker than a 5mm round spot. Have subscribed tonight so I can find and watch more . Thanks from the UK.

Don't forget to mention that the day temperatures reach 35+ degrees Celsius, along with all of the smoke in the air from the forest fires in the valley, while you do this outside. Great job!

[@Dani-rx1sv]

new subscriber here! How many hours did it take to blast the entire hood, inside and out? I think some kind of vertical CNC machine to hold the nozzle where one could set the parameters and sit back with a cold one and watch it happen would be a money maker. Great job!

Why was it necessary to remove all the paint? Most of it appeared to be sound.

[@odebek]

How do you keep the parts from rusting across several days of the work, doesn't the bare metal begin to rust almost immediately?

[@GregWellwood]

I live in Canada's desert - there is very little moisture in the air. There are spray-on solutions you can use to protect the metal (I can't remember their names), but I've never used them.

Please post link where to buy this blaster? Thanks..... resume blasting.....

[@GregWellwood]

This is addressed on your similar question in the Sand Blaster video. Thanks for your input.

[@matthewwarfield4302]

HUH... All the blasting I've done and it never sounded anything like that! I mastered the technique or I was using the wrong media... ;)

🤣

[@davebrittain9216]

Did it warp it at all?

[@GregWellwood]

I saw no evidence of any once primered, but I might not have a good eye for that. I ran 50psi, 2.0mm tip, my compressor is 14.5cfm, and I use well-used crushed glass.

[@MuzzahA1]

Great stuff, how many nozzles did you go through?

[@GregWellwood]

I'm still on the second nozzle. The first nozzle blasted the doors, cab rockers/floor, hood, front fenders, nose, and the entire bed, all inside and out. They last pretty reasonably.

[@IowaMercMan]

I enjoy this a lot more when I’m not the one doing it. I’m still finding sand on my person from a car I blasted in high school. Well done, sir! Is it your intent to strip the entire vehicle in this manner?

[@GregWellwood]

Yes, my summer goal is to have the entire truck blasted and primed. Then spend this coming school year prepping for painting next summer.
