After explaining safety precautions he says "you could laser clean with your eyes closed." This is truly amazing though! Not having to use chemicals or anything that'd potentially ruin whatever it is being cleaned.

[@maxhouseman3129]

He said it, because in the sentence before he explained, that you can hear the perfect working distance with your ears. It's like driving a car by ears, just because you hear the motor noises. That is not related to safety.

Since I've seen this used only on metal a thousand times I was surprised to see it used on just about whatever. It works surprisingly well.

[@JJFX-]

What blows me away is the ability to tune it so that you can clean delicate materials that are even potentially flammable without damaging the surface. Removing surface contaminates from a wall without affecting even the painted surface is just extraordinary. I hope we get to a point where a significantly toned down version can be feasible as a household product.

[@projectlaser]

Glad you appreciated our expertise JJ, plenty more on our KZbin page

[@sethdrake7551]

The big problem with lasers is its REALLY easy to laser your or someone else's eyes; lasers can go quite far and if they hit a reflective surface they can bounce to unexpected locations, this is why they always use laser goggles and put up those light absorbing fences

[@GeomancerHT]

This needs to be toned even down in power so human can use it to safely bath without using water, that would be an amazing breakthrough for saving water and also space travel.

[@henkkaa88]

This is because the soot is black and absorbs light easily.

[@JJFX-]

@@henkkaa88 That makes perfect sense. So realistically this would be much harder if the goal was to remove graffiti or something similar.

[@zuzudoggie8288]

Graffiti comes to mind. A good way to get rid of it without having to paint over or use chemicals.

[@projectlaser]

Graffiti is hit and miss, some colours react differently with infrared light! black is easier than white for example

[@AvoidTheCadaver]

You'd have to be very mindful of what the paint pigments are made of. The laser is doing a process called ablation. You can think of it as a light jackhammer. While the big laser might be a 200W, that's measured at continuous wave output. When you pulse a laser you're looking at peak power as the key performance criterion, which is a function of the pulse duration and frequency. When you ablate something you're dumping all the energy in your pulse into the target to vaporize it. If it's a highly volatile oxidative material you can get it to ignite, so you gotta be careful.

[@brendenbaxter3269]

The irony of burning soot off of something fire damaged is awesome.

That was the calmest way I’ve ever heard someone say “Molotov cocktail thrown into the house.” Is this a common thing in Australia? I’m an American so I’m used to crazy mindless violence, but damn

[@MrZoomah]

Living in his city this is very rare. Likely bikey violence which is in decline. I live in a bushfire zone. Despite my house being bushfire resistant smoke damage is very expensive. Good to know there's someone like this here. (Hopefully he's not too expensive)

How do you work your pricing out? Is it by the surface area to be cleaned or time spent?

[@theblackandwhiteclan2952]

same question i wanted answered as well, with my business i charge per aircon, so its my time im wasting if i fart around. I would say it would be similar to painting - how many rooms x how big they are x how bad it is(depends this laser stuff looks insane and flawless so i could imagine this would be always at base rate) you could add complication in there but like he explained his work almost does it self you just have to focus on security and making sure there isnt anything invisible because thats were you miss going the best job possible

[@nadheem420]

Time and what material it is cleaning probably. Surface area can differ the needed by how much soot in an area and what material is being cleaned

[@projectlaser]

Hey Mate, Our prices vary depending on the industry, smoke damage we either charge by the sqm or by an hourly rate, depending on size of the job and the level of contamination we are removing, be it soot, paint, grease or other coatings

soot is particularly convenient because it's extremely dark and absorbs the heat much more than just about every surface that it's on. like how laser hair removal works best on pale-skinned people with dark hair.
