wet blasting a car

[@andrewwilson8317]

That is a damned fine condition car to be blasting. It is in amazing rust free condition and has a thin coat of paint to come off. All one colour with no primer,undercoat or filler. Would be very happy to get one like that in for blasting instead of the hard work rusty,filled and bodged shells that I get in!

[@drexauto1307]

maybe you should take a moment and watch the other videos. This blaster cuts through rust and bindi just fine. I've also seen it cut through powder coating with no issue.

[@andrewwilson8317]

I do blasting too. We cover wet,dry and soda blasting. We use various media depending on the job. Only one not covered is chilled iron, does too much damage to hoses,tips etc. Find crushed plastic cleans best when wet blasting.

[@LivingTheDreamCoffeeRoasters]

Staged. But it does work.

[@iam1smiley1]

They work great, we have a cheap version and it's great for weird coating removal.

always one important guy with a Bluetooth....

[@andrewwilson8317]

Soda blasting leaves it rust resistant for some weeks outside and months inside. Simple hose down cleans up site after and very low hazard .

[@BigRalphSmith]

I'm good with the wet blasting. Has some significant benefits over dry media blasting but this car in this video is just a little too pretty. No rusted holes, no body filler, no primer coat, etc. I want to see the blasting on ugly cars, real dogs, the worst of the worst. That's where the real rubber meets the road.

I find this machine great its fast doing indeed to get off all that paint and all that rust off its good to work on the car with clean metal and you know where you start and the repairs can be carried out.

[@russelblackwell6041]

THATS JUST CRAZY many are put off by the old method of using sand which is harsh or electric driils grinders with wire wheels or the messy paint strip makes you want to find an old car and resto it

[@simonloveless8924]

A Great Machine Indeed To Use Its Easygoing and good to remove all that rust.

[@regieboix2]

typical advert, well (not) staged, I mean that car is mint and didn't even need blasrting, all it needed was a colour spray or even just a polish, I would really like to see it blast some old rusty farm tractor or truck,lol

[@patriciabrayboy822]

I would love to have one of those

[@rollingfog1]

I've watched this video more then 10 times I'm building a different version of a dustless blaster but I'm trying to save up for one of these Very well built and great design The videos you all have posted are excellent and very informative

[@user-dl7bv5rn7d]

Cool.

[@iam1smiley1]

Can you use sand with this?

[@miguelquintero7702]

Tiene un equipo más pequeño?

[@cootersgarage4408]

What does this process cost?

[@warrobotstankers9554]

It is usually based on the size of the vehicle and how much media and time it takes to complete the job to the customer's satisfaction.

[@yeagermcbipper9008]

This system used GLASS BEAD meaning its only good for paint. This is not a rusty metal system.

[@warrobotstankers9554]

This system can be used with MULTIPLE different media's. They use the media needed for the job at hand. Please research the product before putting it down.

[@betoen]

Please, somebody blast those 10 dislikes.

[@IgnasGTI]

What point to clean rust metal with water??? Water + clean metal = rust again, after dry sand blasting, you can't touch with bare hands, because metal get moisture where you touch, after dray blasting you have to paint fast, because metal can get moisture and from the air , and start rust again. SO Where is a POINT to blast whit water??????

[@warrobotstankers9554]

When the car is done being blasted, they spray it with a rust inhibitor that prevents the rust from returning. and ANY body shop worth 2 nickels will have to do more prep work and body work BEFORE going to primer and paint. After all, rare vehicles like this are usually built by folks with plenty of cash on hand.

[@petrusbenckey]

Maybe the bodycar is aluminium so you don't have to be afraid by a return of the rust.

[@petrusbenckey]

@@warrobotstankers9554 Somepeople say that you can add additive into water to prevent the rust after the wet blast.

[@waynegoff764]

They are all to slow.

[@paulthompson3877]

yer,they should be flicking the nozel up and down in a forward motion ,and the deadman switch should be a meter away from the nozel . hold nozel one handed and deadman with the other hand .

[@12RCARR]

Wow I just looked up the price for these dustless blasters for a mobile unit the lowest one you can get is like 44,000 bucks and the highest one is like 90,000 you would have to do a lot of blasting to pay for that

[@warrobotstankers9554]

$2-4000 per vehicle? In a summer, if you advertise right and body shops know it would be more cost effective to have this done rather than all the manual labor to achieve the same result, you could theoretically pay for it in full in one summer. Remember, you are achieving in a few hours of one day, what would take a body shop several weeks to accomplish.

[@jonmccormick8683]

You can get a VHT vapor blaster for way less than that for parts etc. Make your own for about $400 with a $200 Harbor Freight sand blasting cabinet (need to seal it for the water).

[@12RCARR]

War Robots TANKERS yep I’ve done a lot of research into it now and I’m gonna get one but now I also run my own portable welding business to so I’m gonna try to make it a one stop type of deal for fabrication projects

[@AaronCook83]

You guys always talk about perfect technique, when it is clearly better to 'push' rather than 'pull' as if it were a scraper, but almost nobody does it.

[@joeallen2286]

Makes you wonder where all the runoff is going.

[@warrobotstankers9554]

wherever it wants. It is not environmentally damaging since the media sits where the water dries up at. After all, they use glass in asphalt and road surfacing.
