Unlike sand sprayed with compressed air, which makes silicosis laden air and a health hazard, Dustless does not produce that. The glass particles along with the removed paint is best handled by laying down a cheap "one use tarp" and weight or tape down the edges. When the car or item is stripped,

If you had a car or whatever item that was properly prepped I can see it being a hella labor saving operation. Yes, you would have to spray sanding sealer to protect the surfaces, but that’s easily removed as you do the prep. I just wonder who has to clean up all the little piles of crushed

To be honest, while the blaster is awesome I'm not sure how much of a labor saving device it is since you have to seal within 72 hours, then sand before you prime, etc. On Sun, Apr 26, 2020 at 7:27 PM G Mann via Mercedes wrote: > Thanks for asking.. I'm not a franchisee. > > I just like the

Thanks for asking.. I'm not a franchisee. I just like the process and became enamored with it enough to almost buy out a fellow here who wanted to retire and had a full mobile rig and client base.. After much deliberation, I decided it was "another business" and it would extend my energies to

Correct. At the end of removal of the paint down to bare metal the whole car is washed down with a hand sprayer using some sort of water based material that neutralizes the bare metal and retards flash rust for about 72 hours, which is time enough to spray on a coat of sealer. Sealer will sand

I’ve seen this before. One thing I didn’t catch was that they spray or apply something after blasting to protect the metal, or so it sounds, but I haven’t been able to figure out what. Having that much bare metal exposed is going to be an issue if you don’t have a way to stabilize the surface

OOps... forgot to post the dustless blasting video link here is a car with about the same color paint being stripped, to bare metal in less than 1 hour. The windows don't have to come out, chrome can stay in place and not be damaged. Metal is left in near perfect finish to take paint or

It is a perfect candidate for paint removal to bare metal, door jams and all. If the mechanical bones are truly good, and there is no rust. Followed by a proper repaint in a good solid color that would go with the interior color.. Est: $4,000.00 for repaint [Didn't Mercedes have a nice rich dark
