Doing another video today of me working on a 71 Mini. Give me a little bit, perhaps a day or two to edit it and make a new Plastic Media Blasting in action video and post it here. Some things I want to show are close ups, action shots, and perhaps even some 'problem' areas that come up.

What colour did you re-paint the car, well done for youir hard work but would really like to know?.

[mr954]

@Brighteyes1ful It's going back to a close to original brownish metallic.

How do you clean/reclaim all of that media?

[mr954]

@GeorgiaBoi70 Got a dust collector that sucks the media up, good media falls down into pot for re-use, dust goes to collector.

You put the hose in front, not over your shoulder but in front, and with that pressure and material I would get a little closer.

@CaseyMcLaughalot All the Soda blasters I know can't recover their media, it get's flushed down the drain/sewers, and it's pretty caustic, not too sure your facts are correct.

Thats a pretty serious sand blasting setup. Make Model Cost? Where did you buy it?

[mr954]

dontdriveforfree; fixxin' to load some up next week, got a really rusty 'Cuda to clean up.

@mr954 hey man ever tried aluminum oxide? its alot faster.

I sweep it up into a collection port I built that pulls it up thru the ducting I installed, into the hopper for re-use, the worn out stuff (dust/paint/crap) gets pulled over to the dust collector.
