Great work, excellent results. Looking forward to more info. Main question would be how is ‘vapour’ blasting different from typical wet sandblasting? Surely items blasted both ways would flash rust just as quickly?

@ArmouryEnterprises

5 жыл бұрын

They are two terms that are practically interchangeable. Flash rusting is an issue, but it can be mitigated using a rust inhibitor. I treat my ferrous components immediately either by electroplating, painting or powder coating.

Very interested in this. All I have seen are very expensive and no details have been given on other builds

Is this something too different than using a pressure washer with some sand etc??

@ArmouryEnterprises

Yes. Having used pressure washers with sand. I can tell you that the results are not in the least comparable. For removing flaky rust and paint, the pressure washers work fine. But the finish is no where near the quality a vapour blaster can provide.

Hi what do you use to stop finger marks after you have finished the job and its dry. Wayne.

@ArmouryEnterprises

7 ай бұрын

Hi Wayne. Personally I just leave it. Vapour blasting with glass bead closes the surface of the material and dirt doesn't stick in the same way as it would after dry blasting. Some people will protect the surface additionally with products like ACF-50, or by applying a clear coat. Cheers Josh

Put the wiper threw a timer pal so it wipes every so often then it wont be so annoying or water misters could be a option garden sprinklers

Sprinklers will work, but from the testing I have done so far, a decent water jets seem to work better than sprinkler mist. With my wiper systems, on cabinets I sell or ones that get a lot of use, I just use a relay and limit switch. I prefer it to timers as you get it when you need it and not when you don't.

Hi Jeremy, the beads in this video are second hand test beads from a cabinet that I built for a friend. I gave him the bag with the unit. I can't remember the grade but they are glass beads. I haven't tested crushed glass but I would assume they would yield results similar to degraded beads. Check out my video on cleaning pistons to see the difference between good and degraded beads. I plan to do some more testing on different beads and put up a video of my results shortly.

Yeah it does. Though you need a good air supply and harsher media. Like a mix of Aluminum oxide with glass bead. Also the thickness and hardness of the powder coat is important. Vapour blasters struggle to remove softer materials. For example well stuck silicon usually won't come off

I'd like to know what kind of pump use the companies that produce them... But of course without having to buy a 20.000 bucks cabinet for a Hobbie use... (

Granted I am yet to put my systems through industrial quantities of work. I am yet to have a pump fail. I tried to find the lowest cost pump I could to keep replacement costs as low as possible. In saying that. Even the pumps I have in my older cabinets are yet to have a seal fail or shown signs of impeller wear. I will do a video on what pumps I use, and why I use them, as well as things I looked for in development soon.
