Hello, is there any problem with blasting gasket surface ? I mean for the sealing surface?

I've been aware of vapour blasting for many years but never saw it done until now. The end results have always been very impressive.

Vapour blasting has always fascinated me! You can make the most grubby dirty engine part etc and make it look new . Great video.

Wow Amazing Very impressed

This is so satisfying !!!

Looks amazing. Im running a 170-375 glass mesh from potters and cant come close to that sheen. Id love to know the process on how to clean engine parts prior to assembly. Thank you .

For dimension sensitive parts it's got to be the best option. It's beyond a good result.

I think i would enjoy doing that for a living ☺

Very impressive, what´s the media you use for aluminum engines? I did read about nutshell particles, or/and ceramic microespheres...?

Hi Steve I was very impressed with the results and would be interested to see the complete engine from the kawasaki results is there a video available??

Sir, what cabinet did you use to make this? I'm planning a new project and came across your video. It seems to work very well!

Hi Steve, how would you insure that all the media is out of the head before re-using it in an engine ?

How does it work on heavy rust? Like old brake calipers.

Can you please tell me if I want to clean 4 cylinder, cylinder head then how much time will be consume

Clean shiny like this. What number is Glass.blad sand used? I want to know what number do you use?

Can vapor blasting be used only with degreaser and air? I worry about media in small oil holes, threads, etc.

Crikey's mate love your clips, need one for the 31 Packard project, wondering can the cabinets be used for both abrasive and vapour.

Hi what's the best way to clean engine block after aqua blast from leftover glass media ?

Hi there from empty how much meddium do you put in.? And what size.

Hello, could you tell me what air parameters and media are using? Thanks a lot.

How loud is the machine?

Two questions even after thoroughly cleaning you hear horror story's of media found inside engines. I had vapour blasting on bare hubs and a few other small parts 220 pound! !

Can car gearbox do the same cleaning processing without causing any internal damages? Thanks.

I was told by an individual that paint can be removed and that I should try using vapor blasting instead of using an aircraft paint remover on an aluminum motorcycle frame that is being prepped for powder coating. I told him that is not what vapor blasting is made for based on researching the process of vapor blasting.
