Last I checked all body paint and rust stripping styles are a mess afterwards to clean up? Maybe I'm missing something that there is a system that sucks up the debri as you strip? lol
anyways my personal experience
The wet strip has been pricey when I checked twice, and as above mentioned the guy wasn't much on wanting to doing it?
So, I'm like hell I'll purchase my own personal use one thats smaller, I got excited about doing this, was pretty fired up on this, I got a quote on the dustless machinery and laughed so hard, threw the quote in the trash. Wow, I could purchase a paint booth plus build and enclose a car port for media blasting for what they asked for their machines.. It sucked and I hate when things suck
So far it's been to expensive to try it and the entrepreneurs' don't seem to want the business from my experience. I don't know how well this design would work becuse I'v tried to pay someone or buy it to see and The big man upstairs keeps it from happening and I'll have to expect he is saving me financially from something disatrius?
It does create a mess, but not as much as you think. it can simply be washed away. I wouldnt have a problem doing this in my driveway.
They are expensive, but from what i was told they arent for the casual do-it your selfers. These are for industry, doing large boats, and equipment. Businesses eat this stuff up because it doesn't require special breathing equipment and OSHA standards.
I've contacted people locally to get this done, and prices range from 700-1200 dollars to do the entire car. Thats including media and anti-rust, which is about 400 dollars, and diesel for the machine. The labor part is just about 5 hours of blasting on their end. The real labor is getting everything back and prepping, I spent way more time blowing all the media out of the nooks and crannies and prepping the metal for epoxy.
I still say this is the best way to take a car down. Ive tried them all.
I hope this helps someone looking to do this, as I was on the fence until my friend came through with letting me use the machine.
