Re: portable sand blaster

Yes sir it’s a lot of work in the future get you a carbide nozzle you can do two or three complete cars with one, you can get screens that go in front of your lens to protect them from the sand recycle your sand it’s well worth it. don’t know anything about the epoxy you used I like SPI 200 bucks it makes 2 gallons. could not imagine doing that assembled that had to be time consuming. I am probably out of touch on cost never having someone else do it. Martinsr posted on here a few months back that he had his frame and a bunch of miscellaneous parts blasted and powder coated for a couple of hundred dollars at the time I thought that was extremely cheap but if the epoxy you’re using is $400 that’s 600 for labor to blast and paint Is a fair price. Also using recycled sand is much finer and does a better job on sheet metal and less chance of warping
