    Local sand blasters

    I read my POR 15 high heat paint directions, and then called them to verify that my exhaust manifold does need to be sandblasted before applying the new paint. It's not all that rusty, but that's what they say...

    Bothell Way sandblasting seems to be out of business, and Ballard Welding and Sandblasting has a bad phone number - can only find one other place and they charge $125 for the job. Anyone know of other places around, or have their own small cabinet I could use for 20 minutes?

    Hey, thanks for the offer, Steve. I live in Bellevue (across the lake from Seattle) so don't know if that will work out. I'm over due for a trip to the peninusula, but don't see when I'll be able to do that soon. Will let you know though if I decide to head that way!

    PS - what's a pressure pot?

    A pressure pot is a blaster that holds about 400lbs of media, and I have full gear that you wear and actually stand inside the room to blast large objects like car frames ect...
    The room I have is 10ft high X 20ft long X 10ft wide. It really makes short work of blasting things versus a smaller glass bead cabinet.
    Anytime you are in the area feel free to drop me a line and would be glad to give you guys a tour. Thanks Steve H.

    Sounds like a great club cruise day next summer.

    Thor,

    If you can get them over to the U-District where I work, I have a cabinet at work I use all the time. Almost every part I plan to paint or have painted has been blasted in that thing. Did Patrick's steering column a while back. You just need to make an arrangement to either leave it in the morning or the evening before and I'll do them the day I see them. If inerested, PM me or call and I'll see what I can do.
