Bead-blasting is an ADDICTION.haha I loved bead-blasting my car parts.I've used steel shot,glass beads,walnut shells ETC.the wet blaster i never had one,but it looks like a lot better way to remove leftover media.PEOPLE in general don't realize just how much better and easier it is to do a good job when the parts are clean enough to see a hairline crack in a piston ring land.Or the fin ,like on your head.Great video.
Like I've said before you look like you do a great job but unfortunately I'm in Port Douglas and couldn't find someone who was good and reliable and that charged about the same as you so had to build my own. Not nearly as good as your machines but for the few old motorcycles I have worth while. Plus a few mates are getting me to do their stuff too
Sorry mate. I worry that people will get bored with the in cabinet stuff. I do have a few other videos with a camera looking through the window. Thanks for tuning in. Cheers Craig
Do you find hydroblasting is more effective than dry blasting, when the parts are very dirty or have thick coatings of paint on them? I have found that difficult parts can be cleaned far faster with dry blasting, with final finishing using wet blast.
Hey there. I regularly dry blast paint and grime off parts that need it and then give it a finish in the wet blaster. Yes it is a lot quicker and costs the customer less without altering the quality of the finished product. As long as the dry blast media isn’t too brutal it won’t cause a problem. Thanks for tuning in. Cheers Craig
@@BendigoHydroblasting I think a lot of people get the mistaken idea that a wet blaster, will do pretty much everything? A friend of mine lets me use his blast cleaning gear, and while the wet blaster is great for final finishing, its of no real use on more difficult cleaning jobs.
@@BendigoHydroblasting What compressor do you have? I was going to have a go at dry blasting a few years, but gave up on it, as couldnt afford anything other than a used piston compressor.
@@humourless682 I run 2 no. 17cfm piston compressors and they supply enough air to run this cabinet. I tried a 12 cfm compressor on my old cabinet and it didn’t have a hope in hell of keeping up. Blast for a minute or 2 then wait 5 for the air. Very frustrating.
@@BendigoHydroblasting I had a go at blast cleaning about 12 years ago, and had a small compressor. As you say, a total waste of time! I got the equipment to try it again last year, and had a 33cfm 10hp compressor and a Guyson suction cabinet. Didn't go ahead with it though, as the person who does my blasting didn't give up, as expected, and it wasn't something I wanted to do unless I had to! He has an 80cfm screw compressor, which might have been a mistake as the electricity prices in UK are crazy now! I do Tig welding work for him, and he does my blast cleaning. Good arrangement........
Hi, thanks for watching. I don’t use any chemicals for cleaning parts, it is just a water and glass slurry in the machine. If parts are dirty I will preclean them with degreaser prior to blasting. Cheers Craig
Everthing in the video got one pass in the wet blasting cabinet except for the cylinder. It was dry blasted first then one pass in the wet cabinet. Cheers Craig
I try it, i had a waterblast and a dry pressure pot sandblast with a 35 cfm compressors but i don't arrive at this amazing results, il try it, for sure, thanks you so much.@@BendigoHydroblasting

And I’ll bet you get the same grin on your face as me everytime you look at a finished part 🙂
@BendigoHydroblasting big grins but if it wasn't for people like you I wouldn't have even thought about going down this road. Thanks mate 👍
You didn’t show the process, only the results. I’d like to see how you clean the parts. Thanks.

Which cammecial you use to clean carburetor?

You pass the pieces 1 shot in the waterblaste for this result or you use the sandblast and the waterblast with glassbeed ?
Everthing in the video got one pass in the wet blasting cabinet except for the cylinder. It was dry blasted first then one pass in the wet cabinet. Cheers Craig
in the dry blast you use glass beed or other media ? and what pressure you use ?
I use garnett in the dryblast cabinet at about 80 psi. I run 2 17cfm compressors so can keep up with air volume at this pressure.
I try it, i had a waterblast and a dry pressure pot sandblast with a 35 cfm compressors but i don't arrive at this amazing results, il try it, for sure, thanks you so much.@@BendigoHydroblasting
👏👏👏👌
you can do my TS 400
😊😊 better finish my own first. Can’t wait to ride it. I have a 76 DT400 also and it is such a fun bike to ride. Cheers Craig
How come you guy's talk funny over there?
😂😂😂 I’ts just a cunning plan we use to make our youtube videos more appealing than the rest of the worlds 😁. Thanks for tuning in mate. Cheers Craig
Jolly good show.@@BendigoHydroblasting
