    So glad to see that people in some countries actually see the value in maintaining an old building. People in my country just tear something like that down and replace it with a pole shed

    The amount of masonry work uncovered by removing the paint is extensive. Beautiful work on the removal process.

    Does the pointing need redoing after the removal of paint or bitumen? Do the bricks then need a treatment of breathable waterproofing?

    • @Mobileblaster
      @Mobileblaster  Год назад

      The blaster will only remove soft mortar. It's advised to seal the masonry but only to keep the brick looking clean for as long as possible its not needed to keep the bricks waterproof. 👍

    Does the sand blastering damage the face of the brick. Could it be used on red enginineering brick without damaging the face

    • @Mobileblaster
      @Mobileblaster  2 года назад +1

      Depends on what your taking off I can blast any brick without any damage but that's light cleaning.

      I wasn't keeping track I would say around 2 ton possibly a little more I lifted 2 pallets in the van I carnt remember if I went the 1st day with a full pallet or not I've done other jobs since this 😂 I duno how much I brung home at the end its something I don't keep a track of because it can very so much as no job is same like the sides and rear was slightly easier than the front what I mean I had to knock it up to bite through the cement just behind the paint. In turn using possibly 2x the amount of media than the back.
      I can get 20 mins out of 75kgs (and if any other blaster is reading this 20 mins and it on the limit of too much but not haha) or 3 hour out of 75kgs that's what I mean with it verys so much I've even done 3.5hour on 1 fill (I've modded my grit valve it will only really work on softer/finer media's like glass/soda it's that precise but weres fast. All so have a drop in part that takes around 30 mins to fit shite at trying to get a flow with glass but mega with steel shot 0% were after 20 to 30 ton shoved through it.)

    Mick, hope ya don't mind questions. I've a wee problem metering my glass, stuff I can get up here is like a mix of fine and superfine, I don't know the spec as it's a byproduct of making water filters. But it is very consistent with no big nasties in it. Anyway its a remote valve on a soda pot with a vibrator, and it turns down so far then just stops dead also waste a lot every time I stop and restart it does the old steam train impersonation for 10 seconds till it evens out. I seen you mention before about rebuilding your valve dose that sound like the symptoms of needing a rebuild?
    Thanks

    • @Mobileblaster

      you use some kind of soda

      But you do not mean 0-0.25 mm glass / or sand will be fine for cleaning bricks.
      I often use sand and glass. I have sandblasted a wooden house with 0.25 mm glass.
      no matter what I do, I never use more than 0.80 mm
      most I use is 0.25 / 0.36 / 0.50 / 0.80 mm.
      I will test soda / calcium carbonate in 2022 :)
      Sodan is extremely expensive in Denmark.

      I've full control of the water i only use what is needed any other methods of introducing water you don't get full control of media and water separately. (What I mean I can turn the water on or off as well as set the media flow to my liking) the over spray seen in the video is mainly water vapour due to it been 98% humidity that day the drive to and from work fog was a massive problem a 40 min journey tuck 2 hour 30 just with the fog. That was the issue I had with the water vapour it wouldn't sit and the was 0 wind hence it looking like it dose

      Sounds daft but I much prefer a ladder to scaffolding I've never had any injuries from a ladder but I've had too many with scaffolding not only that the pipes get snagged way too often on scaffolding slowing the job down plus sometimes it's a matter of getting the job or it not feasible with scaffolding. All well and good if other work is getting done after but to justify the cost just for a few days worth of work seems to be a waste when I actually prefer ladder 😊👌👍

I cannot ask an employee to work off a ladder and it's on me to make sure they use PPE BUT I don't have to use any PPE! I know it sounds daft but I am a contractor all liability falls on me and my insurance no one else any blame 0 claim (HSE have investigated me that's why I know for sure I cannot ask an employee to do as I do but I don't employ anyone) obviously I'm liable to make sure all my kit is tested and got relevant Skimatics...
