😊 I it wasn't ideal I wanted this style switch for some time no one sells them in the UK or the ones that do want ridiculous prices 😒 I had to wait for this one as it was from overseas 👍
Dear @@Mobileblaster Overseas can be France too. Just a little hop over the channel. 😁 ;-) 2) You could at least have used a simple but safe switch that is commonly used on cords for lamps etc.. Best regards, luck, health and wisdom.
@Chr.U.Cas2216 a simple on off switch would work but far from safe the idea is that if you drop the pipe it cuts off 😄 that's the main reason I didn't fit 1 well to be honest I did fit 1 but it filled with dust and stopped working 🫣
@@Mobileblaster Thanks for replying, I appreciate this. 2) No doubt that a simply on/off switch would definitely have worked better than always have to cobble together 2 wires (and even show this in public)! Way too many utubers forget that they are in public and therefore have a responsibility. Lots of them are even seen as role models respectively their behaviour (even if wrong) is copied.
@Chr.U.Cas2216 These videos aren't a how too lots of ways to do the same job just how I do things isn't the only way or the right way if folk cannot make this out then they certainly shouldn't be operating this kind of rig.
A brilliant sand blasting gentleman a very good job❤👀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
These videos make it so people can actually watch what's going off because been near a blaster isn't a nice place to be. Infact when I've not got the lid on and I'm near someone blasting I cannot move away fast enough I really don't fink people understand how loud it really is 😏 I always say to anyone that's starting out seal an envelope put it in your pocket do a days blasting and then open it I can guarantee it will have some grit init 😂 can you imagine what the inside of my washer and dryer looks like 😂
Oh dear it looked like you were having probs with your machine…may it be something simple and cheap! Since I’m new to this sandblasting world, my brain sometimes forgets that you’re taking the paint OFF and not spraying it ON !! 🤦♀️🤣 Turned out really great! 👏👏👏💯💯👏👏👏
The blue ish tint is water vapour. Going on that info the media would have been made damp coursing clogs or a choke in the flow of media. I've since fitted a cooler and more water traps I don't have this issue anymore 👍
@Mobileblaster water vapour is a pain in the arse. I've had it so bad every 15 mins you have to choke the pot. Otherwise, you'd just be blowing water.
Yeah after cooler and traps are needed I've added 2 260cfm traps and a 550cfm la man's filter hopefully it stays as it is as its working fine at the moment. Iron silicate is less forgiving with damp media as a posed to crushed glass this seams to flow a tad better even with a bit of damp air 👌
Great job! Amazingly satisfying to watch for some bizarre reason! I’m sure you’re asked all the time, but what would the same job run me, roughly, on a 70 foot narrowboat in reasonably good shape?
Yeah I have a box of spare valves but not 1 that fits that type haha I have plans for the compressor and it would be getting altered from a front mounted manifold👍
If only you had a robot arm that takes care of the big open areas for you! I'm thinking like a pneumatic piston that moves up and down and the whole thing on a cart that advances after every line. Or is there an equivalent to the big lawn mower sized rotating nozzles they use on pressure washers?
They do sell them but the costs involved wouldn't make a good business sense as I don't do boats all the time and I wouldn't have work for such a tool with my workload
Hi it can very so much on average about 20x 25kgs some take more some take less its hard to day really. I cannot remember off the top of my head what this 1 used 👍
@philsheldon2737 I'm not sure to be honest I will keep at it till I find the fault I think it will be something to do with it grabbing air in with the diesel I will find it 😬
@gerryduffy6700 if it is what I think it may be its likely to be a penny or 2 I think a o ring on the filter housing I could be wrong just need abit of time to look at it and time is short at the moment it it will be for a little longer haha😳
Hi, how long have you been doing the hull and I also wanted to know what type of sandblasting you use and what type of grain is the white runner? very nice congratulations, excellent work
Suction control valve stuck open? Maybe blocked fuel filter first thing to check. Base plate looks rather thin and likely also needs blasting otherwise nice job again.
Ideally as soon as possible but it would be fine for weeks even years if it's kept in a dry environment with very low or no humidity. In this environment its likely to last 2 or 3 days before it's passed it's flash point
I use the same stuff names have changed a little coal slag J blast iron silicate ( I call it the black shit when I order it 😂) I mainly use crushed glass but still like how fast the black shit cost and its ability to cut fast glass is slightly cheaper
As always you do a great job, however why do all the owners disregard blasting the bottom.? I realize there is not enough space for you to get under to do the job but that's a boat yard problem, in reality the result is just facial bling they seem to want
The base plate is a separate job and not many people like the extra costs when they are built the sides tend to be 6mm and the base 10mm also if the steel isn't bobbing about in water mixing with oxygen it tends to last longer between service intervals than the sides 👍
hello bro! i can see that your sandblaster works much better than a few months ago (except when it breaks down) have you made any modifications? how much diesel fuel does your doosan consume in an hour of work? thanks
Yeah I've seen them and hope the technology can improve as it's a neat idea but the price of the unit and power needed cannot compair plus they take 100x longer than a blaster on comparable finishings even then they still need sanding to achieve a key for paint I like the idea and more options can only mean better thing for the customer few more year and they will eventually catch up
Good evening, I have been following your work with satisfaction, I had a hoisting company in Brazil, I worked with the ibix blasting machine, an Italian machine, I had a lot of problems with wear on tips and hoses and low productivity, I would like to know about your compressor and blasting equipment and what abrasive do you use? aluminum or iron oxide bound
Hello. What is better grit blasting or dry ice blasting? I suppose it will depend on the circumstances? Related to this kind of work I've seen water cutting through concrete, the compressor had a lorry engine to force water through a pin sized hole on the gun. And the two guys operating it were the only two in the UK certified to operate such an amazing piece of machinery this was in the early eighties though, they said it could cut a man in halve with ease, the gun did look like a German machine gun though. Amazing what this line of work offers, good alternative career change I'd think 🤔👍 *For the video!*
I don't believe dry ice has a massive work load or advantages over a standard pot yes it has a slot in the cleaning sector nut very limited as a soda blaster would work out a heck of a lot cheaper to buy and operate. Dry ice is good if its a very light clean that requires 0 media waste like cleaning food grade stuff in a factory that cannot be shut down but what's the chances of that job calling? In every other aspect a blaster can out perform and under cut a dry ice blaster. I've seen the vhp water jetters in action same again very nich line of work they do but invaluable to the right sector
If I'm allowed to say... dry ice is popular for deep cleaning purposes with cars and such, removing old layers of chassis protection, dried dirt, and grime, as well as cleaning of engines and engines internals and a few other low impact cases.
@mazevx2451 yeah very limited work load. I could say chemicals and steam would do that also soda would do the stubborn stuff I can only think of 1 task a blaster chemicals or steam wouldn't do is cleaning food grade factory's cleaning this would shine but again very limited work load out of all the years I've been operating I've only had 1 enquirie for this
Hello peace be upon you, very nice video. What do you propose for air circulation. Personel ( like a oxygen cylinder ) or ambient ventilation and mask. If ı m not mistaken you are using oxygen cylinder. How much air (liter) do you need per an hour when you are working ?
@paulmiller6277 not really. Pot size don't really make a difference in performance it just give extra blast time between fills. Some small size pots that only hold 1 bag will perform the same as a 8/12 bagger so long as the internal and external pipe work is the same 👍
I cannot remember off the top of my head but it could have been anywhere from 250kgs to 1000kgs sorry if that don't help I don't count the bags as I find it pointless like a say some jobs take what they take so long as it's done and the customer is happy 👌👍
What size nozzle are you using and what psi ?? I used to use a 1/2" nozzle and a 250 cfm compair holman compressor. Once used a 3/4" and a 600cfm compressor 😮 bl00dy ell it was hard work sticking hold of that all day with heavy scangrit 🙄😖😖
1/2" is 2 sizes too big for 250cfm to get optimal psi of 100psi I use 1/2" with 425cfm but that's only because I cannot find a 950 I can get 850 or 1050 just cannot get hold of a 950 I aim for 100psi
Bloody ell that was agressive, I did a small sandblasting job once, and they had sand imported from Greece? (I couldnt read the letters on the bags) and it was so agressive I bet it would remove paint if you threw it by hand... I also blasted some airplane parts with nutshells, it was soft and gentle instead
The reality of the work you do is to put food on the table and keep a roof over your family's head. In essence, they all pay. From the videos I have seen you do have an amazing assortment of clients with different projects. What are your favorite and least favorite projects to tackle, if you can safely answer.
I have a couple of questions: - why did we watch u at the gas station? - who cleans after you? Sand blasting leaves a huge mess behind - i still see some areas with different/lighter shades. Those areas were not blasted ok?
@YamanYamaner 1 your a fully grown man you don't have to watch me doing anything 2 Ryan cleans up.....its not so messy done right 3 my job is to remove the paint rust and crap leaving the surface ready for repaint those areas you talk about I would be wasting my time and money to do something that's not needed 👍
You have to let it get to operating temperature before hitting the demand air button. Same with shutting it down you have to let it cool down before shutting it off
It used to be a #5 nozzle was 5/16" orifice which was 127 c.f.m. at 100 p.s.i., a #6 nozzle was 3/8" orifice which was 196 c.f.m. at 100 p.s.i., a #7 nozzle was 7/16 orifce which was 277 c.f.m at 100 p.s.i., a #8 nozzle was 338 c.f.m. at 100 p.s.i. This is air consumption for the nozzle only. any other air usage such as air fed hood, cool tube, vent at filters, etc ... had to added on top of nozzle usage. any wear on the orifice of the nozzle could upsize the demand.
👌👍 1050 (#10) minimum air requirement 550cfm at 100psi I would love a 950 (#9) but they have stopped making them for some reason I cannot find 1 anywhere I have 450 (#4) all the way to 1050 in all flavours xl fan win double venture and my favourite is 850xl because I have 425cfm at 125psi that's why a 950 would be the better option but as said not for sale anywhere
Doosan operations manual says keep all doors closed as it grabs air and pulls it over and through vital areas like the after cooler also they use the doors a sound control 👍
Well spotted I once had a bad reaction to gloves and it coursed me to slip as they got snagged so I much prefer the control without them I'm not saying it's the right thing to do but I feel more confident and in control without than with gloves. The dust is been collected... and I don't think there are any young children in a working boat yard that would be very irresponsible of the adult in care but what is responsible that all checks were taken before work commencing that lead wasn't present and recycled approved products were used 👍 As mentioned I do check for lead but hear in England lead has been banned since the 60s in production of paints so ive yet to find a 10 year old narrow boat to have such products onit also sillica has been banned since the 60s for use in free dry blasting. I definitely wouldn't advise been inside the Dock when blasting is getting done but it's none carcinogenic or toxic to the environment. Have you any more queries I may be able to help with?
Out of all the videos and different people, you do it the CLEANEST!!! Great job
🫡 thankyou 👌

5:50 You need more abrasive. I can tell by the blueish look of the air stream and slow production.
The blue ish tint is water vapour. Going on that info the media would have been made damp coursing clogs or a choke in the flow of media. I've since fitted a cooler and more water traps I don't have this issue anymore 👍
@Mobileblaster water vapour is a pain in the arse. I've had it so bad every 15 mins you have to choke the pot. Otherwise, you'd just be blowing water.

Hi from Australia how much blasting medium do you get through on an average narrow boat.
Hi it can very so much on average about 20x 25kgs some take more some take less its hard to day really. I cannot remember off the top of my head what this 1 used 👍
Hello Mick, I admire your work. What material do you blast ? Keep sending new videos of your jobs. Rgds Marc

Tidy again Mick ! Any ideas what is wrong with compressor ? Hopefully it’s a simple fix.

How much you reckon to get a specialist to diagnostic the compressor?
@philsheldon2737 I'm not sure to be honest I will keep at it till I find the fault I think it will be something to do with it grabbing air in with the diesel I will find it 😬
Great vlog again Mick. I hope you find the issue with your compressor and that it’s a simple, cheap fix👍
@gerryduffy6700 if it is what I think it may be its likely to be a penny or 2 I think a o ring on the filter housing I could be wrong just need abit of time to look at it and time is short at the moment it it will be for a little longer haha😳
Hi, how long have you been doing the hull and I also wanted to know what type of sandblasting you use and what type of grain is the white runner? very nice congratulations, excellent work

How’s the new trigger working out for you ?
Really impressed with it to be fair 👌
Nice work. How many days did that take?
It was done in the shift around 6 or 7 hour if memory serves 👍
Suction control valve stuck open? Maybe blocked fuel filter first thing to check. Base plate looks rather thin and likely also needs blasting otherwise nice job again.
I think it's drawing air on the filter housing when I've a bit of time I will find out 🫡 the base plate wasn't on the job sheet 😬
Interesting Thanks
1 question ,why doesn’t the bottom flat base get treated ,is it just because its awkward to get to?
They do get done just that they arnt as popular as the sides 👍
Shouldn't the sandblasted steel be covered with paint immediately?
Ideally as soon as possible but it would be fine for weeks even years if it's kept in a dry environment with very low or no humidity. In this environment its likely to last 2 or 3 days before it's passed it's flash point
Decades ago I did some blasting with coal slag, how does that compare to what you use? Abrasiveness-wise, etc
I use the same stuff names have changed a little coal slag J blast iron silicate ( I call it the black shit when I order it 😂) I mainly use crushed glass but still like how fast the black shit cost and its ability to cut fast glass is slightly cheaper
I couriest. Would a soda blaster work as well.
Nope they take very light off on this type of work you need a little more abrasive 👍

R'reet Mick. Tidy job as usual. Was the compressor playing up? Do you ever have to get underneath & sandblast all the base plate on these narrowboats.

Silly question who gets the mess up
The boat yard 👍
@@Mobileblaster so they should you have done all of the hard ,,great job you do
and the time between the blasting and priming?
As soon as possible but it would last weeks even years if it stays dry but humidity starts the process so it all depends on how dry you can keep it
Excuse my ignorance but why is it turning out the grey colour
That's the steel 👍 when it's rolled it cools quicker on the outer edge leaving the milscale 👍
What about the bottom? Did I miss something?
It wasn't on the jobsheet 😎👌👍
I think the compressor needs some repairs, could be an episode!
😏 if it is what I think it is its a very cheap and easy fix hopefully 😎
What about the underside of the boat...? 🤔
@@joebrennan.4389 I only do what I'm told to do 👍
Hi Does it cost a lot to run compressor for 15 / 20 mins & why do you have do that? She playing up 🤬 hope you get fixed soon
You have to let it get to operating temperature before hitting the demand air button. Same with shutting it down you have to let it cool down before shutting it off
It used to be a #5 nozzle was 5/16" orifice which was 127 c.f.m. at 100 p.s.i., a #6 nozzle was 3/8" orifice which was 196 c.f.m. at 100 p.s.i., a #7 nozzle was 7/16 orifce which was 277 c.f.m at 100 p.s.i., a #8 nozzle was 338 c.f.m. at 100 p.s.i. This is air consumption for the nozzle only. any other air usage such as air fed hood, cool tube, vent at filters, etc ... had to added on top of nozzle usage. any wear on the orifice of the nozzle could upsize the demand.
👌👍 1050 (#10) minimum air requirement 550cfm at 100psi
I would love a 950 (#9) but they have stopped making them for some reason I cannot find 1 anywhere I have 450 (#4) all the way to 1050 in all flavours xl fan win double venture and my favourite is 850xl because I have 425cfm at 125psi that's why a 950 would be the better option but as said not for sale anywhere
And the underside ??
That's a separate job 👍
The guy must have hide like a buffalo on his arms and hands.
haha Its defiantly not advised but it works for me :)
We always leave the compressor doors open to keep it cool
Doosan operations manual says keep all doors closed as it grabs air and pulls it over and through vital areas like the after cooler also they use the doors a sound control 👍
Doors should be closed.
No a gloves?
I don't fink it was cold enough 🤔
Aplay blasting
Sorry what?
you dropped 50p on the floor,shake the nozzle more
😂👌
No gloves, no dust collection or water injection to kill the dust. Get the levels of lead in your blood checked, and any young children near by.
Well spotted I once had a bad reaction to gloves and it coursed me to slip as they got snagged so I much prefer the control without them I'm not saying it's the right thing to do but I feel more confident and in control without than with gloves. The dust is been collected... and I don't think there are any young children in a working boat yard that would be very irresponsible of the adult in care but what is responsible that all checks were taken before work commencing that lead wasn't present and recycled approved products were used 👍 As mentioned I do check for lead but hear in England lead has been banned since the 60s in production of paints so ive yet to find a 10 year old narrow boat to have such products onit also sillica has been banned since the 60s for use in free dry blasting. I definitely wouldn't advise been inside the Dock when blasting is getting done but it's none carcinogenic or toxic to the environment. Have you any more queries I may be able to help with?
Noooooo thanks, painfully slow
Show me another method that you use that's quicker and I'm all in ready to invest 👍
What about the bottom?
Wasn't on this job sheet but hears a video with me doing the underside of a narrow boat 🙂 ruclips.net/video/3HQoAxnaV6M/видео.html
