Sandblasting
« on: June 16, 2011, 08:24:20 PM »
Jay has finished all the body parts on the jeep...I now need to sandblast! I was hoping to do myself but have no time plus the only place I know (consolidated) to blast yourself is $90 hr! Does anyone know any other sandblasting places?

I just called consolidated a couple days ago and was told $110/hr. Seems a bit steep for DIY.

Actually it is cheap.  You will spend more on sand in an hour with a big machine like they use.  We have a blaster at work and I can guarantee $110 in sand is gone much faster than one hour.  You can sand blast a lot of stuff in an hour.

At consolidated I did my entire jeep tub, inside & out, top & bottom in under an hour. They have a pretty good setup and equipment.
Just dump all your parts on the ground, walk around blasting, flip 'em over and carry on.
