Tradio restoration Chronicles

Every time I do it, Something goes wrong. First I bought fine sand and the nmachine could not handle it. Then I bought slag and it worked but it shot out too much at a time. Finally got it right and then ran out of it. Got more today and started ok. Then Moisture clogged the darn thing. I had to empty it and now have to wait for it to dry out. Another day wasted!

Grrrrrrrrrr.

Kirk;
  As I told you so, you are doing things the hard way. Go back to the thread on the clubhouse phorum where we were discussing rust and paint stripping by electrolysis. All you need are some cheap household chemicals, scrap metal, a low voltage DC power supply, and some water, that's it. Unlike blasting you don't have to worry about running out of media to blast with, or it getting dull, in fact you can use it until the water and baking/washing solution fouls which takes a long time.

Arran
