Hey Graham,

Greatly appreciate the shop tour today and the info. Nice to know some locals with strong interest and knowledge on the auto front.

Judging by what you and the fella next door had in the shop today, there can't be too much you guys haven't blasted , painted, painted, blasted, painted, blasted & painted...

Keep up the good work.

I hope to have my hatch down your way in the not too distant future!

Cheers, Scott

Not many people see just how quick the paint can come off a vehicle.

That is a lot quicker than I expected. I will assume that is one of the reasons you use glass? And I suppose the used glass is easier to clean and re-use than other media?

mate cant reuse it, after its used its like powder. thats the hardest part of the job is cleaning up saturday mornings after blasting a few cars each week.

check the old XK ute rust free. also HZ sandman
