[DeTomaso] NPC Sort of. Dustless Blasting

[Boyd Casey]

My friend has one. He restores cars (as a hobby) and owns a towing
business. He bought it to start a new business. It works great  BUT (it's a
big but" although it is technically "dustless" that does not equate to
clean or not messy. The glass beads get everywhere. Unless you have a
rotisserie upon which you can rotate a car body (so you can hose out al the
glass bead residue) you have a real mess on your hands. You also can't (or
shouldn't )use it on a car with any mechanical components installed. A few
glass beads can destroy an engine , transmission, or any mechanical device
with close tolerances . It does do a great job of removing paint down to
bare metal without damaging the surface. It's also great for cleaning or
stripping parts.
