Sand / shot blasting

[Jackroadkill]

How much should I expect to pay to have four steel wheels blasted clean of all their paint? Any advice gratefully received.

Cheers,

JR

any where between £10 and £20 a wheel mate

Depends, I've heard of daft prices like £25 a wheel. If you had access to the gear, you'd do them in half hour or so (4).

I used to have access to a pretty large blast cabinet, gutted I dont anymore. It was ace when rebuilding cars.

Look on Yell & ask around for quotes.
Maybe drop by some engineering shops, they often have them & arent necessarily blasters by trade, so wont charge the earth, maybe ask if you can do them & pay for use of the machine???

Cool. That sounds good. Have some SR steelies on the way and am going to have a crack at refurbing them - thought a blast would be a good place to start. Thanks fellas.

Knew the right fella? I've been racking m brains but I can't think of anyone I know who's got a cabinet...

go to anyone who does powder coating they will know blasters, where abouts are you? maybe someone on here can help you.

I'm in the ****-end of Mid-Wales, so I think I'm on me own!

Take them and get them all powder coated, will only cost about a hundred quid that way no mess, no materials etc needed and you'll get a mint finish
