After I came out of the Forces, I spent 35 years in Ship Repair Yards on the Tyne and have seen a lot of really big blasting jobs. Yet I still watched this vid to the end. There is something about blasting that is enjoyable to watch.👍👍
😂👌👍 it is therapeutic 😊
Love seeing the rust flying off and the finished project
😊👌👍
Good on you, son! Brave lad to actually be willing to work for a living and being a credit to your craft. God bless ya’…..
Thankyou 😊👌👍
Nice job Mick. The boatyard should have cut those rubbing strakes off before you blasted it. Welded every couple of feet and only along the top is very old fashioned and a recipe for disaster, it harbours rust from day one and underneath them is probably the deepest pitting.
😊👌👍
Nice job 👍 and love the backing music.
😊👌👍
Great stuff! Nice to see how you hold the hose! Left hand takes the weight and right for the nozzle! Music is good as well chilled out and start was a bit of synthwave 😃😃😃😃❤️
😊👌👍
There is nothing really to this job.............except that you are good at it.
😂 thankyou I will take that as a compliment as I can tell you its not as easy as it looks 👌👍 every skilled trades person that makes it look easy is a master of that craft 😊👍
Sorry but he is an independent contractor…you are overlooking maintenance on the compressors, maintaining material levels and a facility to bring the set up to the job…then comes the bloody paperwork, taxes, maintenance of the wife and family…much more than directing the blast media at the work surface…add to that he’s probably humping 60+ hours a week and not getting overtime pay….sorry to rant but this guy is a stud…
Pretty relaxing to see you work
😊👌👍
Good man, good equipment, great job. Thank you for sharing your work.
😊👌👍
Lol... POV - Looks like it's being painted not sand blasted. Good job, all the best. 👍❤️
😊👌👍
Great job. I wasn't crazy bout the music...till i found the volume button lol.
Good to see the positive air feed. I hope it had a cooling affect for you. Cheers
Thanks for the video
I'm open to change the music so long as it's copyright free and free to use point me in the right direction we can make good things happen 😊 yeah I have air into the helmet compressed air is bad air so it's filtered but it's still only grade D air breathable but not good but I suppose its better than breathing the dust 😂 although it's none carcinogenic I still wouldn't want to breath it 👌👍
Looks like a blast !!!!
😂👌👍
Great job Mick 👏 👍. She definitely needed a good clean up 👌
😊👌👍 Nice for the video hard to keep pushing it away from the fresh steel 😬
Question. What about the underside?
Would love doing this job, I’m so jealous!
It looks a lot better than it is 😏 you get covered in crap all day every day wrestling with a pipe that the kickback is like holding 15/20kgs all day and to top it off the noise is well loud noise haha
@@Mobileblaster Shhh! You're supposed to gloat and brag about what an amazing job you have and how it's far superior to mine. Don't you know how comment sections work? 😂 Seriously though, thanks for sharing!
@@PrincessNicEssus 😂
Oh man is that satisfying
I would so enjoy doing that!
😊👌👍
Love these videos, I would like to see a clock or timer so we can see how many hours work was involved running in a corner would be interesting
😊👌👍
Think it would be good if you record the complete process from cleaning to final paint
Paint isn't my job and I'm not around when it gets done if youtube paid enough for me to have time off work I would definitely be around to film it all but unfortunately it don't work like that 😊👌👍
some gnarly looking pitting on that steel
😬👌👍
Not sure how old that boat is but totally needs new anodes lol. Maybe some pad welding on the pits. Absolutely shocking welding on the rubbing strakes. Full top and bottom or you asking for a lot of trouble down the line. Can already see its starting to go. Oh and additional: You did a lovely job.
Yeah the should be a standard to follow with the welding 😊👌👍
I forgot if I mentioned in my previous comments, sorry if it's repetitive.
Would it be possible to do a before and after quick shot on some of these gnarly projects. I really would have enjoyed one for this project.
👍
Shes had a rough life hope they give that boat a high quality paint job!
😊👌👍
oooh shes got the bubblin rust goin on but shes lookin far far better after you got done
😊👌👍
Many, many dunes later… I wonder what do you with all the dirt afterwards? still cool project 👍
I do a deal with the boat yard they clean up afterwards they let me blast they pay me then when paint or cleaning is a concern its all down to the boat yard 👌👍 I can clean etc but obviously I've to bill for my time it's all worked into the deal 👌👍
I've done that on my dads narrowboat but we used a grinder and steel wheels. I wish I had your number back then 😅
😂
Another one in the books!👍. What abrasive do you use btw
This was a mix of glass and iron silicate 👍
I've always wondered. do they clean up the media/rust/epoxy mess on the ground before letting the water back into the drydock? I would imagine there is some sort of environmental regulations that dictate this, especially in the UK where they seem to regulate the crap out of everything.
No clean up in most dry docks that i have seen in my 20 years on a boat. Mustn't say that nobody bothers tho.
Yes it's all part of the process I have a deal with the dry Dock owner I only do the blasting they take care of docking cleaning and painting/ re floating 👌👍
I leave my empty media sacks they fill them and dispose appropriately 👍
Might be a silly question but here goes.... Often seen, what I can only describe, as "sparks" flying off with the paint and crud as you are blasting. Are they sparks or just debris glinting in the light?
Yeah they will be sparks it causes a lot of friction they are classified as cold sparks and won't course a flame 👍
What do the bottoms of those boats look like if thats how the sides look?
Every one I've blasted in the past always seam to be in alot better shape its the water line that's bobbing in and out of the water that's always the worse bit 👍
Hey thanks for the video I just have a one small question on this
What if you do all the standing and Restoration of the surface and then apply the marine paint and next do a nice polish finally how about applying ceramic coating?
Just curious to know what your thoughts are
Thanks buddy have a great day🎉
It would be very costly doing that I would have thought. Plus the canal is worse than parking a car in a shopping trolley park 😂 it needs to be thick and hard paint I would think well waxed would help keep it clean for as long as possible
@@Mobileblaster hey thanks nice to hear from you from somewhere in the world I can understand your concern 🌎 Cheers
I think we’re gonna need a bigger wand! Boom
@@davidbrown-55 😏
imagine doing this to the whole boat of sandblasting would take hours!
Without blasting?
Something about taking crud off the surface of stuff to make it look new again 😊
😊👌👍
Good job
😊👌👍
Super jest to zrobione i odrestaurowane pozdrawiam serdecznie 👍👍👍👍👍
😊👌👍
Has to be painted before call it restored.
@jeanettecoleman-mz7ie that's why I titled it prep work 👍
wouldn't a flare tip be a bit faster.?
No because you lose the hotspot yes it's wider spread but less concentration I need to know I've etched the steel not just removing the paint and crap 👌👍
ok so the sides have been done, how about the bottom? especially where the current wood supports are located?
@davekent2088 the base isn't as popular as the steel is thicker and its not bobbing in and out of the water that's were the rust happens the most
What happens to the pile of sand, rust and paint left over, there must be a huge amount of debris to dispose of?
That's part of the deal I've got with the boat yard business deals isn't part of my channel so I don't include this 👌👍
as a fng to blasting, what is the grit that you normally use? big grit for heavy pitting I guess???
Very similar principle to sanding with sandpaper 👍
What happened to the bottom of the narrow boat?
Duno and I don't really care haha I did what I was told 😅
Odd question but do you see this trade changing much in the future? Like moving to lasers etc
Yes but not yet as the technology isn't ready its likely to be a long time away as the price of the units are way too much for something that don't do half as much as a blast pot 👍
Lasers are good at removing paint and surface rust or prepping a surface for painintg but they can't get rid of scaling or "bubble" rust like you see on the side of the boat here since it just vaporizes the rust on the top.
It's why sandblasting or grinding will always have a place for really thick and deep rust is present.
Makes a change to have plenty of room around the boat. 👍
😊👌👍
I wonder, how much sand to be used for this job ?. Kindly tell me . Thanks.
I didn't count unfortunately
how much sands that he spend for this boat? 😮😮😮
Not sure exactly
Should do a video follow up on the cleanup…
That's not my job on these 😬 I leave this to the boat yard 😊👌👍
Yeah, I would introduce high pressure water in with your sandblasting. Keep the dust down, okay, it gets wet, but no dust. Think about it
It's not no dust it's dustless... but the chemical needed to stop it rusting cost makes the job out of reach it almost dubbles the cost hence doing it like this 👍
CANNOT BELIEVE THE CUSTOMER PAYING FOR A SIDES ONLY SHOT BLAST ??... AS FOR NOT DOING THE BOTTON, AND REMOVING ALL THE OLD ANODE BRACKETS 17:00 AND RUBBING STRAKES, BEFORE SHOT BLASTING, I'M FLABBERGASTED, AS THOSE ARE THE AREAS WHERE THE CORROSION WILL BE THE WORST, UNDERNEATH THEM... COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY JUST DOING THE SIDES... MUST BE HOPING THE BUYER DOESNT LOOK AT THE BOTTOM, AND THE OLD ANODE BRACKETS LEFT WELDED ON... YOU CAN ADVISE THE CUSTOMER, WHAT SHOULD BE DONE, BUT AS ALWAYS, GIVE THE CUSTOMERS WHAT, THE CUSTOMER WANTS... EXCELLENT VIDEO, STAY SAFE
Base plates aren't normally as bad as the sides they are made of thicker mettle and they arnt bobbing in and out of the water that's the bit that rusts up the fastest
Have you considered dry ice blasting. Lots of less residue to collect
It won't do this well it would but its like trying to use wet and dry sandpaper when you need 40 grit
Do they blast the bottom as well?
Not on this job but I've done them beforehand 👌👍
Great job, but that lower D bar only been stitched along its length, very bad practice! One good way to trap water then rot and rust sets in!
😊👌👍 I've seen that before should be like you say fully welded stop the water getting behind it problem solved 👌
I wonder how many itchy sunburnt folks watch this and envy the boat some 😅
😂
What about the bottom?
@@zdk1099 I didn't get asked to do the underside 👍
What abort the bottom of the boat?
Best regards from Denmark
I wasn't asked to do that bit 😊👌👍
Using a Laser does a much better job and cleaner as well
😂 OK show me the videos.... and I will explain why it wouldn't do this type of work
On average, how old are these narrowboats?
They can be anything from 2 to 50 year old I don't think I've blasted anything older than 50 year but to be honest I don't ask anymore 😂
do you do the bottom?
Yeah but not on this job sheet 👍
Awful to see that the sacrificial rubbing band has only been welded every 2ft or so. probably means no welding to the bottom edge. i'm guessing that even with 2k blacking, it will be showing rust, within 12 months.
Could you have applied a silicone bead to seal the rubbing band top and bottom ( just a thought)
I've seen that done before 👍
Any plans on switching to a laser system?
If only the technology was ready then maybe but as it stands they arnt ready to be in this kind of industry 👍
@@Mobileblaster Oh are they not strong enough for this application?
@simonelt7317 Not really a matter of strength, the laser systems can weld the metal when turned up. THe problem lies in how they function. The laser will only vaporize the very upper layers of the rust when it is scaling or bubbling making it look clean but the thick rust is still there. Sandblasting will remove the large chunks of deep rust and exposes the pitted surface.
They are good at removing surface rust, paint and other stuff just before priming and painting though.
@SilvaDreams From what I've seen they seem overpriced and underperform I've yet to be convinced they can do productive work in a reasonable time frame
@Mobileblaster Like I said they are great for light surface rust, getting rid of anti-corrosion stuff on new sheet metal or any paints or primers (they'll even remove powder coating easily) but they aren't good for what you do which is remove heavy or deep rust which requires potential patch work afterwords.
Each has their strengths and neither will remove the other.
How you blast looks nice for the video but not very efficent 😉 hope you know that😝
🤔 what you mean can you see how I can improve? Please explain
@@Mobileblaster what I mean is that instead of going like this top to bottom or left-right stripes/lines that look satisfying it actually takes longer and uses more abrasive. You should constantly wave it with a short sweeping motion or like a small circle. Don’t know how to explain it better😊 this way you can tell sooner that the area is already clean and save a considerable amount of time and material, and depending on what is the goal - on top of better efficiency it’s easier to achieve an SA 2 1/2, which in my experience is most common requirement. I’m doing sandblasting and painting for close to a decade now, been learning from the best and experimented a lot 😊 thats my 2 cents, sorry if I bothered you 🙃
what about the bottom?
It wasn't on the jobsheet 👍
使った砂はどうやって処分するの？
You leave it to the professionals 👍
I hope you had a good audio book to listen to.
😂👌👍
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
😊👌👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏😁😁
😊👌👍
Water bla as ting is much easier and better
Better? You cannot paint over wet or rusty steel
I expect you're the wrong person to ask about this since you do sand blasting not narrowboat restoration, but I often wonder if there's some rule about having to paint a narrowboat in an "old timey" fashion. I've never seen one done up to look like an actual modern boat. And most have older style interiors too.
Depends were your looking loads of people building new boats with fresh builds on the interior
@@Mobileblaster I guess I just haven't looked hard enough online for videos from those kinds of boat owners then. I just always find boats that look nice, but don't exactly have what I'd call "upscale" exteriors or interiors.
Я б не принял работу с остатками старой краски в порах. Халтура.
Eva Google Translation isn't doing its thing properly or you're not watching the video blasting removes the old paint rust and crap it doesn't push it into the none existing pores of the steel 👍
....he missed a spot.....
You can have that for free...
Get a laser…..
To do what............. please know what your talking about before telling someone to do something. If you think a laser can do this work in a timely cost affective manner show me videos of it working 👍 because I've done alot of research as this is my area of expertise and I've yet to find anything that can even come close
А как днище обрабатываете! Борта то понятно.
I didn't get asked to on this job but it would be as you would expect crawl under and blast 👍
Fuxk me MIck they spoiling you in that boat yard with all that space to work & it's actually dry LOL
😂👌👍
Your entire theory is flawed. I saw the welds. They’re at most 12” apart, with several being closer. The you inserted the word “probably”. Bad math + assumptions = Uneducated guess.
Sorry what are you going on about?
Yes. Please in English if you’re going to critisize!!
As is poor spelling.
