As always thanks for watching much appreciated!
Hard doing for easy viewing :)
If you are a blaster and require help please drop me a message on here. PLEASE don't email or call asking advice on how to setup or operate your Rig. I need to prioritise my free time doing work calls, emails and quote enquiries. I will always try to respond to comments on my videos :)
kind Regards

I don't envy you but I am in awe and it is quite relaxing to watch. Great job and take care of yourself in the coming year!
😊👌👍
That old loader definitely needed some Mick Blackley Sandblasting magic 😉👍. Great job mate 👍 🇭🇲🏴
😊👌👍
As badly as that thing was scabbed up it came out pretty darn good!
😊👌👍
Last time I saw rust that heavy, was when the plant had been used for loading salt spreading vehicles, including a Ford Transit pick up that had been used internally where it was literally dissolving.
Yeah must have been working in a harsh environment for it to get so bad 👌👍
That blaster does a great job satisfying to watch
😊👌👍
My god that old girl is certainly rusty , probably still structurally sound but the old tin worm has certainly had a go , well done that man, respect 😁👍
😊👌👍
NICE WORK!! Always enjoy your content. I can't wait till I pick up work like you Mick. I'm struggling to take off in central California or people just don't want to pay .🤣 not giving up👍
It does take time to build a decent client base but keep turning nice clean jobs out and you will eventually start to take off wish you the best of luck 👍
Will do. Thank you for that brother. I appreciate the feedback@@Mobileblaster
Looks so much better.
😊👌👍
Does that high volume blaster ever damage the hydraulic hoses or ram tubes when blasting? I do a little shop hobby media blasting but that thing is a beast at the volume and pressure it uses... Thumbs Up!
Yeah it can in the wrong hands 😬👌👍
Absolutely fantastic and fascinating to watch making this look like new again. Question is do you give a fixed price or do you tell them how much after you have finished.
Always a fixed price that way everyone knows exactly what's happening for how much 👍
They make wireless switches that you could use in place of that extra wire you use on your air hose so you would only need to use the air line itself and then a key fob to turn on whatever that wire does. That would eliminate some of the mess of hose and wire you always have to deal with.
Yeah but in emergencies the wire should have a deadman type handle if I drop the pipe it should shut down adding batterys and no link directly to the put can be dangerous if it loses signal etc
@monkeybiz92 yeah but what if it overheats?
Was this in a salt mine or sea environment Mick ?
I didn't get much info on it well I didn't even get a job sheet 😂 we need this blasting is all I got not even we don't want to spend alot or any idea of priority areas 🫣
Nice job mukka.merry Christmas to you and your family
😊👌👍 have a good en pal
Hey Mick, Why’s that JCB so rusty what’s it been used for, Always like watching your videos great content 👍🏻💯🇬🇧
I've no clue I didn't even have a job sheet to tell me what needed doing 😂
Might cover the chrome hydraulic ram shafts so they don't get accidentally blasted. Also stop every now & again to spray undercoat on what you've blasted because bare metal rusts quick. I imagine the insides where you can't blast are even worse rusted.
Don't worry about stuff like that it's fine I'm a professional 😏 stopping to paint means I would have to stop for the shift so it could dry 😕 if someone wants to spend the time to strip it I will blast it and it would be OK but the man hours involved it's not really worth the effort for what it is.
And all the hydraulic hoses😬
@@daleolson3506 don't worry about them the fine 😎
@ashleigh2253 I do say in the video not to worry about pipes and rams etc I do point out what is a problem but no one questions that and it's possibly the easiest and most expensive error I could make 🫣 its near impossible to damage the rams I once blasted an old chrome ram for extensive amounts of time and I still didn't see any sign of blasting don't take this as anyone can do this and you will be fine alot more is happening in these videos than point and squirt skill and knowledge is ernt by trial and error and believe me I've made enough cock ups in my blasting time 😏
@ashleigh2253 😬 sorry mate I was reading the feed and still trying to put that straight your perfectly right painting as ya go would make the job near impossible to complete in the time allocated.
It's crazy how fast it starts rusting. I saw a SB-ing project where they had a rust inhibiting additive.
What I really struggle to imagine is how that thing's going to get painted without disassembly.
Ya never see a rusty run 😂
Future video idea: Discuss the implications of getting sand into the pivot bushings vs crushed glass. I am assuming the glass is soft enough not to destroy the bushing this is why you have not masked these areas off ? Thank you.
Sand, glass, iron silicate it wouldn't make much difference alot more is going off than what's shown in the videos I'm not a how too channel. Mainly because alot can go wrong really fast and someone may get hurt trying to do this.
Wow. It looks fantastic. 👍👍👍
😊👌👍
4:40 start.
👍
hello Mick Blackley SandBlaster & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy
😊 thanks for watching Randy 👌👍
Probably been on council salt duty for many years to be that rusty..now getting it ready for a paint 'overhaul' in time for auction...
😂 most likely haha
Hey Mick, I have watched most of your videos and you may have answered this question but I haven't heard it. How do you price your work? Here in the US, you pretty much have to get a quote on everything one piece at a time. I would think that it is much easier to price the job by time and materials, that way you don't mis judge how much time you will have in it. Also, there are many different degrees of surface prep. Some customers just want a quick once over and others want 3 times as much. Just wondering because I got tired of guess what it would cost me to get the work done. I bought a 375cfm sullivan and a 3 cubic feet clemco set up to do my own work and learn the process. I don't care to do it for other people but may hire my guys out when they have time.
Everything will come with experience I know it's going to cost me and how long etc I add my labour and make sure the customer and you know what's exactly going to happen and how long it's likely to take don't try and compete with other quotes make sure you do a good job and your happy with your price that way you will win 👍 other words make sure your happy with your quote (would you pay that for the same service?) Don't undercut yourself as all your outgoings have to come out of your labour ie van tax services etc etc....
Why did you put the machine in the mud for? makes for a very difficult environment to work in.
It's the most suitable area as my work is very noisy and lots of folk work all over this yard if I can get as far away as possible makes for a better working environment for others 👍
Get that compressor serviced before it lets you down Mick.. would make a good video to mate👍🏻
When I do service it I plan on taking it out of the van so I can remove some panels I fink I need to try and reduce the payload of the van as the mpg is bad to say the least
After you finish with sandblasting the majority of the machine, does another company come in to repaint it, or is it left bare metal?
@@ericcleland817 I work for the company that's painting it 👍
wow that's therapy , just like pressure washing , nice kit you have , how much would you spend on media for the tractor.
Thankyou and sorry I didn't count 👍
Perfect
😊👌👍
Hard Graft well done son
😊👍👌
daaang mick that loader looks like its been playin in the salt came out lookin alright though
They said its likely to be scrap engine wise it only needed a flyby rev pedal the rest was cosmetic 😏
Awesome video thanks for your time and consideration top job Mick i hope you have a great Christmas and new year bud 🇬🇧🛠️🔧🚛🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thanks mate same to you 😊👌👍
Great Job, I have a question what's the next step for the painting of this machine after sand blasting ? I would like to know what's the easiest way to remove those holes made with rust. Do you apply the direct finish paint suitable for direct application on metal or 2k primer?
Usually just paint it or if your fussed fill it with normal car body filler and then paint it
Put some screws in the control panel Mick ! Driving me mad here. I’ll pop and do it myself 😂
😂 I keep meaning to do it when the curtain is open but I always forget 😂
so sand does not affect the hydraulic cylinder rod surfaces and seals ? hmmm...
Not the way I do things 👌 👍
Awesome job. Don't your arms get exhausted holding that blasting nozzle for so long? cheers.
Yeah its something folk overlook 😬 hard doing for easy viewing 😊👍👌
This is hard work, think about using arm and back braces to prevent long term ligament damage.
@NICK-uy3nl After the years under the hood, ya body gets ust to it 😂 if I keep the psi to 100 I can just about cope with 425cfm @ 100psi I do a job that's 2500cfm @ 175psi and I must say I do struggle to put a shift in 😬 I must be getting old haha 1 thing I do know I cannot see myself doing this job till retirement age what idiot thort that up eh?
Do you know if that stone crusher is going to be for sale?
More than likely mate not sure if it's ready or fully repaired yet though
Cheers bud. Who would I get in touch with to find out about it
At what point does the rust pitting start to become a structural issue on plate steel?
I suppose when it fails this is surface rust this isn't rot 👌👍
Pitting is a form of section loss so you need to analyse the cross section to account for it.
Hi Mick Do You Plug Your Hood Directly to The Compressor or Do You put It Through a Separate Filter.
Thanks Darren Ireland.
To a separate filter 👌👍
@@Mobileblaster 👍🍀
MASHALLAH
nice work bro
👍
Hola hermano, es hipnotizante y agradable ver tus videos. Quiero preguntar, cuál o qué tipo de maquina es la sandblaster? Qué marca o modelo?
It's a presure pot I'm not brand loyal they all will do the same job just depends on what workload you have and pick a pot that suits your needs bit like buying a car the isn't just 1 suits all they all do the same job just some is better in your circumstances 👌👍
Were they driving that into the sea? It is horrendous condition for plant of that quality. Looks like salt corrosion.
Some people won't spend money on something that's doing its job. Then it gets to the point alot of stuff is wrong with it and it looks a mess then they see it as scrap or low value that's when this company offers a replacement and a deal too good to turn down 😬
Mick you need one of those inflatable buildings 😊😊😊😊
It would be nice but I'm limited on room in the tuck 😬😊👌👍
Poor machine ..... looks like it endured a long & hard life in a salt mine.
Definitely needed a paint job 😊👌👍
“I don’t like sand. It’s coarse and rough and irritating… and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here everything is soft and smooth.” - Anakin Skywalker (to Padmé) from the movie Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002)
I've not seen any star wars films 😕
The quote from the movie is a famous quote used in a lot of memes. It seemed kind of appropriate. 😊
@@jakeeasterwood9317 😊 not 1 I'm familiar with 😬
Cutting across the front plate with the big flakes - that's the good shit
😎 🍻
Would it be worth it in time and materials to run a needle gun over the heavy rust spots first?
Not really a blaster that's setup properly will out perform a needle gun. It's an option if the cfm or psi isn't very much
28:58 The most satisfying moments..
@@matkenangan 😊👌👍
Maintain your equipment. It’s a huge part of making your living.
I do 😏👍👌
1500 quid for a service or HOW MUCH to replace when it catastrophically fails?
Yeah but I've got 60 or so hours left before it's due right around the 12 month mark I'm going to run the air end for another 500 hours as with all my other compressors the service interval for that is 1000 hours I've got fresh air filters just need derv and oil filters I was going to put a new tank onit externally so this can all be done at the same time 😊
That loader was probably not the worst either of us has ever seen, but it was definitely pretty scabby.
I was unsure why they had the plan of stripping it for parts but at least it should stay in service for some good time yet 👌👍
Looks like it was used to load salt.
That is a possibility as it's quite far gone for normal corrosion
How did he let it get that bad?
Possible its location of work maybe I don't really know to be honest
Don’t you have a dry place for you to work.?
Unfortunately no 😒
Looks like your resistance to servicing has already done some damage.. big end noise evident.😢
Its got 60 or so hours left I normally like to service them just before the hours it says but I'm just going to have to wait till after Xmas now 😬👌👍
What media are you using? Great job..
Crushed glass 👍
hie how long did this project take to complete?
I cannot remember off the top of my head but it was done in the shift 👌👍
Lets be honest ...not many people would buy a machine with that much rust thats salt damage.... But blasting it and panting it the machine will easy sell... Lipstick on a pig lol.... Mick do you ever pick stuff up yourself and blast it then paint and resell it when your slow ... Be nice if you had a pick pop up style tent to keep you dry .
I have blasted my own projects in the past but nothing that I've tried to tart up and sell on I don't really have the time or space to do that sort of thing. Tents would be nice but I would have to find 1 suitable plus not too big so it can be setup by 1 person 😬
@@Mobileblaster glad your busy enough mate. I know in Canada with the economy shift my local sand blast guy has started to do flips more and also he had a drop off day where you can drop off smaller parts for blasting ...this is also a day when it's rains... . Glad you busy
@robertmccall8666 yeah I ust to do drop off days untill the scrap man wiped me out of customers stuff I paid out for new and didn't even get a penny from blasting them 😕 so I stopped all that 🫣
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
👍
Mmm nice and crusty
😬👌👍
I thought you said you didn't want to do a £1500 maintenance service on your equipment surely you have put money away for doing general maintenance to keep your tools running in good order
Yeah but it's come slightly quicker than I planned for I'm going to get Xmas and my tax bill out the way 1st 🫣
What tyoe of lenses are you using
Nova 3 Chinese copy version 😊👍
The nozzle should be held at angle as opposed to pound the surface.
@ExtremeRecluse it doesn't make a difference I've done plenty of testing and timing (media control is way more important if its set too high then yes you need to be at an angle) if its too low your too slow just right and it makes no odds if its straight on or at an angle
Where do you mount your camera?
On to the helmet 👌👍
Was that thing hauling acid😅
🤔 what ever it's been upto its definitely keeping me in a job 😂👍
Aluminum oxide? I can taste the rust without even being there.
Crushed glass 👍
Did he say 1500 pounds for this job. That is cheap.
@ExtremeRecluse Nope I didn't mention costs it wasn't anything near 1500 it was a lot less!
For some reason that’s what they always say “it’s just a lil job!!” “Won’t take you too long to knock it out” 1 week later and there lining more work up for you!! Thinking there your only customers!!🙄..🤣😂🤣
😊 people get the bug 😏 when they see how fast and nice the finish is they then tend to start looking for other stuff that needs doing 😂👌
I swear every brand of equipment now is painted extremely poorly, no undercoat paint peels off within 12 months if living coastal.
It could have been a result of its working environment I'm not sure of its back story so I don't know for sure
This looks like powder coating. PC is great in some areas but not in damp and wet conditions. The moisture gets under the coating and erodes the metal very easily. In these conditions a high quality primer (2 part epoxy) over a well prepared and mildly heated steel is superior. The finish coat will out perform most PC.
@darrylkenes7424 it may be a better option but uk have strick laws on what bodyshops (paint shops) can use on this type of equipment. I'm not 100% sure on this but any commercial paint shop is governed to water-based paint like I say it could be a gray area and im not uptodate with it been specialist equipment just another reason why I stay away from painting 😂
interesting @@Mobileblaster
I need a jobbbbbb
💪👌👍
@@Mobileblaster can i work for You!!?🧐
@jesuslibillopatracasalinas Unfortunately I'm not setting on at the moment I wish you luck and hope you get sorted though 👌👍
Hope so!!!👍👍👍
worst thing to do to machine
Please explain why? Would you scrap it and buy new?
@@Mobileblaster sand blasting gets in all the leavers and cylinder s kills the whole machine in short order ask me why i know
@mikemcoooo bad operator I can blast you any unit and prove that it don't if its done right. This isn't my 1st rodeo I get this all the time bad operators give the industry a bad name please have a snoop through my other videos I prove it time and time again. Your still going to say otherwise but why would I still be blasting for this company 15+ year if I was coursing damage?
Considering the age of the machine I would say the original paint job was rubbish.
Probably more along the lines of the environment, it was working in. But I don't know the back store on this just from what I've seen before 👍
@@Mobileblaster educated guess that's a one top coat paint job onto bare metal no primer, seeing everything is rust or yellow, no red oxide or zinc primer (beige) or grey etch primer... but yeah I guess the work environment was incompatible with the paint quality 😂
@markbowden7238 I've noticed a lot of companies like volvo for sure are starting to use some kind of plastic paint 1 coat kinda reacts like powder coat when blasted but not powder coat. They need to stop as it seams to fail at the same rate as paint but harder to fully remove the remaining residue. Harder work for me haha that's why they need to stop 😂
@@Mobileblaster it's all swings and roundabouts at the end of the day👍
I'm a sole trader I get paid to take paint off old windows, then I repair them and paint them.
Presumably they had a painter organised to come in behind you before it rains 🤣
@markbowden7238 I heard it got left out all Xmas and they may need it doing again but that could be just a wisper that's not ture it's not confirmed yet just have to wait and see if they book me back in 😎
should not be allowed to sandblast paint and turn it into micro plastic on the ground
So what your saying is scrap the unit and built a new 1? Before that sounds like a negative reply please note alot more is going off than point and squirt alot of checks, experience and knowledge tells me the paint was water based and biodegradable the media used was none toxic and recycled. Please just enjoy the video and not worry about the stuff I don't show 👍 repair rather than replace 👌
@@Mobileblaster i know that repair rather than replace is a good thing to do and to replace that machine will have a bigger carbon foot print. Even if that paint is water based paint, how about the oil/grease and stickers? It is not much but it is some today, tomorrow and so on. There is options to do a job like that cleaner but it will be more time consuming and expensive. Like a heavy duty tarp under the machine or a ''on a spot rebuildable work area or paint booth. But still I enjoyed the time watching, even that I can still give you my feedback.
@i--dont--know yeah, I appreciate constructive criticism it's the way we all learn and find new things out as we go I can only give my side as to why I don't do those things I'm limited with the licence I have to carry any more equipment a pop-up booth would be ideal but the way I thought was if I research the paint media and find its none toxic and biodegradable it will eventually be like I've not been there. As for stickers and grease ideally, these should be removed beforehand but the time and effort needed would put this job over what's feasible and ultimately end up making the job too costly to do. Then I'm out of work it's hard enough finding work if I start putting a bill in for erecting pop-up tents etc I simply wouldn't get any work. It's a little bit harsh to say this sort of work shouldn't be allowed all I'm trying to do is put food on the table and document my work for others to enjoy
You should not be allowed to comment. Guy wasting electricity watching vids on youtube virtue signaling about carbon foot print, and micro plastics. Probably spending money on smart devices upgrading his phone/tvs every year. Does any one with a brain buy into what you're saying? Clearly you don't, simply bc you're commenting here. You probably voted to ban plastic bags from stores, while continuing to buy foods packaged in plastic containers, buying ziplock bags, sodas and upright freezers. Even when dude placates you (even though he should have just gave you the finger), you double down on criticism by moving goal post. Go virtue signal somewhere else.
You should not be allowed to reproduce...

nice work bro
👍
love u my dear
Blasting flaking rust is very satisfying - and this appears to be the motherload... Thanks for the videos. Stay safe and and dust free out there.
😊👌👍
sandblasting rust is satisfying, i got to sandblast and old plow at my work. it was thick with rust.
It's fun at start but that soon goes away 😂👌👍
Super jest do wyczyszczonej odrestaurowane ile taka piaskarka kosztuje mniej więcej Pozdrawiam serdecznie. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
It depends what sort of rig you're needing for the work load you plan on taking on 👍
Proper job that. Now he makes an annual pilgrimage to Benidorm or Thailand.
Festa in November 😂👌👍
I have a few questions, though it's not about [industrial sand blasting] it's mostly sand blasting at home. but still you might be able to answer them:
0: I have a older dirt bike with [not much] rust on it, and i wanted to sand blast it off [gas tank and silencer / exhaust pipe. soem some small parts
0: i bought BLack Beauty to sand blast with, because it was cheap and literally no stores in my area had anything else. $20 for 60 pound bag.
0: i did use to sand blast the smaller parts first [heat shield for the silencer].
QUESTION TIME:
1: is it normal to discolor the metal. it seems the black beauty, while removing the rust also made the metal a light grey and kinda looked like rainbowish idk? i took some sand paper to it [like 120 grit? i think] it took this grey off and the metal was shiny under it.
2: should i switch to a different sand blasting media instead because of this discoloration, i need to / plan to Paint the parts afterwards and am unsure how this discoloration will effect it. [i tried soap and water and that did nothing to this grey ish coating that came from the black beauty media.
3: should i just bring this stuff to a place and have them blast it for me instead?
--
the plan it to strip the paint and rust, then hit the parts [depending on the parts] with self etching paint, let it dry, lightly sand it with like 2000 grit, and coat it, and then 2000 grit again, and paint it [with some more steps after that.
Not sure what black beauty is iron silicate? If so that's way too harsh for what you need.
Saying that it will be OK if your not blasting at too high of psi or cfm don't worry about the dark gray results so long as the old paint and rust is removed blow of with air line and prim it should be fine 👍
Black Beauty is the trade name for coal slag abrasive. It does leave a dull gray surface after blasting. If you get all the dust off though, it will produce a good surface for painting. If you want a really clean white surface after blasting try crushed glass abrasive 40/70 grit (NOT glass beads). It should not be hard to find. In the USA it is available at Harbor Freight stores.
