MMLJ Manufacturing has been building blast equipment for over 70 years, and we're still the only manufacturer who offers a lifetime warranty on blast tanks. 70 years of research and development has brought us to the Dustless Blaster, which we believe is the most significant advancement in blast technology in 60 years. Made in the USA, committed to quality and customer service.
Agreed, Mark - it's the hardest part of the job. When we talk to our customers about cleanup, they often tell us that they subcontract cleaning out to a cleanup crew and factor that into their initial bid. If you haven't seen our latest episode of Pointers with the Pros with Bison Blasting, I recommend you check it out. There's a long discussion about cleanup there.
Hi, looks like that's a hard, angular abrasive typically used for rust or mill scale removal. It'll likely cut through wood very fast and leave a rough profile. Depending on what you're going for, that may not be what you want. Definitely do a test blast to see for yourself. Start with a low blast pressure and far standoff distance. For a softer touch and smoother finish, we'd recommend blasting with something gentler like corn cob or walnut shell. Check out our Pointers with the Pros series. The episode called "Restoring log homes" describes why gentler is better when it comes to blasting wood.
@@DustlessBlasting-MMLJ Your answer is so professional. Walnut shells are made through crushing, strict screening, grading, and multiple processes of refinement. Walnut shells have high hardness, strong adsorption, good wear resistance, durability, and good elasticity. They can be mixed with silicon carbide abrasives and are ideal polishing and grinding materials!

Wow ! I built many of those old blasters back in the day when Sanstorm was over off I-10. We rolled our own shells and pressed many heads for the blister tanks and baffles.. The units with the blister tanks on front were all hand welded with 3/16 Jet rods set up on fixture with bearings that we turned by hand. I'm almost certain that if I had all the parts, I could still fab up and weld out.
Hi! Yes, you can mix the two. Take a look at ARMEX, they add flow aids and moisture control additives to their soda media. Here's a link to read more: www.armex.com/resources/vapor-blasting-with-armex/
Hi! Yes, you can remove rubberized coatings or tire rubber, though it is tricky. Some advice we see pretty often is to use a bigger media like 20/40 glass or 30/60 garnet, and to torch or scrape the surface first, if possible.
I get it I do you don’t want the dust but when it comes to a classic don’t dustless blast it use dry cause all that media that’s wet gets lodged in every hole behind every panel you can’t blow that out you can if you dry blast it
Old school sand blaster here. Question If you're using glass bead to blast I thought you could only run that with a 175 compressor. because ive used glass bead before hooked to my 900 (lol, didn't go well, even my 375 was too much) The one on the bed looks lie its a 600. Do you just down-regulate the air? with the water, that attach at the pot? Are you able to blast carbon steel with the water on? Gave up blasting long ago, gov would crawl up my ass on every job site and come to the shop. That and black beauty sucked Green Lighting was too $$$. Nothing cut like silica! However, glass is ~60% silica, how do you circumvent any issues? Due to the H2O providing dust abatement? Sorry for all the ?'s, just really interested!
Hi Jim! While you technically could, we suggest sticking with the ADCS-350 for your situation. It's better equipped to handle the humidity levels that you encounter as a mobile blaster.
Martin, we've been trying to reach out through email and over the phone for some time. Please check your email's spam folder or call us back (713) 930-9226. Thank you!
