Sand Blaster = Cheap Compressor to run it = $$$$$ The wheels look awesome.

leonk Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Very jealous of your setup, oh the fun I could have with a sandblaster. Ha Ha RT, Jag ownership and the battle against rust seem to go hand in hand. Very interested in this Keyser. Every part I strip off the Jag is going to need refurbing. Starting to realise what a big project I've taken on. Found a company that will chemically strip and coat the body shell, but it's all the small bits that need blasting and etch priming straight away. what CFM is your compressor? Keep up the good work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep up the good work Hi mate missed the question Spec on myine is - 14cfm displacment - cast iron, twin cylinder compressor pump 200 litre air receiver (CE certified) 3hp motor, 230v, 1ph continuously rated with overload protection 10bar (150psi) maximum working pressure controlled by a fully automatic pressure switch. Specification also includes safety valve, pressure gauge, air outlet valve & drain tap. Application - professional automotive/industrial It was the biggest I could get without needing 3 phase power - its on it's own 30AMP supply - only just up to the sand blaster but great for spraying and all the other stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 Sorry for the delay folks, been a busy boy of late lots of stuff happening but an update at last Some new bits arrived Then I started sorting out the best of the parts so I can prep them for paint I did sand blast the sub frames They are in good nick so just did the loose paint and rust Then I stripped the other rear hub Then onto the front hubs - never been apart from new is my guess Calliper Rusty but the pistons are free and the bleed nipple came free Really Got em out though The I came across the drive shaft nut and this was a tough little nut to crack!!! 600mm Breaker bar It just laughed at me as I hung from it! So I went to get my destroyer the 1m breaker bar - but I lent it to my mate I swear I heard the nut laugh again - so to copy Mr Marcel Wallace I called some hard hitting home boys to get medieval on its arse with a blow torch Not F******g laughing now are ya!!! One for Buster you can undo a rusty bolt without snapping it the other calliper more bits Stay tuned for the next exciting episode ......................

Keyser Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 WARNING!!! THE FOLLOWING POST CONTAINS PICTURES OF MY WIFE GETTING DOWN AND DIRTY!!!! Well don't say I didn't I warned you!!!! Back on the Mini again today We started by stripping the front hubs Got the big guns out on the stubborn bolt 1" Drive socket set!! MUHAAAAAAA Then stripped some more bits for cleaning The wife getting her hands dirty Now she is just getting dirty yes that's Mrs Keyser in the sand blasting chamber As the bits go through they come out clean Pile of bits waiting to go through The done bits pile grows The bottom arm was cleaned with a wire wheel the top with a sand blaster Before and after shots All done by 7:30pm Also got the wheel back from repair - it is one of the 12" set I got cheap after blasting I noticed a small dent in one, minor and not actually causing a problem but a mate was taking his Supra wheel in for repair so we thought we could get a deal on two being done and we did Round wheels again Paint this week then Stay tuned for the next exciting episode ......................
