Vapor Vapour Wet Agua Blasting....
sandblaster:
There are no chemicals, just air, water, and glass beads.
We could use chemicals but don't see a good reason for what we are doing.
So the only possible residue is the glass beads.
The beads we use are very fine so that is a issue when building a motor.
We rinse the parts in water, air dry with a compressor, and then flush with carb cleaner to be sure we got it all.
Welding parts that have been Vapor blasted is awesome.
Our welder Guru is VERY happy with how clean the parts are.
He has never complained about any residue but raves about how good our stuff welds.

I just reread all that this morning and STILL did not remember that part... :-D Speak away, I won't remember it anyway obviously! :lol:

My welder said that it was so clean it welded like butter.
It took very little time to heat the material even the thicker pieces.
I guess Vapor blasting was a good idea after all 8-)
