I think Simon and I now agree that the air driven nail
chisel hammer is not the correct tool for removing all the peeling paint and
loose rust down below. At a rough estimate there is about 1700 sq ft to tackle (Photo
1331) and the chisel method is too slow and too exhausting. The photo shows
only the rear 25% of the lower deck area!
So, we are looking
at DIY blasting and we have come across a ‘28 Gallon Abrasive Sand Blaster with
Built in Vacuum’ (Photo 1332).
The blurb
states that it not only blasts, but it vacuums up the debris and even sorts the
crud from the abrasive material. It
sounds good, but I wonder. If any of my
readers have any experience of such machines, or can advise on other perhaps
more suitable models, please get in touch.
