interesting tool for rust removal

[cuznjohn]

Now you can easily remove rust from metals using a laser. This method leaves a clean and weldable or paint able surface.

Looks cool, sounds like Flash Gordon. But where does the rust go? I saw nothing comming off the precesss. I doubt it's converting the rust to iron and O2 gas (maybe it is though).If not, there would have to be a very good extraction system.

They actually already use lasers for that as well as other skin treatments

[Bob Denman]

I know... :D

But this one looks to be MUCH more powerful! :shocked:

It appears that there is no danger of damaging the piece that you are removing the rust from, as is possible with sandblasting.

:shocked: For that kind of cash: steel wool is looking pretty useful again! :yikes:

[cuznjohn]

steel wool and a can of coke works great

Hi Bob,

Re: That thing looks as if it might work pretty well for tattoo removals also...

The fastest tattoo removal system is asphalt.

[Bob Denman]

that's true... :thumbup:


...But then you need to deal with the scar removal process too! :yikes:

[Chupaca]

But I will have to stick with my sand blaster. Have too many tools as it is but that would be nice. it is really fast...:thumbup:

But I will have to stick with my sand blaster..... snip .....it is really fast...:thumbup:


:yikes::yikes: I hope you're talkin' bout the rust removal of the thread subject, & not the tattoo removal of the posts immediately prior/above your post!! :yikes::yikes:

The mind boggles at the thought of sand-blasting tattoo's to get 'em off, altho I guess it's probly no worse than purposefully choosing the asphalt method!! :shocked:

My daughter is a tattoo artist and says now the way is laser...she recommends it to many clients that want her work and a cover up won't work. ..I have removed a layer or two of skin with the sand blaster (by mistake ) and don't wish it on anyone...

There is a liquid product called Wink that is good for surface rust

Agree, but that is a hefty chunk of iron. I do like how it got to the nooks & hard to reach areas with ease. Could be really handy on my great granddads antiques tools


I wasn't there but I still care! POW /MIA VETS

[SPECTACUALR SPIDERMAN]

something like that would be great for my business if it was affordable (under 10k)

[jaherbst]

Good ol Naval Jelly works also.
