Window cleaner with soda blast pot
« on: September 12, 2009, 07:29:48 pm »
I recently read on here that one of the window cleaners has a Soda blast pot for sale. If it is you or if you know who has this equipment can you let me know.

I may be interested in purchasing the pot - providing it will remove what I need to remove.

many thanks

Are you looking for a wet soda blast pot that operates with a pressure washer and is mixed at the nozzle or a dry blaster?

This is my worry - I have seen on a website - white line removal being displayed but I am also thinking that it may not be aggressive enough.

i tried this at a factory we clean, soda crystals whernt aggressive enough so i tried wet sand blasting it this didnt revove it either i ended up using a floor scarifier hired from hire centre this did move the lines but scuffed the concrete slightly i had pre warned them that this would happen and they whernt bothered they just wanted lines removing, i think they burn the lines off when doing road works but not 100% sure.

Yes the lines are burnt off on the roads,  but if you do it inside it really does stink!!

This is for a contact at Heathrow airport, looking for an alternative to burning  and at the moment the only thing that is stacking up is Hydro blasting but it is very, very expensive!!

Hi Rob
soda blasting is widely used for paint removal,stone cleaning and beam restoration.
The media is very fine but is available in different grades. I am not 100% certain it would remove road markings but can try it out on an area of road markings outside our workshops.

See this link to a soda blasting unit
