Title: Sand Blasting Post by: Victor on August 06, 2015, 10:25:10 am Does anybody know what the best thing to use on media or sand blasting an old caburator inside full of rust, like sand , walnut shells or other things. Thanks

I'd caution against media blasting since there are many little orifices that might get blocked in the process, the only thing I would consider is soda blasting it. Are you planning on using the carb?
Here's the carb cleaner I use, soak for 24+ hours: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/gunk-carburetor-parts-cleaner-complete-kit-cc3k/7040709-P?searchTerm=carburetor+cleaner Title: Re: Sand Blasting Post by: jholmgren on August 06, 2015, 01:11:09 pm I agree with Tom - if you are going to use it as a carb, try soaking/brushing it.
If you are shining it up for display, I would personally lean toward soda blasting as well - but check with whomever is doing your blasting. |
