Latest piece of shop equipment arrived on Thursday. Haven been smitten by the beautiful results of vapor blasting, we took the plunge and ordered a system in November. A 6 week build wait and our unit shipped late January. Got the machine to our shop And did the setup and test today. Results are amazing. Will be posting more before and after shots.


Lots of cool plumbing.

He're Paul on the maiden voyage of the VHT VH800P FL Closed Loop vapor blaster, it does produce some impressive results. The machine was made in Lincolnton, NC and was in transit for about a week during its 2,900 mile trek to Blaine, WA.. It must have encountered some cold temperatures along the way because it arrived with freeze damage. It is tested at the factory and wasn't fully drained prior to shipping so the hose nozzle split and one of the pressure T-fittings also cracked and spewed water on startup.
