That's very resourceful there Scott. What mill plastic is that. What type blaster do you use with it?

Hey Lamar, the plastic is only 3 mil painters plastic sheet from lowes. So far it has held up well and I made it easy to replace in case it didn't. Been using it for about a month now with no issues. I have two blasters, I bought a cheep gravity fed blaster for sand and agressive media and I have an Eastwood pressure blaster for soda and less agressive media. I did a few potmetal dash pieces with the soda and the results were impressive, the soda did not touch the details of the metal. The cost of the booth was about $70.00, being able to blast without the mess Priceless !

Just to up date this for any one who builds a cabnet like this, I found that the baking soda dusts alot. I put a furnace filter on one end of the cabnet and a three speed box fan on the other end with a filter over the motor. This works great. I can blast for hours. Scott

The last of the special built pedal cars will be going up for sale at the RM Auctions in Scottsdale in January. Built by the renown restorer Fran Roxas, this "Dusey" is truly is another work of art.
