AOA Asad, nice gun, looks familiar too .


The sand needs to be the finest. What you've picked up from seaview, strain it & you'll get better results.


With that compressor, you'll be able to sand blast denim, so you DO need a bigger one + a whole lot of protective clothing & prefrebly a helmet.


Mohsin's down with the damn dengue, so all lets just pray for his speedy recovery. May God give him health.

I took the sandblasting gun to Harry uncle and we proceeded to experiment with it. We found some fine ‘bajri’……the yellow river sand used for construction here in Karachi. Ive seen different kinds of sands being used in Peshawar and Islamabad so some folks here may not be familiar with what Im referring to.




Anyway. The results were as expected, our air compressor could not keep up with giving an adequate pressure. We tried the blasting on a rusted panel but there was hardly any change in its appearance.




So we do need a big compressor .




We were thinking on the lines of going to some service station and ‘borrowing’ the compressed air line to run our gun for testing. Of course we would need a very cooperative station attendant and would have to pay if we run it for more than a few minutes.




Next, I went to seaview to collect some sand from the shore . We shall try that and report back. Maybe the finer particles would gain more speed to get us some results??


Wish us luck!

Hey Asad, long time!


from what i get, you're trying to remove rust with sand blasting right? isn't it supposed to be soda blasting? well atleast as far as my knowledge goes......


you need at least a 125+ CFM compressor for it, not to mention a very fine nozzle to keep the flow rate consistent with small quantity.....


here's a good read that you may have already seen.

@Asad: I'm myself trying to figure out the process of soda blasting and intend to use it on my next project.

Hello All,


I own the Nissan Figaro pictured below with these 15inch alloys. I want to exchange these rims with 13inch size of the same design. The only reason to change the rims is that the resulting low tire profile makes the ride too hard for the suspension.


Please let me know if someone is interested.

Inshallah He will recover soon.

@Farrukh Ahmed,
It started off with sand & now has evolved into soda-blasting. Other types include, crushed glass and bead blasting.

In the US 'sand'-blasting is banned because it leads to Silicosis. Thus the term evolved into sodablasting and simple baking soda is used instead of sand.

The process is very simple, what is it that you want to know ? Send me an email.

Even other than that...modified beetles do not come under the classic heading im pretty sure...a vintage and classic car is one which maintains its authenticity with regards to how it looked when it first came out..with the engine..im sure if u play around with it (the original) so it runs well and doesnt cause day to day issues, then no it does not compromise its classical "integrity" so to speak...but then again..just my view u know...

i'll have to agree on this one, my 1303 is almost 100% stock except for the colour (which is kind of 70's) and the horrible toyota rims (soon to be replaced with the EMPIs i just got). until i feel that my car is not "stock" i do not intend on placing hte VCCCP sticker given to me by mohsin bhai on his last trip as it woudl tarnish the image of the VCCCP. however i should point out that 1303 (superbeetles) are neither vintage, nor classics so i'm still double minded if i should put the sticker on....

the current favorite is to use ground up walnut shells since they only remove the paint and do not leave pit marks in the metal. the process id 100% safe for the environment and fully biodegradable. only downside is that it is expensive and not everyone has the equipment (and knowledge) to do it.
