I will make house calls but unless the job is big enough im not sure I could make the trip all the way to LA. Fuel cost these days would kill me on a trip like that. LOL

I have not figured on what my hour rate will be yet but Most charge around $200 per hour + media cost. That ends up from $800 to $1200 for most cars. I forgot to add that Im just north of Tallahassee, FL by 50 miles.

My neighbors would love this! Just blasting away in the driveway!

Maybe you should move it to the back yard. LOL

Boy this thing is awesome. After getting it set it strips pain and even somewhat thick bondo with ease. I was thinking bondo was hard to remove with this machine but man it just blows it away. The top nova fender thats mounted on the car is all bondo. It would just eat away at it like it was almost nothing. To bad that fender has major rust out on the top because the rest of the fender it perfect. Anyhow here are a few before and after pictures. Look how it makes that old dirt muncie look like new again.

thats nice it does a good job, just wondering how much did that set up cost ya?
i do alot of work on my personal cars, and occationally on friends, and it looks like it would be a useful tool to have around

A setup like mine would cost you around $20K +. I got a new compressor with trailer damage for a huge discount which helped out big time.
