Looks like T&M to me. If they want a hard price...I think $100k ought to cover it.

Re: I Have To Come Up With A $$ For Blasting This.
Kill do a test blast and see how long it takes to do a few sq. ft. and how much media you use. then you should have a good idea of what it will take and what you need to charge for it.

Re: I Have To Come Up With A $$ For Blasting This.
I agree with Bulldog. Do a test and base your time and materials from that. Is this for the military or the private sector. If it is military do they require specs on the profile. If so check with your media distributor. They will help you match the grit to the profile in mills.

Re: I Have To Come Up With A $$ For Blasting This.
Hey guys just a little IMPORTANT info here watch blasting anything like a tank that is camo, olive drab, desert tan, flat black, or green. It this was a mil service vehicle it may have been painted with CARC paint, which is bad news...... Be careful........

Re: I Have To Come Up With A $$ For Blasting This.Quote:
The sand and material should be considered HAZMAT after blasting. Make sure you have a fresh air system and wear a mask its not your friend by any means. Personal health. The most common health hazards involved with overexposure to CARC paint are irritation of the respiratory tract, nervous system depression, headache, dizziness, unconsciousness, coma, and allergic sensitivity. Chronic exposure may result in asthma-like respiratory disease and symptoms of overexposure are often delayed. Personnel known to be allergic or sensitive to isocyanates should not paint with polyurethane’s. (May cause seizures as well) Medical surveillance. Anyone using polyurethanes more than 30 working days per year should be provided preplacement (before the job) medical surveillance. This surveillance should include: occupational and medical histories with exposure to isocyanates, or organic solvents, and lead; a history of allergies; skin, blood, heart, urinary, and respiratory monitoring; a physical exam and chest X-ray; complete urinalysis; a blood-lead determination; a blood test of liver function; EKG (for personnel over 40); and proof of the ability to safely wear a respirator. Ongoing medical screening for current workers should be in accordance with regulatory requirements. Need anymore info I will do my best to help you!

Re: I Have To Come Up With A $$ For Blasting This.
Wayne County Sheriffs Dept. and the Richmond Police Department in Indiana both have one. They were military surplus given to both agencies. What there plans are, I dont know.... I am sure they will be in every parade and SWAT will use it in armed stand off situations Im sure.
