Talking Sandblasting ,when I worked for RJ Southeys in SA The were painters ,laggers,sandbalsters .
We used to use the sandbalsters in the Empty Oil Refiner Tanks t clean them,hot and dangerous work,but got the job done clean as a whistle.
Good Money though for danger !
Bit would not do it again!

Up in the Northern Territory there is a bus company that uses old London Routemaster buses to take tourists around to see the sites.

We were up at the Rock when one puled in. The front was gleaming steel, they had been hit by a sand storm which had taken all the paint off the front of the bus.
Thankfully the bus was only half full and no one was hurt, but it did look a bit odd.

Hi Vernon.
Sand is a wonderful thing as long as you don't get it in the eye. Or sometimes other places.
