Ugh....WHY!?!?!

Think this would work on sintra "crumbs"? When we get projects back from our CNC guy, even though they blow them off, there are still lots of little sintra crumbs all over the place. impossible to get out of carpet lol

Old thread, I know, but the static guns work incredible on that stuff. We just heat bent thousands of small custom cut CNC signs and they arrived with piles of the cutting swarf and chips all over the parts. Several zaps with the static gun and they're basically clean.

Is that like the ionized air guns? Or are you dragging your feet around on carpet going pew pew?

Beats dragging your knuckles on the ground like y'all do it in Arkansas

 

[johnnysigns]

Yeap, Ionized air gun. They work great and we're just running a unit from amazon that's a chinese knockoff.

 

[Notarealsignguy]

Well hell yeah it does. Ever try to shock a rattlesnake while riding your bronco drinkin' moonshine? Harder than hell.

Did you ever fix the flat tire on your house?

 

[Notarealsignguy]

If by what you mean is did I slash the other 7 tires, then yes.

Hope you set the blocks up first

Hey Nota, he has heard all the redneck jokes. I know there is supply line trouble, but you need to order new material.

Sorry, I only have a few jokes, I'm reaching the end of the line here

what a waste of time and energy to cut those with a cnc. and material if it was a custom shape then you need to cnc

That's just the protective plastic sheet the gets shredded, the cut on the actual material looks just fine. Peel off the plastic, dust them off with a soft foxtail brush. Don't wipe them with anything except maybe a tack cloth but that's not necessary. Then use them.

dust them off with a soft foxtail brush

or a coon tail if you're from Arkansas.
Is that any better Johnny or am I just all washed up?

I have a horsehair brush and would not damage it with this sort of thing. I have an large old house paint brush that can take a beating And is stiffer. Coon tail terks to much.

Probably looks more a muff hair brush by now, like our 15 year old shop broom that's about wore down to the plastic.

Only if it's still attached to the coon.

that's why Burton has to wait til after lunch to use it

The static is the problem. You can get an ioniser gun that'll remove it, but yeah.. A Pita..

A tack cloth will remove them pretty easily though.. Just do it before removing the film, otherwise the static will just cover it in bits again
