[Ross Wooldridge]

Might be a nice Xmas present to myself. Anyone have any experience with these things?

Sorry, I don´t have experience, but that would work in reality. Laser is used to remove tattoos from inside skin, so it could be able to remove rust from surface as well.

Seems amazingly cheap. According to a YouTube video from 2017 (Wonder World), the 20 watt unit was 80,000.00 and a 1000 watt unit was 500,000.00.
Keep us informed how it goes if you get one.

 

[Ross Wooldridge]

I agree - yet I keep seeing them pop up.

Seems too good to be true.

That website link above says $39.99, marked down from $299. Scam.

Seems this is a real product that is in the $50k range, but that site selling it you linked is a scam.

I'm sure it'll be like the Wonder World guy commented - initial PC CD writers were 50,000, several years later under 1000.

This technology will be a good tool once a quality long lasting unit at an affordable price becomes available. Possibly a potential business opportunity, mobile laser paint removal - like mobile sand blasting today.

Having worked with lasers, that should definitely work. However, as others have said, it's probably a scam if it's that cheap. I'd just stick with a wire wheel and sand paper for a while.

It sounds like a robot master race declaring war on humans.

Here is the company's home site
P-laser Industrial laser cleaning
The link Ross posted is probably to good to be true

 

[Ross Wooldridge]

I'm tending to agree...

Purely anecdotal, and focusing more on the website than the science...

A few months ago, one of my kids was on Facebook and knew I was looking for a gaming computer for my youngest. She saw an ad, clicked on it, found a site with several models of high end gaming laptops, and in an effort to surprise her brother (and lighten my load) she ordered one for $179. Keep in mind, this is normally a $1,600 laptop, but was being sold as "refurbished - like new/mint condition."

When the T-shirt arrived from China 3 weeks later, it didn't even fit her.

A lot of Chinese companies are selling cheap items (clothing, fake jewelry, etc) via fake fronts. So you order a Laser Rust Removal System, they send you a tracking number a few days later, then packages "get delayed" and when it finally arrives, it's an item that the company ACTUALLY sells, but you've missed your window on a chargeback and now have a $180 V Neck T-Shirt.

Just so everyone is crystal clear, this is a scam.
Don't feed the scammers.
