Im not sure if this is in the right section so if a mod needs to move it then I apologise.
I am about to take on a job restoring a barge and the customers wants it shot blasting. He has asked me if I have ever used zinc shot as it is supposed to protect the steel from rusting as it is blasted!! Ive only used sand or steel shot and after doing a brief google search I have only found a vague site which briefly mentions zinc shot.
Has anyone ever used it and if so where can I get it from and finally, does it really protect the blasted surface as I wont be able to finish the job in one hit?
Thanks
