Default Laser Cleaner On Frame

Has anyone tried laser cleaning on an assembled frame? No sand or chemicals.

Some information from the H.A.M.B here : https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...-this.1130737/

The problem there was the cost (I think in the $50,000 range). If this is for real, it sure looks promising.

Curious about the $50K? The machine listed on the link is under $300. It seems fishy though. Look that the site: It sells fashion hats, kitchen items and pet toys.
Also, read the reviews of the laser cleaner. They seem to be translated from not the native language listed.

There's a dropdown for either 100W or 1000W the 100W is $88 the 1000W is $238. I never even heard of this tool before now. It looks very effective in the video.

The full video on youtube describes mega buck costs so I would take the viewpoint (with regards to the cheap units) that if it is too good to be true, it probably isn't true.

Buyer beware.

It would be interesting to see what one would cost if listed by a trusted retail outlet.

Mart.

It's a scam site. These machines are expensive.
