At Pro Shop we mainly build custom cars however in this video we build our very own ice bath out of a chest freezer. With a thermometer to control the temperature, a pump to circulate the water and ozone generator to help keep the water clean it has all the features of an expensive ice bath however we managed to do all this for under $1000.
As always thanks to my beautiful partner Anika for the video edit.

We have a lot in common . I lived in Australia for a while , I paint cars for a living, Sprayed lots of Raptor , Been taking cold showers for a couple of years .The only difference is my wife fights me on everything , except the divorce . The best part was watching you both work together , and the dog.

Ps in my research I did see that your inkbird thermometer is not the one made for aquariums/under water all the time- with rubber seal. Apparently it will degrade/rust over time. They are same price. Just another content creator sponsored by them mentioned it with his ice bath ❤ Also had a question about your waterproofing- is it non toxic? Will chemicals leach into water? I'm deciding on my waterproof sealer now and too many options/different advice out there. Alot reccomend pond sheild (epoxy 2 step) or rubber pond sealer.

Question....where did you buy the pump kit from? As well, I'm assuming you plug in the freezer and keep it running to cool the water when you're not using it? The reason I'm asking is I've seen videos that use a fridge but just for holding the water. They don't plug it in...and do you add ice to it or was that ice formed from just plugging it in? Awesome video btw, best I've seen yet!!!

did you put any primer inside the freezer beefore shooting it wit raptor ??

@ProShop1 7 ай бұрын

No. Not sure if it would have made a difference. A lot of people have had problems with all types of liners sticking to the inner surface.

Is the caulk working well for sealing the seems? Caulk usually remains rubbery while I believe the Razor Coating is pretty hard. Are they staying stuck together and sealed?

The Raptor lining is starting to lift away from the inside. We are going to do an update video soon to cover this problem

@@ProShop1 with your talent I’m sure you sanded it properly. Maybe it’s the aluminum and some sort of electronic corrosion? I’m guessing Pond Shield is back on top as the best liner?

@@kennruckey I’m pretty sure the condensation from the freezing builds up between the layers causing it to lift. Someone in the comments said it happened with their pondliner too.

Do you also run a filter? What type do you use .

At the moment I have added an irrigation inline filter. Does the job of keeping Barneys hair out of the pump.

Do you recommend only using the raptor as painting ?

@ProShop1 10 ай бұрын

Actually after 6 months of use the liner is starting to flake off. A lot of other people are saying most lining products aren't handling the condensation. We are about to redo ours and try something different.
