After receiving the metal detector, go back to previous planets and search for hidden Bolts. Not only does the metal detector help you find more, but the planets' items also respawn after you leave it.
Do the hoverboard races repeatedly. You can get 1000 to 2000 Bolts for each race.
Note: This trick requires a controller with an auto-fire feature. In Kerwen, there is a little tunnel by the Gadgetron Vendor that all the cars fly into. Each car is worth four whole Bolts. Fly down into the tunnel (there is a golden bolt here). Maneuver yourself in line with an oncoming set of cars, hold L1 and adjust your view. Then, set Square to auto-fire and keep it held. Allow the game to idle in this state for several hours and you will have enough to buy some golden weapons or perhaps a RYNO.
Go to any planet with a Monster Deployer. Then, get the Suck Cannon out and start sucking all of the monsters up. You can get a lot of Bolts this way. You go back into the planet to get more Bolts or if you accidentally destroyed the Deployer.
This trick requires the Taunter Gun, the ability to race a Hoverboard, the Bolt Magnet, and the Hologuise. Go to Blackwater City and enter the race with the Hologuise on, so you can walk the track without racing. Run down the track until you find the platform with a wall of boxes on it far above your head. Take out the Taunter Gun and walk just below the platform, out of sight. The "blobs" should be in front of you. Hold Circle and the gun should break the boxes that are out of sight and continue to drop Bolts. Keep the button pressed -- the boxes immediately respawn after they are out of sight. You can get an unlimited number of Bolts if you allow the game to idle in this state.
After picking up the Codebot in Drek's Fleet (Veldin Orbit), return tothe Robot Planet (Quartu). Use the Codebot to open the secret area by the robot arena, then transform into Giant Clank. Fight your way through a round in the robot arena. Then, instead of transforming back, walk off the edge of the walkway. When you regenerate as Giant Clank, you will be invulnerable. Walk back into the arena, and repeat as this as many times as desired.
On the Hoverboard race at the Gadgetron Site (Kalebo III), just after the big block of metal boxes before the big jump into a fork, jump to the left. You should land on a platform near the beginning. Jump over the water onto the platform. You must land on the platform or this trick will not. Make a sharp right turn into the water. You should end up at the end of the first turn, before the platform you jumped off. Repeat this for an unlimited score. You will get 1000 Bolts for every new record.
The best way to get tons of bolts is to go to planet Quartu, especially after you have already completed this level. Go to the machine that turns you into Giant Clank. When you are Giant Clank, go into the arena. You will end up fighting the mechs and the planes again, like in the mission. This can be easily done by standing at the entrance and continuously shooting your rockets at your enemies. After you have destroyed them all, walk to the back of the arena and even more Bolts will fly to you. After you have gotten everything, leave the arena and jump off the cliff. It will start the fight again and you will have all the Bolts you had before. You will receive about 1,500 to 2,000 Bolts per fight. Note: It is helpful if you have the Bolt Grabber.
To get more Bolts, hit the light poles. Only certain ones will give you extra Bolts.
