I am looking for sandblasting equipment to do small parts and spot repair.
Can any of you provide references for equipment you have seen or used? What type system works better than others? What medium works best for removing rust and paint without destroying surface? GCW |

I'll second the bit about the engine compartment, not something I wish to repeat in the near future. In fact, I wouldn't suggest sandblasting anything on the car itself unless the car is largely disassembled.
Oh, a few tips: A full head shield is highly suggested, if not, then by all means wear ear plugs, a quality mask or respirator, and two layers of eye protection. Yes, it is that messy. It was the nastiest thing I have done on a car by a long shot, I felt violated. |
