I am looking to buy a soda blaster to blast my entire car. I don't want to spend a ton of money but I don't want a piece junk that doesn't work either. Eastwood has some units that are reasonably priced but they have gotten very mixed reviews on their site. It seems to be a love/hate thing. Either people really like it and say it works great while others say it is junk, don't buy it. I was looking at the dual tank model that can do soda as well as other types of media. I thought that might be the way to go as I would like to use soda on the body panels and then sand on the rusted areas to get as much of the rot off it as possible.

Anybody own or used an eastwood blaster? If so what has been your experience. Are there any other brand units out there that you would recommend.

I found this one in my searches. Price was right but not sure how well it would work.
