Well, I need a blaster for very small jobs. I’m guessing this one needs very fine grit/sand and if so, it should work just fine for very small jobs.

@user-fk3fe6pq7p 11 месяцев назад

I am using exactly the same product and it works very well.

@jlplumley2 11 месяцев назад

That unit uses a fine grit.

@dirtriderrob8390 Год назад

I've purchased kiln dried sand fine grit it's same as silica sand for block paving

@jonduggan7433 2 месяца назад

I made my own with a $3.00 harbor freight air gun attachment and a Gatorade bottle. It works just as well or better than those cheap ones you can buy.

Good honest review mate,I built from scratch a sandblasting unit cupboard type thing took me ages,a silencer unit for me compresser,I was super chuffed,plugged this thing in to my comp,it wouldn't of taken the skin off a rice pudding,I was devastated to say the least, as you can imagine , realised my 24l comp isn't strong enough,probably need atleast double,but yor right ,that unit is still lol,thanks for the vid,spot on mate.

@TheYorkshireMix 2 года назад

Yeah its very disappointing isn't it. I ended up buying a blasting cabinet and that works so much better. ( after doing a few modifications that is). You definitely need a bigger compressor for blasting mate as it uses a lot of air. My 90l compressor is probably the smallest you could get away with but it is still running all the time that you are blasting. 👍

@misshoney5596 2 месяца назад

We can all see that gravity has the sand moving forward, preventing it from flowing through the gun. I'd recommend to either hold upright or add more sand. Also, sift out the sand and use a finer sand.

@xsharkzones2840 Год назад

I could spit sand harder than this junk. Brilliant review I’ve crossed this option off my list. Cheers bud!

@TheYorkshireMix Год назад

Yeah it definitely didn't work well for me. Not sure if I set it up wrong or not but I ended up getting a proper blasting cabinet and that works really well👍

@oscarmuffin4322 Год назад

@@TheYorkshireMix You need decently fine media and very dry air for it to work properly. Also worth checking the air passage behind the nozzle. I found that when they drilled the passage they left a flap of metal hanging over where the end of the drill had broken through Pushed that out of the way with a small screwdriver and it works much better, still only for small projects though. I've used mine with glass beads to clean motorcycle engines.

@TheYorkshireMix 3 года назад

This only came with 1 nozzle unfortunately. Im currently looking at sandblasting cabinets for the smaller parts of my project car but I might give this another go when I come to re furnish the wheels 👍

@angelanuccio2167 4 месяца назад

You should sift the sand before using it to get trash and rocks out of the sand you using and i would try finer sand than that .

@750triton 8 месяцев назад

Before you bin it, nip out and get some kiln dried sand. Blasting requires an enormous amount of air.

@ruinunes8251 3 года назад

A few years ago I saw a gun like yours and I thought the concept was clever. However, when I looked at the air consumption, which I can’t remember now how much it was, my little 25L air compressor would not cope with it because it would be running pretty much constantly. At the end I given up the idea. Apparently, to use sand blasting guns we should have at least a 100L air compressor, the bigger the better obviously. At the moment the 25L air compressor is the max I can have in my garage due to lack of space. So, no sand blasting for me 😂

@TheYorkshireMix 3 года назад

Yeah I must admit it was a little disappointing. I definitely need to do more research in to sand blasting as its a very useful tool to have when it works well 👍

@ruinunes8251 3 года назад

@drewrinker2071 10 месяцев назад

Try baking soda in it, there a guy on here that has same gun and it works really well for surface rust and paint. His aim wasn't to strip to bare metal, it was to get it ready to paint. And the soda did good job knocking all the loose crap off

@davidgun6826 8 месяцев назад

do not use soda blasting Medea around grass that you don't want killed. I did it took 3 years to recover.

@drewrinker2071 8 месяцев назад

@@davidgun6826 yeah I guess that actually makes sense because isn't baking soda actually a type of salt? I know any salt will kill grass, main ingredients in round up I think are salts

@elblitzb Месяц назад

Thanks for share mate. Thats a pice of junk!!! Are you sure it is not because the big grains of sand? Would it work better with thinner sand?

@rottiejakeluke Год назад

Sorry you had such a poor experience. Did you run it at 90 PSI? If you did not that would be a big factor for it not performing well. Also the media you purchased looked like rather tan fine grains of media. I have a similar gun and it runs like a dream, but I use mainly soda media on carburetors. It works great on furniture too and even takes paint and rust of metals. Try a finer media and be sure your compressor can keep up with the volume of air you’ll be using. Good luck.

@TheYorkshireMix Год назад

I tried all different ways to get it working with no luck so I put it in the bin and bought a blasting cabinet instead and that works perfectly 👍

@awalk5177 2 года назад

I think the grit was too big for that gun. There are many videos with the same gun, using soda which is much finer and getting good results.

@TheYorkshireMix 2 года назад

I think it could possibly work better with finer stuff but it just wasn't right for me. I've since bought a blasting cabinet and that's much better but it still needed some slight modifications 👍

@user-fq5ov7qs1c Месяц назад

There is a difference between 'cheap' and 'inexpensive'. I did not hear you mention the price. You should preview your videos and understand how to use and setup the equipment you are reviewing before you post anything. For example, what pressure did you set your compressor? Did you realize that you can adjust the media flow rate using the lever adjustment? I bought this sand blasting gun and it worked well to remove rust and to prepare a surface for painting or electroplating. The user manual says not to use this with 'sand'. You did not mention what kind of 'sand blasting media', the mesh or anything else about what you used. Just my two cents worth!

@johnchampion7819 Год назад

I think you're being too kind, the blaster is absolutely worthless. You get what you pay for. A good review, especially since you tried to improve it. Lesson for all to steer clear of such cheap tack. I wonder where it was made - as if I have to ask!

@TheYorkshireMix Год назад

Yeah it was definitely a waste of money unfortunately 👍

@a_traccion3675 11 месяцев назад

One very poor experience. You don't even show what compressor and psi you use. Including you ruin the gun instead of using finer sand or glass. Pretty bad review.
