advice about sandblasting cabinets

Post by firstlude » Mon Jun 15, 2015 9:20 pm

has anyone got any experience of such things as i am thinking of getting one as i plan to clean up and paint a few things on the lude as it seems i have to take most of it off to replace one thing or another so i thought why not blast and paint a few bits make it look a bit better :) not looking to go full scale industrial one just a hobby one

I have one I paid about £60 for. It seems to do the job required ok (I've not used it much yet). You'll need at a minimum a 3hp compressor. I'll put some pics up later when I'm not at work.
