sandblasters?

[astross89]

Before we start I know all about harbor freight. Just my budget is super small. So that being said, is the a performance difference between these two? One work better on smaller compressors? They look to do the same thing just seal different and filling on one looks easier. Please help. Thanks

I use the second one, but it does take a good compressor to keep up. The blaster works great, but just make sure to filter your sand before putting it in the tank or youll spend lots of time taking it apart. The little hood that it comes with sucks, so just throw it in the trash and buy a decent hood from Ebay or somewhere. I cant comment on the first one, but the one I have works excellent with DRY FILTERED play sand.

Do you use it quite a bit? or occasionally? Good info to have, I need a cheap one.

Mine is only used occasionally. I really dont think any of the cheap blasters are made to be used everyday. The nozzles do wear out after a few hours but are cheap to replace.

Im not looking to be professional, just save some money over out blasting con-artist.... ;)
