I did a search but couldn't find anything, though I know someone here mentioned resealing the Harbor Freight blast cabinet.
I bought one last night and am in the process of putting it together. I have read the sealing they do at the factory is crap and I figure I'll just change the seals while its apart. What type of seals would be best? A better foam seal? Liquid seals? I have been using a free air blaster a little bit which has worked great and is a ton of fun, however very messy so I'm really looking forward to a contained unit. Any other advice before its all put together would be great. BTW, anyone interested, the unit I bought (This one) is on sale for $219 in store, couple that with one of the 20% off coupons in a car mag and you get out the door for a little over $190...not too shabby |

Let's have a little glass bead tutoring session. Glass bead dust is mucho bad to inhale. Glass bead on the floor of your work area can get into EVERYTHING. Glass bead inside your engine is FATAL to that engine. Not only do you need to be extremely careful when you glass bead blast engine parts, you have to use the same level of care when working on your engine or gearbox anywhere near where the glass bead blasting cabinet is located. Like in the same room. Allowing the residue to accumulate on your floor (and everywhere else in the area, 'cause that's what it does, is not good, and sweeping it up with a broom or vacuum cleaner is just another way to propel it right into your work. BE CAREFUL!!!!!! Oh, and be sure you have a GOOD drier on your air supply.
