So
I would like to strip body of car down... Have taken a prior car to the shop, to use walnut shells Would like to do this on my own I DO NOT have a large compressor...most I have is the portable 110volt that I can carry around to do home construction repairs etc a)Will "that size(sorry, don't know how many gallons off hand, bigger than a breadbox, I'd guess 5 gallons?) do the job..I appreciate that the smaller the compressor, the longer the job takes b)where would I buy the soda attachments...and what kind Duh...pretty vague/uneducated/uninformed question... Thx Paul |

I just posted my experience so far DIY media blasting my chassis on my build thread: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...t&p=2632003
This isn't soda blasting but even using a 5HP 60 gal. compressor that makes 14.6 scfm @ 40 psi is slow going and messy. Soda blasting wouldn't be as messy but I doubt it is any faster. You'll need a much bigger compressor for sure, but not cost effective if that's the only thing you need a large compressor for. |
