Re: Media blasting questions
I purchased one of Harbor freight 110lb pressurized abbrasive blasters they sell, and also one from Tractor Supply they are identical and the same company who makes them,
That being said i went on youtube and found modifications to make them work better (WAY BETTER) in fact! I use Black diamond "fine" Media and have an IR 80 gal 7.5 HP 2-stage compressor and then have it piggy backed to a Sears 40Gal 5.HP single stage compressor. with this set up i can run the Black diamond media for about 20-min or longer and i did all of my 58 Cameo Bed, Cab, Front fenders, this system i have has worked out great, and as Crazy as this sounds, I enjoy media blasting Lol..
havent had any warpage at all, and i would say yes,keep the nozzle moving and at an angle,i think a key factor also is the metal is a heavier Gage steel on these year trucks!
it would probably do some Damage to my Wifes KIA, Lol....
