Sand Blaster Gun Kit – Portable Sandblaster for Air Compressor – Rust Removal & Glass Etching – Gravity Feed & Siphon Modes – AS118-2C

I needed a soda blaster for small jobs/projects. There are several ways to go for this but I am glad I tried this one. The product does very well with running soda and has a built in trigger with a container for the material being sprayed. It runs well with my compressor at their suggested PSI setting. A giant plus for them is their customer support. I had some questions before purchase and they answered within one business day or less which is remarkable these days. Not just for items made overseas but anywhere. Just don't be fooled into thinking you are going to use this to blast a truck frame or any big jobs. It does a good job on small jobs and that is what it is for.

super easy to use, compact but works excellent

Works good, easy to use

This little guy is mighty! It works great. I used the attached siphon, which is the way to go for larger projects. I used Sakrete multi-purpose sand from Lowes, which is graded, washed, dried, and sanitized. 50 # bag was $6.38. It lasted 1 hour and 20 minutes of use and easily striped layers of paint off a metal structure. The paint job looked flawless because of how well the sandblast device did. Word of the wise: Make sure you have a full-face mask or a sandblasting hood cover. They are not expensive, and you can grab them right here on Amazon.

This 'sand blaster' did not perform nearly as well as I had hoped, and I didn't have high expectations. It does work, shoots the media, filtered play sand in this example, but lacks the power to cut through much paint or rust. It's not total junk. It's just weak. The plastic handle and frame feels like a toy. But it will shoot some media and might gradually remove a bit of material if you are persistent and patient.

Wanted to clean rust and original paint off the back of a piece of my 56 Panel truck where I couldn't get stripping pad. Panel was too large to fit in my table top blast cabinet. First this thing is almost all plastic, came with only one nozzle, not two, no other accessories. Came with a card saying if I went to the manufacturers website I would receive a free inline filter tho. when I did that it said filter was no longer available even tho they would sell me one! Extra nozzles were 14.00! Bought crushed glass blast media which is excellent for paint removal and available in small amount at my local big box discount tool store to test blaster, filled hopper 3/4 full. cranked up pressure on my large stationary compressor to 150#. First when I opened the hopper feed, media started freely pouring out nozzle. But when I pulled the trigger so little media came out I couldn't even see the stream. I started on an area of old primer only. I blasted the area for > 10 minutes to remove an area about the size of a nickle down to metal. At that rate it would take MONTHS to blast the whole panel! Checking the hopper it was near empty! The small cheap blasting gun in my table top blast cabinet does a far better and faster job. Conclusion: This is an expensive toy not a real tool that wastes pricey media without doing any real work. Don't waste your money. It's being returned immediately.

A great little device...and it works.

This is a great, affordable and well-designed product for small projects, like the refreshing of my bench vise. I've owned other sandblasters in the past, so I knew that the "suction" aspect of this unit would, at best, work marginally. Not a fault of this unit, it's just that blaster suction hoses immediately create an air cavity and a void and don't work well. If you have a big project, get a pressurized sandblaster that feeds from the bottom. So, knowing that, I used a coal-slag medium to do my blasting, reloading the reservior about five times to finish the vise. Keep the gun level (move the piece so you can do that) and you'll be fine. Also...for a good job: Heed the PSI specs. My two-tank Ingersoll-Rand has trouble maintaining 90 PSI, but it got the job done. Also, don't even think about using this or any media blaster without a moisture remover installed in the line. I installed mine at the compressor, so all the air in the hose was dry. If you don't do this, your media will likely clog at the nozzle. High ratings for this one. Now go have fun in the garage!

I am by no means a professional sandblaster however for small jobs on automotive work this is a great little unit. I've used it several times and had great success with it. Would highly recommend

Parfait, fait très bien son travail

Really not suitable for removing paint from wheels. I tried to strip one mini light wheel and went through 13 kgs of media with very little effect. Not recommended for anything other than small projects.

Excelente para aplicaciones pequeñas, no es muy útil para piezas grandes, el sifón no es muy funcional.

tres bonne sableuse.
