Hey guys,
Ive a quick one for you more experienced heads here. Im spending money on sandblasting at the moment and still have to get my frame done. I was gonna use nitromors but thats another issue. My question is would it be more economical to buy myself an air compressor and blast gun cutting out the middle man. Ive noticed my guy used very high power when blasting my casings leaving me in a rut whether to rough them up with sandpaper again or powder them.
Ive seen compressors out there ranging from 115 euro up to 400/500. What type of power should I be looking for? Ive no idea what would be best for blasting the likes of frames/casings etc. Thoughts? Also how easy is blast media to come across? Im thinking glass beads would give me that raw aluminium look but again im going into this blind as its my first project.
Thanks lads !
