Gee, I have all this equipment and I can't figure out how to use it . I bought one of the HF $80 (on sale - like everything is) pressurized sand blaster. Bought some high tech "star" blasting media "

I have the same rig, and it's worked well for me. It sounds like you've opened the media valve 100% (the one at the bottom of the tank). Try closing it about halfway, then open or close it until you

My compressor is the 6hp oilless "Professional" Craftsman, with about a 30 gallon tank. You think I don't have enough compressor? There is nothing between the compressor except a 3/8"x50' hose and Mi

OK, that's what someone else suggested, and that makes sense. For some reason I thought of that valve as a on/off thing, rather than a variable orifice. I'll try that next trip out to the shop. Thank

Sounds like you are running too 'rich'. Adjust it so you get more air and less abrasive. John

That is probably not really enough compressor. I have a similar Craftsman setup. Using fine sand and a fine nozzle, it works if I wait pretty often for the compressor to catch up. If you watch the pr

Sears, way OVER rates their compressor HP. I don't know how they get away with it but if you look at the power draw there is no way you can get 6hp out of that amperage draw. I was once told it has

I gotta go with the "not enough air" theory. When I use my Harbor Freight sand blaster I use two air compressors, both 5 hp. It'll work with one but two is more than twice as good. (2+2 = 5) Larry Ho
