I've also bought a marked down sand blaster to use with a Kew pressure
washer.  Does anyone know what type of sand these things use - presumably it
has to be dry sand for it to free flow up the pipe?

        I was in Wall Mart the today and saw a Pressure Washer attachment
for
        Sand Blasting. It has a suction type pick up for the sand and uses
the
        high pressure water as propulsion for the blast media.  In spite of 
        Andy's remarks I bought it, specifically because it was marked down
from
        $29.95 to $ 5.95.  I don't think I have a use for it but I'll bet I
can
        find one. It is a neat thing to have; I think!  
        I have a 2500psi washer.  I think it will do a real job on some very
old
        and rusted lawn furniture that my Wife has been bugging me to paint.
I
        know I will have to dry it quickly to prevent flash rust.
        Who cares, I got a new tool!  Anybody ever used one??
