Thank you everyone for your responses.  The siphon guns have a distinct 
advantage because it seems the "stop" is simply to block the airflow, rather 
than the other mechanism for a pressure pot blaster that tries to block the 
media itself.  Not a long-lasting design from what I've read.


Has anybody converted a pot blaster to a siphon gun?


Terry
