I have used this to sand blast a smoke damaged property after a fire, I was using a 3 hp 200ltr compressor to run it I found if I sieve the sand as I fill the tank to take the larger bits out there is no problems of it blocking up Just remember to open the air valve to the out let hose before you open the bottom sand outlet or the pipe fills up to much and you will blow loads of sand out , I found that you do not have to open the bottom valve fully maybe a quarter is enough depends what you doing I cleaned the full brickwork on the rear of a house in a couple of hours Cleans rusty parts in seconds Very impress ,I got loads of things I can clean up with this Should have bought one years ago If you only doing small parts like brake calliper or break discs etc you could use a smaller compressor Read full review

Since we are on the budget decided to go for this one as it seams it is virtually identical to CLARKE sandblaster. Delivery was quick and problem free. Sandblaster comes partly assembled (thats good). Bad thing is that part of it is poorly made. The joint between the air regulator and top of the blaster itself could be machined better - our was of unsatisfactory quality. Threaded part where the silver coupling screws into required LOT of tape to seal the joint properly - but still after a while pressure blowed the tape out and allowed air to escape. Tape was blowed out as soon as pressure reached 7.5 bar. Now in order to use blaster we have to use it as soon as its ends up filling up with air, 10 min later (so the compressor have some rest) pressure drops to 6 bar which is useless. So I guess its bit of luck with this one - your may get one that works great, you may get one that keeps leaking. One thing to mention - if you want to apply fresh tape on the top joint - you have to disassemble both handles and wheels - really annoying fact if you have to re-apply tape 4 times during and hour of operation.Read full review

Bought this to clean up some steel wheels on my trailer as was quoted 3 time the price of this to do em. And have a few other jobs for it. Didnt expect wonders for the price. I have only had a quick go but. Ripped off paint easily. Also looking at doing some timber cladding for a textured look again on trying worked extremely well. (only used kiln dried sand as yet) For the money perfect for what i want. Dont think be any good for daily use but not what its aimed at. Get one great kit. Andy.

altogether a great product, especially for the price. I have one slight issue that is the clips on the sand hose don't grip it well enough, but that is the only thing. I am very pleased with it.

Poorly made due to air fitting threads. I had to replace several thread adapters for higher quality ones. However, the cost of this product was good and in the end I now have a functioning blasting tank.

Please be careful if you buy this product. Day 1 a hole appeared in the hose sending 10kg if blast through my shop. Day 2 a hole appeared in the brass fitting which acts as the gun. Difficult to regulate to <100psi and therefore very dangerous.

Was a bit cautious about this blast pot looking at the price and the nearest one at machinemart was £100 more expensive first thing out the box was in a few bits but most of the connections where already done so only a few parts needed putting together the pot is very good value and works brilliantly what more could you want for the price range I have been using it to blast small motorbike parts with a 14 cfm compressor which works great
