I used to pull my hair out trying to get paint to stay on tiny photo etched parts. I bought the Badger mini sandblaster and the results are awesome.

I just bought the HF version of this, as I'm getting ready to repaint an HO bras caboose. I have already stripped the paint, and am doing a repair. I have read about giving the brass some tooth for the primer. But some articles mention using an air eraser with baking soda. After reading G.W. Smith's warning below, I may just go with the baking soda. Thanks for the review.

Just stumbled across this video, thanx for posting. A question: Im in the process of "weathering" my RC tank. Im looking to add a fine dust effect using pigments. Brushing pigments is ok, but for a more realistic look I want to "blow" the pigment on. Have you ever tried to do that using this air eraser? Loading pigment into a straw is a thought, but........na, I'll pass.

I'm learning......great vid. Any suggestions to sand-blast small rust spots on a car that's down to metal. The rust spots are about the size of an air-gun BB? Will this gun shoot that small of a pattern? These paint-chips rusted on a vintage car, so I'm going to try to air-brush after that and need a good set-up also. What media would you suggest + grit-size??????

I have a serious question it maybe a little stupid but I must ask - could this be used on plastic to strip paint off a model if you lowered the pressure ???? Also if you are not sure could you please try it on a paint mule and post the results this would be most appreciated! I have on several occasions as I am sure everyone has messed up at some stage in assembly/paint on my models to the point that I can bring myself to finish it do to the mistake/s I've made. If this could work on plastic it would save several models in my shelf of doom. I have tried stripping paint before with various degrees of success but some models just do not work well under this method for various reasons main one being little paint traces remain in the recesses,corners and other hard to reach areas. Then if repainted the traces remaining show thru the new paint job resulting in even worse appearance then before it was stripped. Also can other materials be used in place of the Aluminum Oxide? As in something less damaging to materials like plastic,rubber,vinyl etc or is just really only usable on metal? Thanks for sharing this ,look forward to reading your response to my questions as this could be one of my next purchases if it will work on plastic without destroying it.

Would you say you could remove paint from models, as that's one of the applications it claims it's useful for, I'm not sure would it not damage the plastic beneath? In any case I found the video interesting and useful, Many thanks.

I know you don't seem to like when I suggest alternatives to what you've discovered (god hand nippers/acrylic powder filler) but this one I reckon you'll love.. A crazy Japanese company that makes really niche stuff, 'Sujibori-do' have a micro blasting system, of which I thought was especially cool is their mini blast cabinet (sujibori-do.ocnk.net/product-list/87). Looks cool if you're going to be doing a lot of media blasting in future! Cheers again and I'm loving the vids, keep em coming! Paul

Check that “aluminum oxide”, I bought 25lbs from harbor freight and had purchased this air eraser but not used it yet. Both “aluminum oxides” are not aluminum. There are a mix of aluminum and iron oxides. The iron oxide ruined a piece of brass I’d spent 4 days prepping and casting and harbor freight won’t give you your money back because you opened the box or bottle. Bunch of cheaters and thieves. Its weighty because it’s iron. Get a magnet and check, if it’s the same as the hf is there cheating you. DO NOT USE IT ON BRASS!!!
