Good info. I already have the blaster cabinet and just need a smaller nozzle for the soda. Another trick on the air compressor is to find a dead compressor with a good tank(usually free or close) and link the 2 tanks together. It takes longer for the pump to fill them, but you get more continuous run time.

Just what I was looking for! Great advice, thanks!

Thanks for sharing that info! I've been using glass beads but have wondered about using soda in my cabinet.

Great video, appreciating your sharing the knowledge.

Thank you! This is great info. I’ve been trying to find what size compressor to use.

Thanks for sharing your info. I just bought a used ACE soda blast cabinet and and filter unit and learning the ins and outs. Now I'll go check your website.

You cut to the chase! no circumventing explanation. The first guy that I can say that is worth listening ! Congrats from Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.

Just some thoughts.... Try a cyclonic filter. They don't block up, nearly as bad, nor as quickly....and... I have used glass bead on soft alloys, and it's extremely gentle. Just be careful to not spill it on the floor. It acts like a trillion microscopic ball bearings. Even with a good vacuum, you'll still be sliding everywhere for a week. Great video. Thanks.

Great video thanks

Great Video, i dont know why you have been left 7 dislikes, i thought your video was informative, straightforward and educational, if there was one criticism it would be how you mis pronounced aluminium! ;-) Just Joking, i know our American cousins say it differently to us Brits, Great video, keep them coming.

thanks for info. i might make a video if i buy one and like it

I'm thinking about doing this for my kitchen cabinets. any advice on that?

Good tutorial , I am in debate between soda vs sand

As for good size compressor ? you need 60 gallon with 2 stage not single stage .. single stage compressors simply dont cut it for blasting and 5 hp minimum and you want to tweak your low side compressor turn on so it turns on when psi drops to 100 and run 120 PSI ... as long as you have a decent length from compressor to your dryer and line you might have a 20 PSI drop in line pressure before your cabinet so at your nozzle you will see 90 psi give or take do not set up your system so you got 90 PSI at the compressor because you are looking at less then 70 at your cabinet. Do not skimp on your air compressor take care of it and you will easily get 30 plus years of service.

How many CFM is your compressor?

I enjoyed this but found it lacking in tech info. 9 CFM but at what PSI? "Get a gun with small nozzle"? What is small? 1/8"? 1/4"? By simply adding little details like this you would change a good video into an excellent video. Just me. :-)

I get my baking soda at Costco. 13# bag cheap.

How far along are you son? Looks like about 6 months. LOL!

It was definitely full of pain watching this sorry 😞

it was looking informative until you mentions "until harbor freight came out with this..." as if that could be a good thing. I get it that in order to survive extravagantly in our society, one has to cleverly evolve in ways to screw or basically cheat your customers. And that's where harbor freight comes in. I just can't buy or support junk that wont last. I rather my grand kids use the tools my grandfathers used, and for those tool manufacturers to still be around.

Harbor freight has got me through alot if projects and saved me tons. I know some of their tools aren't quality, I buy milwaukee for power, but all the little tools to help me with bearings, many more auto and even decent welding equip puts more food on my famines table. I do miss sears though.
