    Sandblasting Wheels

    I can't remember which thread it was before, but somebody on here posted a picture of a sandblaster that was an attachment for an aircompressor. Does anybody know where to get one and how much they are?

    you mean particle/bead blasting?

    true sandblasting uses a fine stream of sand at very high velocity that can/will do a lot more than just remove paint.

      Well I want to refinish/paint my bottlecaps (probably black centers). The paint on them is really bad.

        Dude, black is teh pwned!


        But yes, you want to particle blast. And no, I can't help answer your question except to say go to a bodyshop and have them do it for $20.

          My local Harbor Freight store sells them for about $15 (the attachments). I think Home Depot might sell them as well.

              I would also like some info on this subject, anyone in the NW had this done at a local shop they would recommend?

                  i got mine at home depot, works pretty good but makes a huge mess. Throw on some paint stripper first let it bubble up then sandblast...that was my best method

                    How much was it? Which dept. was it in at Home Depot? Did you just buy sand there for it too?
