You need to contact these guys over here in Ohio. You most likely need a new dust collector. One thing that I can tell you is that a shop-vac used for a dust collector will lose its suction, eventually to the point where it is useless, just like most entry level dust collectors due to the fact that the media is actually passing through the motor blower. The other thing is that play sand is not the same as aluminum oxide. You can talk to anyone at TP tools and they'll assist you with selecting the correct media for your application and different nozzle orifices and materials. They make all of their stuff right on site and everyone there is a car guy that understands quality.
By the way, I'm not sure how close it is to you, but they have a booth at the big swap meet in Carlisle, PA every year as well.Comment

I don't own a blast cabinet, just a pressure blaster. I want to blast some aluminum wheels. Any recommendations on media? Glass? I was figuring I'd blast outside, on top of a tarp or something to collect the media so I can recycle it.
I do know that using play sand is among the most dangerous to lung health. I guess it doesn't take that much sand to cause lung silicosis. So please, blast safely!

you dont want to use sand or shot, plastic beads maybe but I would use walnut shells.
Glass and steel beads will mar the AL surface and the sand and more abrasive stuff will pit and and eat the AL.The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money. -Alexis de TocquevilleOriginally posted by Fusion

I've used 60 and 80 grit combined in a cabinet with pretty good success. Takes a while to do, but only because the cabinet I use has a filtration issue.1991 318i Alpine II - S50/5-lug swapped - track carOriginally posted by BillBrasky
