Things are slow. Did some sand blasting on the coe.

Sand blasting is great for cleaning off rust and old paint. It’s messy, dusty and down right a pain in the ***.

Its great when you find that clean virgin steel. And heartbreaking when the blaster shows you how bad or how much work your cab is gonna need.

I certainly found a few surprises. Both good and bad.

I went through the same on mine but couldn't do it without the blaster. I have a cabinet blaster too I don't know what I'd do without it...one of the handiest tools I have

Yep. I have an alc pressurized blaster and an alc cabinet blaster I added another pressure blaster to the cabinet after years of fighting with the crappy siphon tube setup it came with.

Both are a Huge help in cleaning up parts.

Good morning Rhode Island, happy Tuesday! I bought a Harbor Freight blast cabinet, and a post blaster from Eastwood, I've use the hell out of both of them!
