mine will spray sand clear down to 50 psi or so, what are you using for sand? it sounds like its plugged up. put the nozzle up against something (I use my leg, but do at your own risk) so when you pull the trigger it forces air down the siphon tube. usually clears out anything in there.

Air supply needs to be short as possible, with big hose and you need to take your quick connects off, as they are to much restriction. The Steel blast nozzles wear pretty quickly. I haven't used mine in years, switched to power washer sand injector. If you are doing a car, or other big project, hire someone with a Soda Blaster.
