i bought one too, not expecting much tho.

gonna try it on some fairings

from reading this if you remove the shroad and bag from the front it increases its effectivness greatly.

by the way as idea, my cousin kept a fridge that was being thrown out.
he converted it to a blasting cabinet.
the fridge was on its back and a glass window siliconed to the door.
he rigged the light to stay on.
it is really handy to open and change parts.

take the bag and nozzle off , replace it with a male air connection , it screws straight in , then it works very well , well worth the money .

i used baking soda to clean the paint off my engine casings, worked very well it gives a very smooth finish. used about 3kg at €1/kg so its cheap.

I take it you used the baking soda as the blasting matierial to clean your engine, what did you use to blast it with? I've seen a couple of home made gizmos on U Tube but they don't look up to much.

ye i just got a bit of flexible 10mm plastic pipe, cut a small slit in it about 2" from the end and shoved the normal air blow gun in. then put the other end in a bucket of baking soda and when ye pull the trigger it sucks it up. it worked perfectly and i was using the aldi compressor.
