So basically.. I need to strip and paint the bottom of my bus, already done the side bits and most of the inside of the wheel arches. I only need to do the centre section of the bus, under the cab floor, under the fuel tank and behind the engine. I've seen these on ebay... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-10-Ga...Air_Tools_and_Compressors&hash=item1e5e1b6b43 Does anyone know if they actually work? I've got a sealey 50l 3hp compressor. Anyone any ideas if it's worth a punt?
Oh before anyone says, I kind of need to do this at home, can't get the bus sprayed till underside is done, and dont really want to get the bus transported to a shot blasters. So needs to be a diy jobby
Ive got a 9cfm 90 litre compressor and a small blast cabinet. The compressor cant keep up with it. I would think you will get a 10 second burst then have to wait a minute to build back up again
I ran one on a 150 ltr compressor and it worked fine. I could just about do one steel wheel to a refill. I did most parts in a home made cabinet so that I could recycle the media. Then you have to sieve the media back into the pot. It's all a bit laborious really. I would pay someone next time. I sold the pot to @dog, perhaps he's finished with it now......then again maybe not.
