Media blasting with a mini airbrush

(1/3) > >>

oldschoolace:
Just wondering if anyone has tried it? Seem to be conflicting stories on the net whether its possible but i reckon with fine stuff like soda or fine aluminium oxide powder it should be doable - albeit a bit on the slow side  ???

thinking of this sort of setup

deeman:
Looks very interesting Clint, it would be interesting to see what effect it had on tuffs . What did you have in mind? frames? never had any experience with it but was looking into various forms of blasting when I had my alloy wheel refurbing business. Would be interested in any results you achieve!  :daumenhoch:

oldschoolace:
I was thinking about smaller parts like chainrings, calipers etc. I think the diameter of spray they put out is only 4 or 5 mm so larger stuff would take a good while. Might try and pick one up on the cheap have experiment  :)

MartyC:
Using baking soda it should work well.

I followed this link and built my own media blaster, I do have a compressor at home, but it does work really well for cleaning stuff.
