Default Sandblaster ?

Anyone here own a cabinet style blaster ? Ive seen one made in USA in Texas called the Barrel Blaster for $300 plus shipping and have talked to them .They stock them and whatever part that might be needed as well as different kinds of blast media ,I may order one soon .Anyone got suggestions on the best media for my aluminum intake ,it will do soda if that is best .

good luck flash. I know that Eric has the set up you were looking at. And I think he is pretty happy with it.

Still interested in any comments about sand or soda or other media to use on aluminum intake . Still waiting to hear from Nick to see if his blaster is still available.

I've always glass beaded aluminum intakes...works well.
Be sure to completely flush the intake out after...I power washed it.

I don't have a cabinet but did use soda on an aluminum intake. It did a nice job, looked like new when done.
