Been using this with a blaster for prepping car parts for painting. Works great! The comfort level exceeded expectations. Very happy with the purchase overall.
Having used larger units in industry, I honestly wasn't expecting much. I also wasn't sure how well my smallish 5.3cfm@90psi/6.7cfm@40psi compressor would keep up but it does just fine. I don't have to stop and let the compressor catch up any.
The instructions were clear enough, all the hardware was already sorted and labeled. It arrived well packaged and with no damage.
At 50 psi it does a great job with 80 grit glass beads. The trick is use the least pressure you can or you will quickly turn your beads into dust.
Imho, a cyclone dust separator and a water/oil filter are required accessories. My cabinet seals up well enough that when I kick on my shop vac I can't open the door from the pressure differential. The cyclone dust separator is very effective at capturing the dust before it ever reaches the shop vac.
I used the Woodstock W1042 2-1/2-Inch Universal Dust Port from Amazon mounted with double sided tape to facilitate the use of the dust collection system.
I also sourced the NANPU 1/4" NPT Compressed Air Line Filter, 5 Micron Element, Bracket, Poly Bowl, 145 psi from Amazon. I have it mounted at the cabinet and it does a good job of preventing any condensation from contaminating the beads.
I use 80 grit glass beads that I source locally.
I am very satisfied with the product quality, performance and durability, especially at this price point. The comfort level exceeded expectations. The quality really stands out.
I absolutely love these! I get so many compliments on them. I bought 2 of them and place them side by side under my mounted TV. I wish my bedroom was bigger because I really wanted a 3rd. They are great quality. My son even threw one of his toy trucks and accidentally hit the glass door and it didn't even break. Was very surprised. The comfort level exceeded expectations. It fits perfectly in our space.
