Ooooooooooooooooooooooooo yes you will.

Pressure pot all the way

What about if the syphon fed blaster is £40 and the pressure pot is £90?

And worth every penny extra.

Having used both you're on a hiding to nowhere using that syphon gun for any serious amount of blasting.

If you only do one job the pot will have a much greater resale value.

You only pay that once. You'll no doubt be using the thing more than once!!

It's your call, from experience I know which one I'd go for

suction guns arent a patch on presure fed pots but there again both have there uses. i have a decent suction gun i made and gets used regular for cleaning parts and tools up that i dont want damaged . using a fine media a bit corser than beads then finish of in the beadblasting cabinet
