Sand Blaster Nozzles

[fireman sam]

I've got one of the ebay 10gallon sand blasters. I was using Supafine grit but it was expensive and I now have an endless supply of free brand new Supa grit which is slightly larger That's waht mates are for!). So now I'm getting regular blockages in the nozzle which is really slowing down the work. Can I simply use a larger diameter nozzle? If so where can I get one? Grit is filtered through a seive. Thanks for any advice.

next size nozzle up from 3mmm is 6mm and a 6mm nozzle uses min 60 cfm to 90 cfm of air

I use a tungsten nozzle on my Guyson - it was about £30 but will probably see me out!
