Hi.
So after looking on this site for a while it seems many of you guys know your stuff, so i'm after a bit of advice on sandblasters.
I've finally managed to start cracking on with restoring my karmann ghia but i'm at the point where having a sandblaster will make life much easier and hopefully speed things up.
I've been looking at the 20 gallon blasters on ebay for a while now and have put off buying one as i'm unsure if they'd be good enough for what i need. Then i spotted this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SAND-BEAD...886?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2ec61ed0ae
So my question is, is it worth the extra money, or will a 20 gallon cheapy, a tungsten nozzle and a few extra ball valves be just as good?
I'll mostly be running it off a 3hp sip compressor for doing small parts, but i can borrow a big road tow job for when it comes to larger areas.
Thanks
