Has anyone any comments on this sort of thing?

I'm leaving a stone wall in my kitchen exposed, it's been needle gunned and
wire brushed but this hasn't got rid of the last of the (old) paint or newer
rendering in some places. It's mainly "spot" treatment. I've also got a
couple of oak beams to tidy up but it looks like chemical stripping is the
approved way to go rather than blasting. I recognise that this will be a
horribly dusty job. I do a bit of metal work so I thought it might come in
handy. I already have a 6 CFM compressor.

thanks....

IME sand blasting needs a huge power source. I only have experience of wet
sand blasting using a pressure washer. They only 'just' work with a Honda
13hp beast of a machine.

Might be useful as a spotting machine.

Yeah, that's rather my feeling......

Brandon hire do a "pro" type dry sandblaster complete with cyberman outfit,
but claim it needs 200 cfm and their compressors only go up to 15!
