Taking the rockers and manifold back today i was curious about how much it would be to sandblast them myself or pay someone else to do it but had no idea a machine would be this cheap!
To get in all the nooks and crannies with a wire brush and/or sandpaper etc would take forever and be a nightmare with a shotty job on the tight spaces.
Im assuming with the right abraisive, the psi on this machine would be more than enough to do a quality job on rockers etc?
I guess the question is - does anyone here own or know anyone with something like this and is it worth the investment?
Obviously there is a lot of practice involved to get the right psi, abraisive etc that could take a while, but if i learn - in time i might be able to offer a good service to QLD members if i get my sh*t downpat for a cheap rate. (would also be excellent for the blue shell as well!)
