I need a bench-top blasting cabinet to clean-up my donor parts.

Anyone got one I can buy or borrow?

Cheers.

you can buy the cheapo little red ones for about £120 on ebay.. they take alot of stick so id just buy one. ive got one of them and they really do the job as well as U could ask a £120 cabinet to do.

I will say however that you need quite a bit of PSI to get rid of rust easily .

thanks Al

PSI yes but the key point is CFM depending upon the size of your nozzle The greater the CFM the more you can blast..

Is electrolysis the way forward?

Never used it before - any top tips?

I have a Clarke one I want to sell. It was the £120 one and I'll take 50. The top hatch is slightly warped but seals down well enough. I'm in Yorkshire but regularly get to slough/Oxford if that helps.

WHat about this one?

SAND BLASTER NEW BENCH SAND BLASTING CABINET.

Whatever you do with a blasting cab, you will want a decent compressor to run it, unless you drink a lot of coffee (while the air tank refils)
