Anyone with experience with wet blasting and getting all the rust out of panels? Is it aggressive enough to dig all the black rust deep in the pores of a panel? Would it remove this to raw metal?
Curious why you are considering dustless blasting over conventional blasting.

Screw it.... just ordered a real blaster with the money I would have spent for the rentals/taking parts in... I am sure I would not be happy with the job they would have done anyway.....
Nice !!!..............what type of media do you like to use?

EXACTLY! Professional stuff they have just the gun itself is over $1000 so I am hoping they know something about how to make a decent mid range system.Let us know your thoughts on this unit. I have a HF pot blaster that everytime I use it I feel like im going to throw it across the yard!
most issues are wet air, reusing media without sifting the garbage out of it. They are all pretty simple machines. You can get a little trigger unit with a hose to put in a 5 gallon bucket for 30 bucks, then buy a new one next time you want to use it.
Big jobs, I put a tarp down, try to work on it, lift a side where you get some media back a few times, but sifting before it goes back in the bucket or pot is key.
Some of you guys in open fields can just lose the sand but us city folk gotta find a way to clean it up.
