DIY Soda blasting

[89Rallye]

Ive got to strip and clean my front calipers, I was looking for a local soda blaster but came across this instead..

Some of you may of seen it before but then some may not.

I also found this for making a nifty little blasting cabinet

I'll be trying it, I believe its quite hard to by the soda in bulk but apparently they use it in swimming pools?

 

[aspro]

Home made soda blasting kits have been around for a while now. Much safer and easier than sandblasting.

My online concern for you would be once you spend all the time and effort setting this up you may as well just paid someone the 50 quid to do it in the first place. That is unless you plan to do lots of parts in your new mini soda booth.

I understand what your saying but I hate paying people for something you can do yourself, plus like my dad always taught me always buy the best tools for the job (that you can afford) then you always have them when you need them again.

My only concern would be water from the compressor because I know proper soda blast units have huge driers
