M545 | Abrasive Spot Blaster Gun

I finally got a chance to use this today. I was amazed at how well it worked. Definitely recommend this product. The price is outstanding too

I saw mixed reviews and I was Leary. However, after using it it’s a great machine. I used really fine slag and it did great on the iron gates I had. For the money if it’s a small project then it’s good

Loaded it up with 25 lbs of 70 grit aluminum oxide and set the air compressor to 60 psi (manual said 50-90 psi was its range) and spent 15 minutes blasting paint and rust off a car door frame. Was able to remove almost all of the additional coats of paint and rust, but did not remove the factory base coat (1968 Chevrolet). It was also unable to remove a 1970's era oil change tag that had been painted over.Over all I would not go this route to remove paint again. I will try paint remover on the other door as it cost $40 for the media for just one door.

Nevermind the listing states 'NOZZLES' plural, and "AI" indicates quantity of 'three or four'I received a single nozzle, for 7$ . . . A rip-off

I'm having problems getting it to siphone the media other then intermittent light bursts with no affect. Pressure is set at 75.

I bought this item to replace a worn out blast gun in my HF sandblast cabinet. Other than the color, it seems to be exactly identical. Nice it came with three carbide nozzles. No issues, I recommend.

At first there was a metal shaving blocking the outlet, but once I cleared it, the blaster worked well to remove old paint and rust, using industrial sand. Great for getting in places where an abrasive disk can’t reach.

As a sandblasting gun and hose rated for heavy duty, it should work right the first time. Well simply this product is garbage for me at the moment. The hose bursted under any pressure I put it under (90 psi needed for the sandblaster I was using) so I had to return to the original hose that came with the sandblaster just to feed the air. After that was sorted I realized that the media feed hose wasn't allowing enough flow through it to pick up the media, so I had to reuse the original hose, but kept the metal portion attached for now. The gun itself doesn't even let enough media through it at this point with any tip that came with it to work even remotely close to the original. I only got this because my original gun had cracked around the nozzle (and with some duct tape to hold it tight it worked again) and wanted a good replacement or even an upgrade. I'll work on it some more though to get it to work better because the gun (and only) itself seems to be solid enough that I cam work with it, but until then I'm not satisfied at all.Also the picture was before all the test.
