When I set my sandblaster up I put in a 220 grit, I now think that it I would prefer something a little more aggressive.
I am wondering the best way to clean out the Pressure pot ...the cabinet will be a bit of a pain to cleanout as it is the
molded plastic (but love that it is leak free) but only a small quarter size hole to get the stuff out at the bottom. so two questions:
can I using the shop vac to get it out of the cabinet
how do I clean out of the pressure pot...

Re: Sandblasting grit
Don't use a shop vac. Tip the pressure pot over and dump the grit into a trash bag inside a box or pail. Same with the cabinet. Don't bother cleaning up the residual grit. Just add 120 grit and start blasting. Save the 220 grit in the corner for some future project.
