r/Sandblasting

Looking to blast small parts with a 4 CFM compressor at home

Just picked up my first air compressor. It's a 4 gal, 4 CFM portable unit from Dewalt. I know this wouldn't be enough to handle heavy blasting work, but I'm hoping it would be sufficient for some light duty, household jobs (cleaning up door hinges, hand tools, bike parts, etc.)

Any recommendations on a small, self-contained unit like the Zendex Speed Blaster, HF Central Machinery 18oz, JobSmart 2lb, or something similar?

Also, what else will I need to get started? I've got a full face respirator and plenty of tarps. It sounds like an air dryer/filter would be helpful but I'm not sure whether a small inline filter would work or if I'd need something more serious.

Sandblasting Stencil

I have a co2 laser and want to cut out a stencil in my laser, then apply it to a glass cup, then sandblast it.

I don’t have a rotary yet.

I’m in Canada. Best product you can recommend that will be co2 laser friendly.

Thank you
