Peter, the small units are OK but a good vac system is essential for all
units for a good healthy blasting environment. When I purchased my small
blast unit I didn't see any vac systems for sale.
I bead blasted in my garage 2 years ago and I'm still trying to clean up the
air and timbers in my 3 year old
garage. I had hooked up what I thought was a good idea, a shop vac. Not
good enough.
Any time I use a fan now I get a continuous smell on my clothes. It has to
be in the frame work
cause I have washed the floor several times since.
My point is when buying a blaster look for a vac that is effective with
your blaster. Also remember that
big and powerful is not always the best. The vac that I was using kept
sucking the gloves off of their
platform, not a good deal.
FYI, Mark
