Hey Paul:
    Try using "Soda" as your blasting media. It can be  swept away & the rain 
will wash it away. No environmental issues (other than  the crap coming of 
the items you are cleaning. 
Benefits 
You can sandblast paint off a car without masking the chrome & windows  
without damage & it cleans away with water. The soda residue will act as a  
rust 
preventive while you wait to paint.
The only draw back is.. Soda will not blast away rust. You have to move up  
to a more aggressive media to do that.
    Good Luck
    Bob

I wish I could say it was my wife, who has to  put up with the sand OUTDOORS
when I sandblast (and some of it gets swept  onto the grass!), but, I hate the
grit all over the place.  Is there any  other sandblasting media which might 
do
a better job for blasting AND can  also be swept onto the grass?  In other
words, I don't want soot or  sparkles or stryrfoam bits in the yard.
Thanks,
