There are many different tools that you will need in order to sandblast. First, you’ll need some abrasive blast materials that depend on the specific job you are working on. You will also need an air compressor and blasting respirators to help pressurize the air. Before doing the blasting, it’s important to wear safety equipment and make sure that all parts and components are working properly. Finally, make sure to test the compressed air and nozzle while also positioning the compressor in the proper way.
Key Takeaways:
- Sandblasting requires an abrasive blast material that is fired from a blast pot through a nozzle.
- For safety purposes, a blasting respirator, steel-reinforced footwear, a heavy canvas blasting suit, and protective gloves should be worn.
- Place the compressor on level, stable ground upwind from the work area.
