    We have a professionally built vapor blaster where I work. It runs about 30% media to 70% water. It also uses a small hose back into the reservoir to keep the water/media mix agitated which really helps with minimising blockages. It has a windshield wiper for the viewing screen with a constant clean water trickle and a clean water hose for rinsing parts inside the cabinet.

    When it comes to silicosis, nothing is overkill.

    Change out the media between ferrous and nonferrous metals.The ferrous metals will pollute the media with rustable partials if you bast aluminum whit it it will imbed into the surface, that will discolor the aluminum over time.

    I have the same cabinet and the black cap on the left side is for a shop vac which takes the vapor away so you can see better. I also replaced the plexiglass with glass and a better nozzle. The cabinet leaks unless you seal it better, I did that when I built it. There is a boat windshield wiper on amazon I put on my side by side that would work on the cabinet. I also use either rain-x or ceramic spray to keep the glass clear. The cabinet is harbor freight. I am also a retired USAF crew chief , F-4,A-7 and F-16. I retired from the 162nd across the street. I enjoy your humor and tech knowledge.

    I’ve been hoping you’d eventually get some kind of media blasting cabinet. They are a major timesaver, especially for we OCD clean freaks. Thank you, Sarah. 👍👍👍

    FYI, vapor blasting does a great job of cleaning old rubber parts and plastics too. I've had an industrial built blaster for about 8 years and NEVER regretted the cost. It's paid for itself during my motorcycle restorations! Glad to see you finally have one!

    If I owned that, a week from now everything in my garage, house, shed, and possibly the shed itself would have been through it and I'd be looking for my next candidate as an excuse to use it. "Surely the kettle will be alright, after......yeah AND it'll look nice. Yeah it'll be fine." I'd get £400 worth of value back from that in about 3 days I reckon. Haha.

    I’ve seen vapor blasters before, but never the finished pieces having been cleaned. That is an amazing piece of hardware. I’m impressed with the look of the parts that were cleaned. Who needs new?

    I predict this new machine will be getting a lot of use!

    Blasting cabinets are so awesome. Even the cheapest thing can be so nice to restore stuff and a time saver.
