I came upon a Clarke sandblaster gun, filled it with abrasive, ran the
pressure up to 100 PSI and tried it out. this is a syphon type blaster
that looks a bit like a paint sprayer.

I know when spraying paint folks advise you to have something in the
line to dry the air. Is a dryer necessary if I'm spraying abrasive?

Has anyone had results they were please with using a sandblaster gun?

What part of the world are ya in ??? Florida or some tropical place
with the relative humidity that's close to taking a shower then I
would install a dryer in the airline. If you are in Arizona, with 110f
air and 4 % humidty then the part will never rust/corrode.. G
