Picking shot blasting kit depends on what you're cleaning and where. Handheld guns are portable and cheap but throw media everywhere — fine outdoors or in a booth, messy anywhere else. Cabinets contain the blast and recycle the media, keeping visibility better and saving on abrasive. A 37-litre pot suits smaller parts and bench work; 75-litre models handle longer sessions or bulkier items. Both sizes include water traps to stop moisture reaching the nozzle, which clogs media and kills blast pressure.

Nozzle size changes aggression and air demand. A 6mm nozzle moves enough media to strip paint or light rust without needing a giant compressor. Contoured or angled nozzles help when you're working tight corners or inside tubes. Keep spares — ceramic or boron carbide nozzles wear oval after a few hours of hard use, and an oval bore throws an uneven pattern.

Match your media to the job. Aluminium oxide cuts faster than glass bead and works for heavy rust or mill scale. Glass bead leaves a smoother finish and doesn't embed, useful before powder coat. Blasting soda is softer again, for alloy or thin panels where you don't want to pit the base metal. Grit size matters: coarse (24–40 mesh) strips quickly, fine (80–120 mesh) profiles the surface without deep etching. Reusing media works until it breaks down into dust — sieve it after a few runs or the cabinet fills with powder and visibility drops.
