    I bought a different brand. The compressor I am using is more than sufficient. I have used some that are airhogs, but this one I borrowed and it didn't even want to spin, so I oiled it and nothing, spins a few rpm's and locks down. The old IR angle one I used professionally for 15+ yrs before the head finally fell off, so I bought an IR to replace the el cheapo.

    Looked into buying an IR cut-off tool, gonna order one soon. Inectedmav you mentioned spot sand-blasting earlier. I have a sand blaster but what abrasive should I use in it?
