I am building a trailer mounted bbq smoker. I need to sand blast the trailer and the smoker body as well as a couple large grills.
I cannot find large quanities of sand blast media. I can get 25# buckets at Tractor supply at $1/pound but I have to blast outside and will not be able to recover the media. Therefore I need something that will be inexpensive enough to let fly.
All of the places that sell sand blasters around me (just outside of Dallas) don't sell the media in large quanities. Everyone tells me to use Playsand from Home Depot. I bought a bag to try and it just plugs up in the hose and is not consistent in size. I did not expect it to work but tried to be sure, it doesn't.
Can anyone recommend a bulk source for me? If there is anyone in the Dallas area that can recommend a place to take it for blasting, I might be able to swing that but would really like to do it myself.
Thanks for any help.
Bob
