A sand blaster is a machine that mixes abrasive grains with a jet of compressed air and allows the user point the jet at the part, causing the surface of the part to wear away. This results in a clean, though roughened part surface free of paint, rust, and other forms of dirt. For smaller parts the blast gun is contained in a cabinet sealed off from the outside. The user manipulates the tool with thick rubber gloves that pass through the wall of the cabinet. | A sand blaster is a machine that mixes abrasive grains with a jet of compressed air and allows the user point the jet at the part, causing the surface of the part to wear away.
